''Since I have started taking herbal medicine my energy levels are a lot higher. I feel better and happier. When I get hurt or catch a cold I seem to heal faster.'' Ricky

Chinese herbs are becoming more popular in North America because they are a natural and effective way of dealing with a number of health concerns such as colds and flus, PMS, allergies, infertlity, muscle/joint pain, and stress issues to name but a few.

Patients benefit from the vast clinical experience and medical research now available on the more than three hundred herbs commonly used today. Chinese herbs can be used safetly and effectivey with Western medical practices, both conventional and alternative.

Formulas to Fit Your Condition

The Wellness Clinic offers two of the most popular forms of herbal remedies: extract powders or granules, and smooth, easy-to-swallow tablets or capsules.

The extracts are swallowed with water or mixed with hot water to make a tea. Tablets and capsules contain either powdered herbs or dried extracts or a combination of the two and are taken orally.

In some cases, the practitioner of Chinese medicine will design a specific formula for an individual patient, which might be changed frequently over a course of treatment. In other cases, one or more prepared formulas are used without modification. The outcome is monitored to determine whether to continue with the current formula, change to another, or discontinue its use.

A Health Status Consultation is required to determine the best herbal remedies for your condition.
