Chinese Herbal Medicine

Chinese herbal medicine, which is an alternative approach to improving the body’s performance and is frequently used in conjunction with acupuncture for almost any human ailment, has at least 2,500 years of written history. Starting as folk medicine, today it is a complex medical system that shares its theory, diagnoses, and treatment plans with other branches of Chinese medicine. Chinese herbs are used to support the internal processes of the body and as an adjunct to acupuncture to extend and accentuate healing. Because Chinese medicine treats the whole person and not the disease, herbologists like Julie Senko match each prescription exactly to the patient’s condition and needs. One of the benefits of using Chinese herbs in combination with acupuncture is the degree of effectiveness achieved along with the lack of side effects.
