Herbal Medicine

Herbal medicine incorporates and expands on conventional medicine by adopting the things conventional medicine does well – such as laboratory testing – and choosing a different approach where conventional medicine is lacking. This often means finding natural alternatives and supplements to medicines that create unwanted side effects and inhibit natural processes. Nutritional medicine is predicated upon the belief that the body is capable of powerful healing and regeneration when supported by diet, high quality supplementation, and exercise.

Most clients do best when they commit to the plan for 4 – 9 months. Don’t expect perfect health to happen overnight, but if you stick with the plan, you will notice positive change over time!

Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture Work Together.

Both Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine are part of a holistic health modality that believes in the body’s ability to heal itself from many physical, mental, and emotional ailments. As such, they complement and enhance the effectiveness of each other.

If you are receiving nutritional medicine treatment through proper supplementation, acupuncture can help address chronic pain or stress that you might be feeling. If you are currently receiving acupuncture, then nutritional medicine can help address and eliminate the causes of your pain, stress, or other ailments.
