Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine Prescription
Ask any of my patients who visit Luminate Mill Valley and they will tell you that Chinese herbal prescription is my trademark which sets the way I practice Traditional Chinese Medicine apart from my peers. This is my distinguishing feature, if you will. It all comes down to finding the style which fits your taste. Some of us are perfectly content with sweet and sour pork and broccoli beef while others seek out more authentic dishes such as Mapo tofu and Ants climbing a tree.
Historically, Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine Prescriptions are the two main tools handed down in Traditional Chinese Medicine toolkit. Here in America, while Acupuncture has garnered a certain amount of acceptance and legitimacy, Chinese herbal remedies has yet to gain the same respect and recognition. Perhaps the complexity causes confusion. Typically, the patient is sent home with bags of raw herbs containing roots, barks, flowers, leaves, and sometimes minerals. But it is precisely the intricacy of creating an herbal blend specifically suited for the individual patient which makes Chinese Herbal Prescription such a powerful tool; due to its ability to address varying complaints all at the same time.
A carefully crafted Chinese Herbal Prescription has the capacity to restore balance on a systemic level when the visceral organs become dysregulated. Each Chinese herb has its distinct function of targeting a specific internal organ, and when used together in an herbal formulation, it has the synergistic effect to remedy a myriad of ailments:
- – Migraine headache
- – Hormonal imbalance (menopausal symptoms including night sweat insomnia, hot flush, mood swings )
- – Gastro intestinal issues including Irritable Bowel Syndrome and GERD
- – Chronic inflammatory conditions including gout and rheumatoid arthritis
- – And chronic skin problems including eczema and psoriasis.
- – and treating anxiety and depression
In my opinion, Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine is joined at the hip. To use one without the other is indeed disjointing.
Chinese Herbs
Chinese herbs are available in various forms:
- – Raw herb formulation ( patient needs to boil herbs on a regular basis )
- – Tincture, and pre-prepared herbal formulas which come in pill or powder.
At Luminate Mill Valley, the majority of my patients are given raw herb prescription simply because this is the most effective way in which I can help them. Often, my patients are seen carrying a big bag filled with individual bags of raw herbs upon leaving my clinic. Sure this requires effort and consumes time on the part of the patient, but why settle for anything less than the best when it comes to investing in your own health and wellness. Here in my clinic, we prefer slow food over fast food.
