Herbology uses organic substances such as plants, flowers, minerals and animal products for medicinal purposes. Herbal formulas are carefully tailored to meet individual’s needs. They gently bring the body back to balance. Unlike many pharmaceutical drugs that offer symptomatic relief, hers used in accord with Chinese medical theory address the root of disease. These formulas can be used in tandem with western drugs or to ameliorate their side effects and can help the body recover from antibiotics, surgery or chemotherapy and radiation. Herbs rarely elicit side effects, they have been proven safe and effective over thousands of years of use.
