Herbal Medicine

Like acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine has a long history.  Chinese herbal formulae were recorded in some of the world’s earliest medical books.

There are three important factors to consider when prescribing a herbal formula – quality, safety, and efficacy.  We prescribe herbs in granule form because they are easy for our patients to prepare.  Our herbal medicine is subjected to the most stringent quality control processes.   This ensures that your herbs contain no impurities or substitutions and are correctly identified.

Our herbal medicine meets the Australian TGA's (Therapeutic Goods Administration) quality control guidelines. We are committed to prescribing herbs derived from sustainable sources only, and are certified under the Endangered Species Certification Scheme.

We tailor each patient’s herbal medicine formula to their constitution and presenting condition.  This prescription is then made up in our clinic during your treatment and is ready for you when you leave.

We choose this approach because we are dedicated to providing the best possible herbal formula for each patient.
