Western and Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine
Herbal Medicine
We combine Western herbalism with Chinese Herbalism to create the best fit for one’s wellness goals. Herbal medicine is considered whole plant and sometimes whole-food nutrition. The concept of using whole plants instead of isolated active ingredients allows the body to use the essential phytonutrients and take any of the vitamins, mineral, and cofactors needed to deliver its desired purpose in healing.
Our herbal products are either organic or wild-craftily sourced and are gluten-free. The herbal medicine may be used in the form of:
Herbal extracts (liquid) in either alcohol or vegetable glycerin base
Tea from either infusion or decoction
Salve form for creams
Capsule form
Tea pill form
Granular form (dissolvable in warm liquid)
Foot soaks
Dried herbal blends are used in tea blends that can be easily made in batched for easy access throughout the week!
Capsules are compounded herbal blend into capsule form!
Herbal extracts are great for maximum absorption!
Traditional Chinese Medicine
Nutritional Guidance
Traditional Chinese Medicine uses Whole Food Therapy alongside Herbal Medicine in our everyday lives. TCM Nutrition plays a vital role in helping us heal from the inside-out. Nutrition & proper digestive absorption helps create the key foundation in hormonal health, brain health, energy levels, and easing pain levels such as Arthritis and Autoimmune conditions.
At Thriving with Eastern Medicine & Acupuncture, we believe in keeping things simple. During the consultation, we go over your needs and design a Health & Treatment plan to help achieve the best results for you. For pain, digestive, or hormonal imbalance conditions, we will guide you with a Food Journal to see what you are eating and how it is affecting your health. Then, we can add to your lifestyle to keep it simple, fun, and effective.
Usually, herbal medicine and nutrition will be paired to help with Natural Family Planning for Conception, Fertility, Pregnancy, and postpartum transitions.
