Chinese Herbal Medicine is both an ancient and contemporary system of healthcare that is undergoing continual development as regards illness and disease. We use only plant substances – flowers, seeds, roots, bark and leaves. We do NOT use endangered species, or any animal or mineral product. Many herbs have well documented pharmacological properties and a wealth of modern clinical research attached to them.
