In China, there are over 3,200 herbs, 300 mineral and animal extracts,

and over 400 formulas used. Herbal formulations may consist of 4 to

12 different ingredients, to be taken in the form of teas, powders, pills,

tinctures, or syrups.

Chinese herbal remedies are made up of one or two herbs that are said to have the greatest effect on major aspects of the problem

being treated. The other herbs in the formula treat minor aspects of

the problem, direct the formula to specific parts of the body, and help the other herbs work more efficiently.

Before choosing a mixture of herbs for a patient, the traditional Chinese practitioner will typically ask about symptoms and examine the patient, often focusing on the skin, hair, tongue, eyes, pulses, and voice, in order to detect imbalances in the body.

                            Chinese herbal medicine is a major component of Traditional

                            Chinese Medicine. Herbal Therapy uses plants and medicinal                                      herbs to help prevent and treat disease and focuses on nourishing                              the body to restore the balance of energy to mind, body, and spirit.  This practice promotes health and offers an alternative to prescription drugs.
