Atlanta Chinese Herbal Medicine
With many large-chain drugstores, grocery stores, discount stores, and
multilevel marketers selling supplements, herbs, and vitamins, it is not
surprising that the consumer can become easily confused. In an effort to
assist you in using herbs in a way that is helpful and not harmful, please
note the following:
Responsible Chinese Herbal medicine Prescribing:
- Is done by someone other than self (the hardest person to see is
ourselves).
- Is performed by a qualified, licensed practitioner. Our practitioners have Masters Degrees in Oriental Medicine with over
900 hours in didactic and clinical coursework in Chinese Herbal
Pharmacology.
- Is individually formulated for the patient, not for the disease.
- Utilizes quality herbs manufactured by a reputable company with
strict quality assurance measures in place that test for sulfites and
contaminants.
- Utilizes traditional Chinese formulas that have been used safely
and effectively in China for thousands of years.
Mayway Herbs and Golden Flower are the companies from which we order our herbs. They have been in business for decades. Their quality assurance protocols check for heavy metal contaminants, drug adulterants, and microbial contaminants. Their factories in China and Tiawan are all GMP-certified (Good Manufacturing Process). From independent farmers all over the world, the herbs are generally harvested once a year, processed and packaged in certified factories in Asia, then shipped to Mayway in California and Golden Flower in New Mexico. It is a pleasure to interface with these two reputable companies.
Chinese Herbal Medicine is a powerful method of healing and encourages
healing nature's way. It is frequently utilized along with acupuncture to
restore balance and improve function on a broader path. It's more gradual
than Western Pharmaceuticals, and has fewer side effects. Please feel free to discuss with our practitioners how Chinese Herbal
Medicine may be helpful to you.
