Why Plant-Based Matters
Traditional Chinese medicine has historically used animal products. I've chosen a different path — one that's kinder, cleaner, and just as effective.

How Chinese Herbal Medicine Works
Chinese herbal medicine uses combinations of plant materials — roots, bark, leaves, flowers, and seeds — to create personalized formulas that address your specific pattern of imbalance.
With over 300 commonly used herbs in the Chinese pharmacopoeia, formulas are carefully crafted to treat not just symptoms, but the underlying cause of your condition.
Each prescription is tailored to you. As your condition changes, your formula is adjusted — this is the art of Chinese herbal medicine, refined over 2,000 years.
