CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE
Chinese herbs are in general very safe, most of which are plants and include
flowers, fruits, stems, roots, bark etc. Practitioners usually prescribe a
combination of herbs, selected to suit each individual's needs. Besides the
traditional method of brewing herbal teas, they can also be taken in a modern
and convenient form - capsules, powder, tinctures, effective plasters or
external ointments.
Chinese herbs alone can be a powerful therapy in restoring
balance and normality and work well as an "alternative" to conventional
medicine.
