Chinese
herbal medicine is a complex, organized system
of combining natural substances to compose formulas. With hundreds
of substances available and thousands of years of well-documented
clinical experience and guidelines for their uses, practitioners trained
in this ancient art customize formulas to suit the needs of
each individual patient. This process of customization allows the
practitioner to avoid side effects while treating the whole person,
rather than simply singling out individual symptoms with no regard
for their context.Chinese medicine considers the body to be its own healing force. While drugs can help to address symptoms, they cannot take the place of the body's own ability to heal itself. Herbal formulations first focus on the normalization of bodily function and the restoration of balance. With its approach the immune system is strengthened. We can create internal balance, reduce obstruction to the flow of nutrients and enhance the circulation of "Qi" and blood with herbs. Chinese herbal medicine is quickly establishing itself as one of the most popular and effective therapies in the West. It is based on an individualized pattern diagnosis as well as a disease diagnosis. Your pattern is made up of your signs and symptoms, your emotional  temperament
and the overall composition of your body. Our patients receive a custom
herbal prescription designed to treat their individual pattern as
well as the symptom or disease. We must emphasize the importance of
following a health practitioner's advice when taking herbs. Do not
self-medicate with products from health food stores. You could spend
$400 to $500 a month buying everything that is good for you. By the
time you are done, there is a counter full of products to take daily.
This approach is not effective. Dr. Rapkin has put together an Herbal
Medicine Chest to help you easily benefit from essential herbal formulas. |
