HERBAL MEDICINE
Chinese herbal medicine is an age-old wisdom that makes use of organic plant, animal & mineral substances to promote gentle & effective healing.
At Pyndus Acupuncture & Wellness, we carry & prescribe the highest quality herbs. Chinese herbal medicine does involve some animal products but there are plant based alternatives. Please discuss any dietary restrictions with us!
Generally it is safe to take herbal medicines alongside pharmaceutical drugs, but we check each patient's pre-existing prescriptions to be certain.
Herbal medicine consultations are available as a separate service for $40 per session plus the cost of herbal medicine. If herbs are recommended alongside your acupuncture treatment, you will not be charged additionally for a consultation.
