Top 10 Reasons to Take Chinese Herbs
1. Chronic Fatigue
Chinese herbs can help you regain your energy by supporting what the Chinese call the “Qi” or “Life Force” of the Kidneys, the Spleen, and the Lungs. Chinese herbs can also help you to resolve underlying pathologies that may be detracting from your get-up-and-go, such as Dampness or Cold.
2. Insomnia
Instead of taking intense drugs that can be addictive or have other harmful effects, you might want to try Chinese herbs, instead. They work by healing the Liver, Calming the Mind, and Nourishing the Heart Blood. This helps to actually resolve the real root cause of your insomnia.
3. Infertility or Low Libido
Chinese herbs are famous for being able to help increase fertility outcomes and strengthen sex drive. There are so many facets to fertility, but it all comes down to making a patient really healthy. So you have nothing to lose – either a baby shows up, or you feel fantastic!
4. Migraine Headaches
We treat a lot of migraine sufferers with Chinese herbal medicine, and the results are truly impressive, especially when combined with acupuncture. So often the root cause of migraine resides in the Liver. When we heal the Liver using Chinese herbs, we usually see migraines disappear.
5. Indigestion
Gas, bloating, belching, acid reflux – these conditions are really unpleasant, but also really easy to treat with Chinese herbs. The results can be felt very quickly, too.
6. Cough or Asthma
Chinese herbs can resolve a cough or help soothe asthma very effectively. Your herbalist can also help you strengthen your immune system once the respiratory issue has ebated. We don’t want those symptoms coming back!
7. Skin Rashes
Chinese herbs are extraordinarily effective at treating skin conditions. We have especially good results with eczema and hives.
8. Kidney or Gallbladder Stones
The effectiveness of Chinese herbs for treating kidney and gallbladder stones is something that we wish more people were aware of. There are few things more painful than a kidney stone, but there really is a safe and natural solution that really works!
9. Menopausal Symptoms
Hot flashes, night sweats, and weakening bones are just a few of the unpleasant symptoms that menopause can bring about. Fortunately, the Chinese have been helping women to overcome these issues through safe and natural means, without the requirement of hormone replacement therapies. Your body just needs help nourishing the Yin of the Kidney and Liver, and we need to gently draw out the Heat.
10. Menstrual Issues
Chinese herbs treat menstrual issues by allowing the smooth flow of Liver Qi, which regulates the menstrual cycle; by nourishing the Liver Blood, which in turn nourishes the Blood of the Uterus,, and by warming the Kidney Qi and dispelling Cold from the Uterus, which helps to stop pain and stuck Qi. Finally, we use gentle herbs to move the Liver Blood to stop pain, and it all makes for a much better menstrual cycle.
