What it is
What is Chinese herbal medicine?
Chinese herbal medicine is the use of natural, plant-based formulas combined and matched to your individual pattern rather than to a diagnosis label. Two patients with the same complaint leave with two different formulas. Traditional Chinese Medicine treats herbs the way it treats acupuncture points: selected for the person in front of it.
Dr. Tsai reviews your health history, pulse and tongue diagnostics, then builds a customized formula aimed at the root cause behind your symptoms. He adjusts that formula at follow-up visits as your body changes, and pairs it with acupuncture, moxibustion or other therapies in your plan.

Our process
How does Dr. Tsai build your herbal formula?
Dr. Tsai builds a formula in five steps: initial consultation, root-cause assessment, the custom formula itself, treatment and monitoring, and holistic integration. The first consultation takes 45 to 60 minutes, and the formula changes as your body does.
2
Root-cause assessment
Pulse and tongue diagnostics identify the pattern behind your symptoms.
3
Custom herbal formula
Dr. Tsai designs a personalized blend suited to your body and goals.
4
Treatment & monitoring
Clear instructions on dosing, timing and what to watch for as you begin.
5
Holistic integration
Formulas are adjusted over time and combined with acupuncture or other therapies.
Your consultation
Who is herbal medicine for, and what does the consultation involve?
Herbal medicine suits patients with chronic pain or inflammation, seasonal allergies, digestive disorders, anxiety, insomnia, hormonal imbalance, skin issues or women's health concerns. Your first visit is a conversation first and a formula second.
What to expect during your session
Dr. Tsai wants your whole picture before prescribing anything, so the consultation comes before the formula.
- A thorough health history and medication review
- Pulse and tongue diagnostics
- A clear explanation of your formula and how to take it
- Guidance on what changes to expect and when
- Follow-up to adjust your formula as needed

Benefits
What does a custom formula change?
A custom formula changes the root cause behind your complaint, the strength of your digestive and immune systems, and your day-to-day balance. Because each formula is built for your pattern, the effects reach past the one symptom you came in for.

02
Stronger systems

What is Chinese herbal medicine?
Chinese herbal medicine uses natural, plant-based formulas matched to your individual pattern to support your body's own healing process. A formula aims to:
- Address the root cause behind your symptoms
- Support digestive and immune function
- Restore balance rather than mask a single complaint
Is herbal medicine safe? Will it interact with my medications?
Dr. Tsai reviews your full medication and health history before recommending any formula, and flags concerns rather than prescribing around them.
- Formulas use natural, plant-based ingredients
- Sourced with quality and consistency in mind
- Disclose current medications and supplements at your consultation
- Never stop a prescribed medication without talking to your physician first
How long before I notice a difference?
Most patients notice initial changes within 2 to 4 weeks of consistent use. Formulas are adjusted at follow-up visits as your body responds.
