What’s in Oriental Herbal Medicine? Made from organic substances such as plants, flowers and minerals, Oriental herbal medicines are the precursors of Western pharmaceuticals. However, unlike the allopathic medicine these herbal medicines have no side-effects and have been proven effective and safe during thousands of years of their usage.
Oriental medicinal techniques include herbal medication, moxibustion, oriental massage and oriental nutrition therapies.

The oriental herbal prescriptions are highly specific in their actions, temperature, and flavor and are carefully combined to treat individual needs. Herbs can be taken in pill, powder, decoction or tincture form.
