Internet Herb Service

     CommonHealth contains an Chinese herb  pharmacy but it is not a pharmacy in the sense that you can call in and  purchase Chinese herbs directly. There are other places on the internet  if you want to prescribe for yourself and purchase Chinese herbs. Unless  you know what you are doing, really know what you are doing, I would  not recommend you do this. Herbs are generally not as strong or as toxic  as some pharmaceuticals, but they are not entirely without risk. And,  just because you read somewhere that such and such an herb is good for  such and such an illness or condition, does not mean it is right to take  for your particular such and such.

I have been prescribing Chinese herbs for  over 20 years and I can tell you by experience that picking the correct  herbs for anyone is a difficult and tricky proposition. Make no mistake  about it, this is serious business and a form of medicine even if it is  not conventional Western medicine — which has its own difficulties. If  you need prescription pharmaceuticals, you need a physician. If you want  a prescription for herbs, you need a qualified and competent herbalist.  This is where our service comes in.

Finding an herbalist is also not easy.  There simply are not many around the country; and, qualifications and  competency vary greatly.

I am a licensed acupuncturist — L.Ac. — a  Chinese medical practitioner in North Carolina with over 30 years  experience in acupuncture and over 20 years of experience in Chinese  herbalism. I believe Chinese herbs are especially useful in some types  of conditions and not useful in other illnesses or distresses. There are  problems for which Western pharmaceuticals are superior; some problems  for which Chinese herbs might be preferable; and, many times, problems  for which a combination is the best thing for you. You can make a phone appointment to discuss whether I believe I can help or not. There is no charge for exploring the possibilities.

If you would like to avail yourself of my  services, we then put aside a time for an appointment. Most herb  appointments are about one hour in length. I need to take a thorough  medical history and I ask about all the systems of you body, mind and  spirit and then decide what would be most appropriate for you. You need  not live in central North Carolina to access our Chinese herb  prescription service. We can do our appointment over the phone; and, if you have access to Skype we can see each other as well as talk.

I will then send you Chinese herbs. Most  likely you will receive raw herbs and you will need to transform them  into a tea — more formally known as a “water extract.”

This gives everyone access wherever  internet is available to the benefits of Chinese herbs. I am proud to  offer you these services. The price for these services are no different  than if you came to my office. The only additional charge is postage.

Please use the contact information on this  website to set up a consultation to see if herbs are right for you or  set up an appointment to begin the process of using Chinese herbs. You  can send an e-mail or phone CommonHealth.
