How Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Work Together

Acupuncture and herbal medicine work together to restore the body to optimal functioning. While they work together, they also work differently. Acupuncture needles increase the flow of blood, oxygen, and energy through the body. Herbal medications are plants, roots, stems, leaves, and minerals that are taken internally as medicine. Whereas acupuncture enhances circulation and blood flow, herbs are natural energetic substances that gently correct underlying deficiencies and clear obstructions.

Acupuncture and herbal medicine are a fundamental part of our program. At the Wahls of Wellness, we only use the highest quality herbs offered on the market today.  We base the herbal formula on the individual’s diagnostic pattern. These herbal formulas may need to be adjusted at different times during a treatment plan. We individualize our treatment plans, with the ultimate goal of restoring hormonal, digestive, and emotional harmony, rebalancing the body’s energies and nerve flow, and enhancing the overall health and wellbeing of our patients.  Thus our patients can reach their optimum level of health.
