Using Chinese Herbal Formulas: Introduction to 55 Healing Herbal Formulas
Herbal formulas provide the basis for treatment in herbal medicine. They are made from the skillful and precise combination of single herbs, each of which plays a unique role in the formula. The primary herbs target a particular ailment or imbalance; the secondary herbs synergistically interact with them to enhance their healing effect, to nourish and strengthen the individual’s overall health, and to offset any unwanted effects. In addition, formulas can be adapted, by adding or subtracting specific herbs, or by adjusting dosages, to match an individual’s special health needs. Again, we encourage you to work with a traditional Oriental Medicine practitioner when you begin using herbal formulas. www.abcnaturalsupply.com
