San Diego Chinese Herbal Medicine
Extremely intelligent doctors studied, researched and used thousands of herbs, minerals, and other natural substances to treat and cure specific disease processes. These herbs and natural materials were used to treat all disease processes and to promote health. The herbalists would use specific combinations of many different herbs, which increase effectiveness and decrease side effects, to attain a therapeutic effect.
The study of these natural plants, minerals and shells is a very complicated science and study. Herbs are carefully prescribed to patients for their particular needs. If the individual's pattern or manifestation of disease is not taken into account when prescribing herbs, the disease process will either not improve or it may get worse. The effects of herbs are extremely powerful and should not be underestimated. These are safe and side effect free substances, when used and prescribed appropriately.
The academic training and licensure for herbal medicine is an intensive four-year study.
