CHINESE HERBS
The traditional medicine of China has developed over the last 4000 years
and it continues to grow to meet the new health challenges faced by
people in the West today. It has become increasingly popular over the
last few decades as people have realised that it can effectively bring relief
from a wide range of complaints.

It is based on concepts that have proven themselves sound over many
centuries of practice, treating the individual as a whole.
What are Chinese Herbs?

The Chinese Materia Medica used in the UK consists of leaves, barks,
roots, fruits, flowers and grains.
