Chinese Herbs are about $5-6 per day. The initial consultation is $139. Follow up herbal consultations are $50. Frequency of treatment is higher at the beginning until you are on the right track. Then larger batches of herbs are prescribed so you will not be visiting me weekly. Each case is different and discussed at your initial consultation.

Typically, there is a lot of extra heat in the body or blood, and we must get rid of this heat. A by product of inflammation is heat. Cooling herbs are prescribed to drain heat from the body. Each case is different and symptoms are not the same from patient to patient. Spending ample time during the initial consultation is important to determine the correct course of treatment.
