Chinese Herbal Medicine is one of the oldest and most sophisticated healing systems in the world, dating back thousands of years. Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), herbal formulas are carefully crafted to address imbalances in the body, restore health, and enhance overall well-being. Unlike Western pharmaceuticals, which often target individual symptoms, Chinese Herbal Medicine takes a holistic approach, treating the root cause of an issue while also nourishing and strengthening the body.
At
Lotus Acupuncture & Wellness in Merrimack, NH,
Dr. Jasmin Movassaghi specializes in
Chinese Herbal Medicine, incorporating it into personalized treatment plans to help patients achieve
optimal health naturally.
What is Chinese Herbal Medicine?
Chinese Herbal Medicine is a form of natural therapy that uses plant-based formulas, minerals, and other natural substances to balance the body's Qi (vital energy) and promote healing. These remedies come in various forms, including:
✔
Teas & Decoctions – Traditional herbal brews for customized treatment.
✔
Capsules & Tablets – Convenient, pre-formulated herbal supplements.
✔
Tinctures & Extracts – Highly concentrated liquid herbal remedies.
✔
Topical Applications – Herbal salves, balms, and soaks for skin and muscle conditions.
Each formula is tailored to the individual based on their specific symptoms, constitution, and overall health condition.

How Does Chinese Herbal Medicine Work?
Chinese Herbal Medicine operates on the principle that illness arises from imbalances in the body’s energy systems. Herbs work to:
✔
Restore Balance – Regulate
Qi, Yin, Yang, Blood, and organ function.
✔
Strengthen Immunity – Support the body’s
defense system and boost resilience.
✔
Improve Circulation – Enhance
blood flow and oxygenation to promote healing.
✔
Reduce Inflammation – Alleviate
pain, swelling, and chronic conditions.
✔
Support Detoxification – Assist the body in clearing out
toxins and metabolic waste.
✔
Nourish the Body – Provide essential nutrients for
energy, digestion, and overall health.
Each herb has
specific properties and is combined into formulas designed to
target multiple aspects of a condition simultaneously.
