Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine

Improve the chances of success of your fertility journey with Chinese herbal therapy, or Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), at Oakville’s White Birch Clinic.

Traditional herbal medicine has been used to treat ailments for centuries. Chinese herbology was formulated and handed down from generation to generation. It has evolved over the centuries (over 5000 years). Usage of herbal medicine is not limited to curing; they are commonly used to nourish organ systems. Today, Chinese herbal medicine, whether in Oakville or other parts of Canada, has become more mainstream. Its popularity is increasing, and it is being embraced by those who seek natural health alternatives.

Herbs are classified based on their energetic properties, their action in the body, what organ systems they target, and which channels they address. A qualified practitioner understands how the individual herbs work to come together in the most synergistic manner. A TCM herbalist can combine herbs to create a formula based on an individual’s condition. Combining herbs in this way increases the overall benefit of the formula. Herbals come in various forms. Raw herbs, tea pills, granules, and tinctures are the common ones. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. We carry the highest quality, all-natural, and preservative-free tinctures at our in-house pharmacy.

Benefits of Traditional Healing for our Patients

Power

Power

Chinese Herbology is diverse and potent. It is very effective in the treatment of many internal conditions particularly when combined with Acupuncture. Some believe that the true art of Traditional Chinese Medicine lies with herbal medicine.

Reversal

Reversal

Pharmaceuticals target symptoms whereas herbal medicine targets root causes. Herbal medicine has the potential to reverse certain pathological conditions. For example, Chinese herbs can dissolve masses and clear blockages. Western medicine proposes surgical (invasive) options for such.

Safety

Safety

When prescribed by a trained Chinese medicine herbalist, there are rarely any side effects of herbals. Herbs are combined based on organic traditions making them highly compatible. If they ever do present any side effects, they are much milder than seen with the use of Western pharmaceuticals.

Individualized

Individualized

Chinese Herbs can be customized based on individual presentations. That gives Herbal Medicine the ability to address multiple presentations simultaneously with one strategic formula tailored to the individual.

The hierarchy of herbs in the Chinese Herbal Medicine formula

The chief herb is the most significant herb in a formulation. It is the most energetic and targeted to directly address the chief concern of the patient present.

The deputy herbs support the chief herb in its actions. They often address the secondary signs and symptoms.

The assistant reinforces the effect of other herbs. They also moderate the harsh properties that other herbs may present.

How Does Traditional Chinese Medicine Enhance Fertility?

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) takes a holistic approach to fertility, focusing on balancing your entire body’s energy flow to create an optimal environment for conception. Here are some ways TCM can support your fertility journey:

Acupuncture

Thin needles inserted at specific points stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Acupuncture can regulate menstrual cycles, improve blood flow to the reproductive organs, and reduce stress hormones, all of which can contribute to increased fertility.

Herbal Medicine

TCM practitioners may prescribe customized herbal formulas to address specific imbalances related to fertility. These herbs can help regulate hormones, improve egg and sperm quality, and support a healthy uterine lining.

Dietary Therapy

A TCM practitioner will create a personalized diet plan based on your unique needs. This plan may focus on promoting healthy blood flow, nourishing the reproductive system, and reducing inflammation, all of which can enhance fertility.

Stress Management

Stress can significantly hinder fertility. TCM incorporates techniques like acupuncture and acupressure to promote relaxation and well-being, creating a more balanced and receptive environment for conception.

By addressing imbalances and promoting overall health, TCM can work alongside Western medical treatments or as a complementary approach to boost your natural fertility potential.
