Chinese Herbal Medicine in Marylebone, London

Personalised Traditional Chinese Medicine at Dapeng Clinic

Chinese herbal medicine is a traditional approach that uses carefully selected herbal ingredients and formulations based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

At Dapeng Clinic in Marylebone, London, herbal consultations take an individual approach, considering your health concerns, lifestyle, medical history and personal circumstances.

What Is Chinese Herbal Medicine?

Chinese herbal medicine has been practised for centuries as part of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Rather than using the same formulation for everyone, a traditional herbal consultation considers the individual and their circumstances when discussing herbal options.

Herbal formulations may contain a combination of ingredients selected according to traditional Chinese medicine principles.

The evidence for specific health benefits varies between preparations and conditions, so treatment options and expectations should be discussed individually.

What Can You Discuss During a Consultation?

People often enquire about Chinese herbal medicine in relation to different aspects of their health and wellbeing.

A consultation provides an opportunity to discuss concerns such as:

  • Digestive discomfort and eating patterns
  • Energy levels and fatigue
  • Stress and everyday wellbeing
  • Sleep and lifestyle
  • Women’s health and menstrual concerns

Your practitioner will consider your circumstances and discuss whether herbal medicine may be appropriate alongside your existing healthcare.

What Happens During a Herbal Consultation?

01 — Understanding Your Needs

Your practitioner will discuss your main concerns, health history, lifestyle and any medication or supplements you currently take.

02 — Exploring Herbal Options

Based on your consultation, your practitioner can explain the traditional approach and discuss whether an individual herbal formulation is appropriate.

03 — Personalised Guidance

You can ask questions about the ingredients, how a preparation would be used and any relevant considerations before deciding how to proceed.

A Note on Herbal Medicine Safety

Herbal products can interact with prescribed medicines and may not be suitable for everyone.

Please let your practitioner know if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, are trying to conceive, or are receiving fertility treatment. Check with your GP, pharmacist or relevant specialist before using herbal products in these circumstances.
