How does Chinese medicine work?

Chinese medicine is a truly holistic form of medicine and it aims to treat the whole body rather than just the symptoms. It emphasises the body as a whole, concentrating on strengthening the patient's immune system and correcting the imbalance of the internal organs.

How does Chinese medicine complement western medicine?

Due to the nature of medicines used, western medicine is more effective for acute symptoms while Chinese medicine is more effective on long term illnesses. With certain conditions where western medicine fails, Chinese medicine has more effective results, complete cure being common.

How to prepare your herbal drink

You will be given a certain number of bags. Each bag will be a mixture of different herbs and will be used to make two cups of herb drinks.

The herb drink tastes bitter, yet, if you think about how much you suffered from the illness, the result will be worth it. If you feel it is too difficult to drink, add some honey or sugar to it. To avoid nausea, they should be taken 20 minutes after meals.

To get the best results, please follow these simple steps:

1. Empty all the contents of one bag, including any powder into a large saucepan. An earthenware or enameled saucepan is recommended.
2. Add about one litre of water to cover the herbs completely. Leave the herbs to soak for at least one hour.
3. Bring to the boil then simmer for about an hour (about half a litre of liquid should be remaining)
4. Strain the herbs and pour the liquid equally into two glasses.

Then.....

• If you have been prescribed one bag per day, drink one glass in the evening and the other glass the next morning. Repeat the whole process every day.

        or

• If you have been prescribed one bag for two days, drink one glass in the evening and the other glass the next evening. Repeat the whole process every second day.

From the west of London

• Head towards London on the M40, which in turn merges with the A40 just after its junction with the M25.
• Exit the A40 just after it ceases to be a motorway at "Swakeleys Roundabout" which will be signed to Ruislip, Ickenham and Uxbridge. Take the Ickenham/Ruislip turn.
