Like acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine is a time-tested tradition used safely for thousands of years by billions of people worldwide. The North Vancouver Pain Clinic integrates Chinese herbal therapy into select treatment plans to support comprehensive, long-term healing.
While acupuncture has a direct, immediate effect on muscles and local tissue networks, herbal medicine works systemically at the level of the internal organs. This makes it an incredibly potent therapy. When combined with acupuncture, herbal medicine can significantly prolong the therapeutic effects of your treatment. It can also be utilized as a highly effective, stand-alone treatment method.
Safe, Professional, and Regulated Care
Chinese herbal medicine is powerful and can generally be taken alongside most Western medications. To ensure your absolute safety, herbs should always be prescribed by a qualified professional. Dr. Brad Matthews is a registered practitioner in good standing with the College of Complementary Health Professionals of BC (CCHPBC).
