Herbal Medicine Consultation & Products
Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine is an important component of the integrative care offered at Stellar Physical Medicine. Our Scottsdale practice uses individualized herbal consultations to evaluate your symptoms and overall health from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective.
Rather than using the same herbal formula for every person, herbal recommendations are based on an individual's symptoms, health history, and Traditional Chinese Medicine assessment.
