Chinese Herbal Medicine

Beyond her focus on women’s health and fertility, Lisa also treats other health concerns including pain syndromes, digestive difficulties, and allergies/respiratory problems. Pate Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine LLC offers Chinese herbal medicine—an age-old approach using carefully crafted formulas—in Portland, OR, to address a variety of health issues.

If you and Lisa decide to add herbal medicine to your treatment plan, she will create a personalized formula. This formula is based on a detailed assessment, using a Chinese medicine perspective, that considers your primary concerns and individual constitution. The goal is to realign your system and reduce symptoms.

Unlike a fixed, single-ingredient drug or supplement, a Chinese herbal formula is a dynamic prescription. Lisa will likely modify it as your condition evolves. This tailored approach reflects a core belief in Chinese medicine that each person is unique and that health optimization requires a tailored strategy. It also recognizes the dynamic nature of the healing process. 

Lisa’s Chinese herbal medicine includes specialized support for both women’s and men’s health. For women, she can create formulas to address reproductive health and fertility, including menstrual cycle, hormonal balance, and uterine/ovarian issues. For men, Chinese herbs can be used to enhance reproductive vitality and overall health. These custom treatments are a natural complement to traditional healthcare, designed to work harmoniously with the body’s systems.

Lisa uses Chinese herbal medicine to provide relief from recurring respiratory issues like colds, allergies, and chronic sinus problems. She works to strengthen your constitution by improving your internal systems’ function, which boosts your resilience. Her custom formulas are designed to alleviate symptoms such as nasal congestion, sinus pressure, headaches, chronic post-nasal drip, and frequent colds.

When digestive problems like acid reflux, abdominal distention, pain, and irritable bowel disease disrupt your body’s natural Life Force flow, it impacts your comfort and well-being. Using Chinese herbal medicine, Lisa works to restore this flow, supporting your gastrointestinal health. Her custom treatments are designed to alleviate symptoms and address their root causes, promoting long-term digestive health.

Pain conditions, from neuromuscular pain to chronic headaches, can significantly impact our lives. Chinese herbal medicine offers a holistic approach to pain management, tapping into the body’s natural healing processes. Lisa’s tailored herbal formulas aim to reduce your pain and discomfort, helping you manage it effectively while supporting a more balanced state of being.

Pate Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, LLC’s commitment to high-quality, personalized Chinese herbal medicine can provide a natural path to better health. Lisa looks forward to helping you experience the healing power of Chinese herbs and restoring a renewed quality of life. If you have questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact her today.
