Internal Medicine & Herbal · Constitution & Personalized Herbal Medicine
Before the name of the herbal medicine,
we look at what your body needs right now
Even if you feel the same fatigue or discomfort, your lifestyle patterns and accompanying symptoms can differ. At NuA, we prescribe herbal medicine after an examination when it is needed.
Even if you describe the same symptoms, the prescription can differ if your current condition, daily life and purpose for taking it are different.
Personalized herbal medicine · Starting with your purpose
What is 1:1 personalized herbal medicine?
Herbal medicine prescribed for each individual after checking your current symptoms, lifestyle patterns, meals, sleep and more.
Why · Because people differ
Why the prescription can differ even for the same symptoms
We do not decide on a prescription from a single symptom. We check the discomfort that appears alongside it and your living environment, then set the direction of the prescription.
What we check · Four factors
We don't decide on herbal medicine by constitution alone
Constitution is one of several factors that can be referred to in an examination. Rather than prescribing to fit a single constitution type, we look at your current discomfort and the examination together.
Forms · General guidance
Herbal decoctions and herbal pills: the difference
Herbal decoctions and herbal pills differ in how they are taken and in the purpose of the prescription. Which form you need is explained after an examination.
Prescription process · Two tracks
Personalized herbal medicine prescription process
After you start · In 2-week units
Why we check your response after you take it
Our current guidance for non-covered herbal medicine is set up so that it can be prescribed in 2-week portions. Rather than always committing to a full month at once, we see being able to check your progress along the way as an important part of care.
The key to personalization is not adding lots of expensive herbs; we focus on understanding what you need right now and checking your response even after you start taking it.
Consultation · Starting with how you are now
Personalized herbal medicine consultation
Tell us which area bothers you most, such as everyday fatigue, digestion, sleep or women's health. Starting with whether you need herbal medicine at all, we decide together after an examination.
