Understanding Nutrition & Herbs as Medicine
Herbal formulas and custom dietary therapy are essential pillars of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). While acupuncture regulates the flow of Qi and blood throughout your nervous system and internal organs, herbs and nutrition supply the essential nourishment your body needs to sustain that healing.
In TCM, food is far more than basic calories—it is targeted medicine. We tailor simple, clear dietary strategies to your unique constitution, seasonal shifts, and the balance of yin and yang. Rather than enforcing rigid diet trends, we look at how different foods directly affect your digestion and internal temperature. Making small, mindful adjustments to your daily eating habits—like choosing warm, easily digestible foods to revive a sluggish gut or soothing options to calm internal heat—helps strengthen your digestion, support metabolic health, and build steady, long-term energy.
Chinese herbal formulas are traditionally created from plant, animal, mineral, and food-based ingredients and combined to work synergistically within the body. Available as teas, tinctures, or tablets, these formulas address both acute and chronic conditions while promoting overall well-being.

“I am a big believer in mixing Western and Eastern treatments in combination with patience and regular exercise to keep me fit. I came to Renew Acupuncture because of severe pain in my lower back and leg. Overtime the pain went away and has not returned. I continue to go to work on other things.
