Rather than prescribing single herbs in isolation, Chinese herbal medicine is typically administered in the form of customized formulas. At Klinic Amsterdam, herbal prescriptions are individually tailored to each patient, taking into account personal constitution, lifestyle, occupation, age, medical history, and current health concerns. This personalized approach allows treatment to address not only symptoms, but also the underlying patterns contributing to imbalance, in accordance with Chinese medical principles.

​

At Klinic, safety and quality are of paramount importance. We therefore exclusively use high-quality herbal products that comply with strict European regulations. All herbal preparations undergo rigorous quality control procedures, including testing for residual pesticides, heavy metals, and contaminants, before being approved for use within the European market. This ensures that our patients receive herbal medicine that is both safe and effective.

​

To begin a herbal medicine consultation, we kindly ask patients to complete a patient registration form in advance and send it to

​

A herbal medicine consultation at Klinic typically lasts around 30 minutes, while an initial consultation may take up to one hour or longer, depending on the complexity of the case. During the consultation, the practitioner will ask detailed questions about your main health concerns, associated symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, sleep, digestion, emotional well-being, and how your condition affects daily life. In addition to verbal assessment, the consultation may include blood pressure measurement, observation of facial complexion, tongue diagnosis, and pulse assessment, all of which are fundamental diagnostic tools in Chinese medicine.

 

Given the importance of a comprehensive medical overview, patients are encouraged to bring relevant medical documentation, including past or recent blood test results, echocardiography (Echo) reports, ECG or EEG findings, MRI scans, and CT or X-ray images. These records provide valuable insight and allow the practitioner to integrate Chinese medical diagnosis with relevant Western medical information.

​

Following a thorough assessment, the practitioner will provide a diagnostic interpretation from both Chinese and Western medical perspectives where appropriate. Based on this integrated evaluation, a personalized herbal prescription will be formulated to address your specific condition and support your overall health. Treatment plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted according to your response and progress.

At Klinic Amsterdam, Chinese herbal medicine is often used as a standalone therapy or in combination with acupuncture, particularly in areas such as fertility care, hormonal support, chronic conditions, and functional disorders, ensuring a holistic and individualized approach to health and well-being.
