中药是传统中医的核心组成部分，经过数百年的临床实践不断完善。现代中医日常诊疗中常用的药材约有200种。这些药材主要来源于天然部位，包括叶、根、茎、皮、花、果和种子，每一种都因其特定的治疗特性和对人体的功能作用而被选用。
中药并非单独使用单一草药，而是通常以定制方剂的形式进行治疗。在阿姆斯特丹诊所，我们会根据每位患者的体质、生活方式、职业、年龄、病史和当前健康状况，量身定制中药处方。这种个性化的治疗方案不仅针对症状，还能根据中医理论，调理导致失衡的根本原因。
在Klinic，安全和质量至关重要。因此，我们只使用符合严格欧洲法规的高品质草药产品。所有草药制剂在获准进入欧洲市场销售前，都经过严格的质量控制程序，包括农药残留、重金属和污染物检测。这确保了我们的患者能够获得安全有效的草药。

在Klinic，中药咨询通常持续约45分钟，而初次咨询可能需要长达一小时或更久，具体取决于病情的复杂程度。咨询期间，医师会详细询问您的主要健康问题、相关症状、既往病史、生活方式、睡眠、消化、情绪状况以及病情对日常生活的影响。除了口头评估外，咨询可能还包括血压测量、面色观察、舌诊和脉诊，这些都是中医的基本诊断工具。鉴于全面了解病情的重要性，我们鼓励患者携带相关的医疗文件，包括既往或近期的血液检查结果、超声心动图（Echo）报告、心电图（ECG）或脑电图（EEG）结果、核磁共振成像（MRI）扫描以及CT或X光片。这些记录能够提供宝贵的信息，使医师能够将中医诊断与相关的西医信息相结合。经过全面评估后，医师将酌情从中西医的角度提供诊断解读。基于综合评估，我们将为您制定个性化的中药处方，以解决您的具体问题并促进您的整体健康。治疗方案会定期复查并根据您的反应和进展进行调整。在阿姆斯特丹诊所，中药常被单独使用，或与针灸结合使用，尤其适用于生育护理、激素调节、慢性疾病和功能性疾病等领域，从而确保以全面且个性化的方式促进您的健康和福祉。
6. What happens during the first consultation?
The initial herbal medicine consultation usually takes approximately 60 minutes. Your practitioner will ask detailed questions about your main concerns, associated symptoms, medical history, medication, lifestyle, sleep, digestion and emotional wellbeing.
The consultation may also include blood-pressure measurement, observation of the tongue and facial complexion, and pulse assessment according to Chinese medicine.
Follow-up consultations are usually shorter and focus on your response to the formula and any necessary adjustments.
7. What medical information should I bring?
When available, please bring:
-
A current list of prescription medicines
-
Information about over-the-counter medicines and supplements
-
Information about allergies or previous adverse reactions
-
Recent blood-test results
-
Relevant medical reports or scan results
-
Information about current or previous medical treatment
These records help the practitioner understand your overall health situation. Klinic’s Chinese medicine assessment does not replace diagnosis or treatment by your doctor or medical specialist.
8. Can I take Chinese herbal medicine with prescribed medication?
Herbal products may interact with prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines or supplements.
Please tell your Klinic practitioner about everything you take. You should also consult your prescribing doctor or pharmacist before combining herbal medicine with other treatments.
Separating herbal and conventional medicines by one or two hours does not necessarily prevent an interaction.
9. Is Chinese herbal medicine suitable during pregnancy or medical treatment?
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, preparing for fertility treatment or receiving specialist medical care, please inform both your Klinic practitioner and your treating doctor before using herbal medicine.
Extra caution may be required for people with liver or kidney conditions, bleeding disorders, allergies or complex medication use. Suitability must always be assessed individually.
10. How do I prepare and take the granules?
Your practitioner will provide individual instructions explaining the amount, preparation method, frequency and timing of your formula.
The granules are generally dissolved in warm water before use. However, you should follow the instructions provided with your own prescription and should not change the dosage yourself.
If you miss a dose, experience an unexpected reaction or have difficulty taking the formula, please contact Klinic for advice.
11. How long will I need to take herbal medicine?
The duration varies according to the individual, the reason for treatment and the response to the formula.
Your progress will be reviewed regularly. The formula may be adjusted, continued or discontinued when appropriate. No particular result or treatment duration can be guaranteed.
12. Can herbal medicine be combined with acupuncture?
When appropriate, Chinese herbal medicine may be used by itself or alongside acupuncture, Tuina, lifestyle guidance or conventional medical care.
Your practitioner will discuss which approach may be suitable for your circumstances. If you are receiving medical treatment elsewhere, please keep your treating doctor informed about the complementary therapies you use.
