Personalize Your Path to Wellness with Natural Medicine, “Kampo”

Health

Specializing in Japanese traditional medicine from shiatsu to natural medicine, the Ido Holistic Center offers various ways to heal your body. Here, Ms. Yuko Nozaki, a Chinese Herbologist and acupuncturist certified by NCCAOM, offers her concoction of kampo, or medicinal herbs, personalized to help restore your body to its optimal condition.

“Like the nutrients in vegetables, when raw, the medicinal properties of the herbs are at their best. Every person has a different body, and therefore different reasons for their symptoms. That’s why natural medicine addresses each problem case by case. Natural medicine is about the combination and ratio of herbs specific to each person, creating a balance. It’s all about restoring balance,” explains Ms. Nozaki.

Diagnosis starts visually such as examining the eyes and the tongue. “A person’s eye is like a window to their internal organs,” says Ms. Nozaki. Then she listens to what is going on around the person’s life, as mental health is also an important factor. Natural medicine is effective for everything from a regular cold to constipation to serious illnesses. About 40% of women who come to Ms. Nozaki come in for reproductive irregularities, which are common in women living in cities prone to higher stress levels. Stress can affect men, too. Ms. Nozaki notes, many men with ED are not always comfortable talking about it, but it is more common than not in high stress environments. Natural medicine allows you to deal with your problems without exposing the body to chemicals that maybe strenuous to healthy organs, and cause side effects.

The consultation only costs $20 and depending on the condition, the personalized kampo range from $50 to $150, for a two weeks supply.

Ms. Yuko Nozaki will find the best formula of kampo for your health.
