East Asian herbal formulas are often incorporated in your treatment plan. Herbal formulas contain a number of herbs that work together to achieve an overall effect that helps carry on your treatment outside of your hour-long visit.

Herbal formulas come in a number of forms (pictured to the left). The most commonly prescribed herbal formulas at Ikigai Wellness are:

• Granule formulas are just like bulk formulas except the dried herbs are crushed into a powder form. They are prepared by mixing in hot water and drinking as a tea.
• Capsules - granule formulas are encapsulated into gelatin capsules (vegan capsules may be available for some formulas).

Herbal formulas are not typically kept in stock at Ikigai Wellness at this time. Prescriptions are sent to Golden Cabinet Herbal Medicinary on SE Hawthorne Blvd for patient pick up (shipping is also available).
