CHINESE MEDICINE PRESCRIPTION
ROOTED IN NATURE
WHAT IS CHINESE MEDICINE PRESCRIPTION?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) prescriptions are customized formulas using natural ingredients designed to restore balance within the body. Each prescription is created based on an individual assessment of your constitution, health history, and current patterns of imbalance.
HOW IS IT DIFFERENT ?
Unlike many pharmaceutical medications that focus on a single active compound, TCM formulas combine multiple natural ingredients that work together to regulate different systems in a coordinated way, supporting long-term recovery and resilience.
In British Columbia, TCM practitioners are regulated healthcare professionals trained to prescribe formulas based on individual assessment and clinical experience. At Shaun's Zen, we work with trusted suppliers to ensure quality and consistency in every formula.

ASSESSMENT
15-45 min
Your visit begins with a conversation about your current concerns and health patterns, followed by traditional assessment methods such as pulse and tongue observation. First visits take a little longer, allowing your practitioner to understand the full picture before recommending a formula suited to your body.
PRESCRIPTION
10-15 min
Following your consultation, your practitioner will prepare a personalized formula with clear instructions for use at home.
Prescriptions are typically issued in 5-7 day increments, with adjustments made as your body responds over time.
PRICING
Prescription cost varies based on the herbs required and the number of days prescribed. Your practitioner will confirm the cost during your consultation.
◯ $30-$50 / Day
◯ +$30 for First Visit
TCM formulas follow the principle of “Jun–Chen–Zuo–Shi,” where each ingredient plays its role, working together to restore balance within the body.
