FAQ

Patch testing is the standard recommended before using any topical products. Patch testing allows for the discovery of unknown allergies or sensitivities to the product’s ingredients before using it. To perform a patch test, apply the product to the skin of the inner wrist or forearm and wait up to 30 minutes for signs of reaction. Discontinue use immediately if rash, irritation, or discomfort develops, and contact your healthcare professional.

We recommend using the wash within 7 days for two reasons:

1. A bottle typically lasts about 7 days when following the dosage on the bottle.

2. Opening the bottle exposes it to air, which can affect potency and freshness.

If you have leftover wash after 7 days or want to use a wash as needed, check its texture and smell before using it. If there are no changes and it’s been stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, you can use it at your discretion. However, note that its potency and freshness may be reduced after the 7-day period.

The most effective way to choose the right tincture is by consulting your licensed acupuncturist or herbalist. While we offer general advice by listing common symptoms each tincture addresses, we are unable to provide a comprehensive Chinese medicine diagnosis. Virtual consultations will soon be available. Please be aware that the tinctures we offer can address a variety of symptoms beyond those listed. We have emphasized relevant symptoms for the external washes we provide to facilitate better matching.

We do not recommend this unless advised by your licensed acupuncturist or herbalist. The suggested formulas in our frequently bought together section highlight all available options. It's best to review the symptoms each formula addresses and choose one that aligns most closely with what you are experiencing.

It depends on the severity of your symptoms and the specific formula you are using. If your body has been imbalanced for a prolonged period, it might take longer to notice changes as the herbs and body need more time to restore equilibrium. In general, if your symptoms persist or worsen after a week, it could indicate that the formula or dosage is not suitable. In such cases, reaching out to your practitioner for adjustments is recommended. Following the recommended usage or guidance from your practitioner is crucial to maximize the benefits of the tincture.

Some herbs found in tinctures could potentially interact with prescription drugs such as Warfarin. To avoid any interactions, it is important to discuss all your medications with your practitioner before using a tincture. Generally, tinctures can be consumed a few hours before or after taking prescription or over-the-counter medications to minimize the risk of interactions. Nevertheless, it is vital to seek advice from your practitioner, who has an understanding of your medical background and current medications.
