Chinese Herbal Medicine Melbourne

Personalised Formulas. No Brewing. Easy to Take.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, Jesse prescribes Chinese herbal medicine in granule or pill form, a modern, professionally prepared version of traditional formulas that is precise, effective, and easy to use.
There’s no brewing, no boiling, and no complicated prep, just a simple, ready-to-take dose tailored to your needs.
Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), these formulas are used to support the body’s internal regulation, resilience, and recovery.

What Is Chinese Herbal Medicine?

Chinese herbal medicine uses plant-based compounds — primarily roots, bark, seeds, and leaves, combined into formula-based prescriptions.
These are not “one herb for one symptom” remedies. Instead, Jesse selects and customizes formulas based on your pattern of symptoms, using pulse, tongue, and case history to guide each decision.

The goal is to support whole-body function, not suppress surface symptoms. Herbs can be used to:

Tonify or nourish depleted systems
Regulate digestion, energy or mood
Clear stagnation, dampness or excess heat
Support hormonal and reproductive balance
Assist with sleep, focus, and nervous system tone

Why Granules?

Granule herbal extracts offer the benefits of a traditional decoction, without the time-consuming prep or intense flavours that can turn people off. They are:

Ready to use: no boiling, no mess
Customisable: formulas can be adjusted or refined quickly
Efficiently absorbed: easy on the gut, fast-acting
Dosed accurately: with clear instructions and flexibility over time

Are the Herbs Safe?

Yes. All herbal extracts are:

TGA-compliant, from approved Australian suppliers
Free from hidden ingredients, contaminants or heavy metals
Stored and dispensed under strict hygiene protocols
Only prescribed by a registered Chinese Medicine practitioner

Jesse will also ask about medications, supplements, and health history before prescribing to ensure safety and compatibility.
