Chinese Herbal Medicine in Marble Falls, TX
Chinese herbal medicine uses tailored combinations of plant, mineral, and food-grade ingredients to support the body between hands-on visits, prescribed to your individual pattern rather than a single symptom. As a Licensed Herbalist as well as an acupuncturist, Julie may pair a personalized formula with your acupuncture and massage care to support sleep, digestion, stress, cycle balance, or recovery. Herbs are powerful and can interact with medications, so every recommendation follows a careful health-and-medication review and is meant to complement — never replace — the care of your physician.

Your visit, step by step
Before
Julie takes a thorough history — your concern, health conditions, and every medication and supplement you take — and may check your pulse and tongue to understand your pattern before suggesting anything.
During
If an herbal formula is appropriate, she explains what it is, how to take it, and what to expect, and coordinates it with your acupuncture, massage, and any care from your physician.
After
You will have clear guidance on dosing and timing. Julie reviews how you respond and adjusts the formula over time — and will always defer to your medical provider on anything drug-related.
Simple, published rates
Prices are current and subject to confirmation at booking. Many clients use HSA or FSA funds for acupuncture — ask about a receipt.

Chinese Herbal Medicine questions
01Is Chinese herbal medicine safe to take with my prescriptions?
Herbs are active and can interact with medications, so safety starts with a full review of everything you take. Julie screens your prescriptions and history before recommending anything and coordinates with your physician. Herbal medicine is a complement to your medical care, never a replacement — keep taking prescribed medication unless your doctor advises otherwise.
02What might herbal medicine help with?
People most often ask about sleep, digestion, stress, cycle and hormonal balance, and recovery. Evidence varies by formula and condition, so Julie is honest about what may help and frames herbs as supportive, individualized care alongside acupuncture, massage, and your medical treatment.
03How is a formula chosen for me?
It is based on your whole pattern — your main concern plus sleep, digestion, energy, and more — not a single symptom. That is why two people with the same complaint may receive different formulas. Julie tailors and adjusts yours over time based on how you respond.
04How much does an herbal consult cost?
Herbal recommendations are handled as part of a consult or added to a visit, and the formula itself is priced separately — ask Julie and she will explain it clearly for your situation. Transparent pricing is a core part of how Palomino works.
