How much do herbs cost?

-
How do I pay for my treatment?
Payment is accepted by Interac e-Transfer, cash, or cheque.
For e-Transfer, please send your payment to tagyoladler04@gmail.com.
-
Will I be prescribed more than one herbal remedy?
In general I prefer to only prescribe a single formula. In that way I can know exactly what has been taken into your body and can understand what to expect.
However, If your situation is complicated or you have numerous complaints, I may choose to prescribe more than one formula. For example, one formula for your basic underlying constitution and another formula to address your presenting symptoms.
-
How soon will my herbs arrive?
Expect your herbs to arrive by mail within 3-5 days after your initial consultation.
-
Does acupuncture hurt?
Acupuncture is generally not considered to be a painful treatment, and I practice a very gentle style of acupuncture.
Some clients may feel a slight prick or sensation when the needles are inserted, but this sensation is usually brief and fades quickly. It’s not nearly like giving blood or stubbing your toe!
-
Do I call you Daniel or T’agyol? What does T’agyol mean?
I resonate strongly with both of my names, and use them interchangeably.
T’agyol is my Dharma name, which I received when I took Buddhist Precepts in the Korean Zen tradition. It means “Harmonizing of Opposites and Conflict Resolution”.
