Confinement Herbs

At Lao Niang TCM, we are committed to providing the highest quality and safest confinement herbs for mothers and their babies. Here’s how our processing stands out:

• Comprehensive Testing: Beyond the mandatory HSA heavy metal tests, we rigorously check for pesticide residues. We also ensure that our herbs are sourced from pristine lands and that the water used for irrigation is clean and uncontaminated.
• Potency Assurance: We meticulously verify the active ingredients in our herbs to maintain their potency and effectiveness, ensuring you receive maximum benefits from every dose.
• Natural Preservation: Instead of using chemicals and sulfur to preserve our herbs, we utilize refrigeration. This natural method preserves the integrity of the herbs without introducing any artificial substances.
• Safety First: Although our refrigeration method results in higher costs, it ensures the highest level of safety and quality. We prioritize the health and well-being of mothers and their babies above all else.

By choosing Lao Niang TCM, you are selecting products that are carefully crafted with rigorous quality controls and a steadfast commitment to your safety and recovery.

At Lao Niang TCM, we utilise a modern, authentic processing method that sets our herbs apart from those found in traditional herbal shops. Unlike traditional techniques that may over-process herbs, leading to the loss of nutrients, our approach preserves their nutritional value and active ingredients through advanced methods such as:

• Shade Drying: Protects sensitive nutrients from direct sunlight, maintaining their efficacy and quality.
• Low-Temperature Drying: Prevents the degradation of essential compounds by drying herbs at controlled, lower temperatures.
• Refrigeration Technology: Ensures herbs are stored in optimal conditions without the use of chemicals or sulphur, preserving their natural integrity.

Additionally, our herbs are meticulously cut according to their natural shapes to maximise nutrient retention. This careful and precise processing ensures that our herbs maintain both their potency and quality. As a result, herbs processed with our modern techniques retain higher levels of active ingredients compared to those processed using traditional methods for the same weight.

By choosing LaoNiang TCM, you are selecting herbs that are thoughtfully processed to deliver the highest quality and most effective benefits for your postpartum recovery.
