The Ming Yip Traditional Chinese Medicine Practice

Ming Yip is the only Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practice in western Pennsylvania, which combines an acupuncture clinic with an herbal retail store. Therefore, we can provide both acupuncture and/or herbal consultation.

More importantly, we are among the few clinic/stores in all of the USA, which carry mostly sulfur free herbs. Our herbs are grown in GAP (Good Agricultural Practice) certified farms, which comply with the USDA and FDA standards. Beside the bulk herbs, we carry large variety of concentrated herbal granules, herbal pills and other health supplements. Our herbal granules are in the purest form, with no preservative, coloring, heavy metal and pesticide residue. In addition, 95% of our herbal pills have a GMP (Good Manufacture Practice) award.

Ming Yip is a general practice. We treat a large variety of ailments, and provide wellness maintenance and facial rejuvenation. Our treatments are effective and our herbs are of high quality. We have been trying every means to maintain a modest price for our quality because we want more people be able to benefit from TCM. We are never satisfied with our achievement and we are continuously making effort to excel ourselves.
