Personalized herbal medicine, guided by licensed practitioners
Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support digestion, energy, stress, and long-term health.
Our approach rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine
Practitioner-guided care, designed for the individual
Digestive health is where many symptoms begin
Bloating, reflux, constipation, and post-meal discomfort are often signs of deeper imbalance.
In herbal medicine, these patterns are evaluated as part of a broader system.
Common concerns include:
- Bloating or abdominal distention
- Indigestion or fullness after eating
- Acid reflux or heartburn
- Constipation or loose stools
- Nausea or queasiness
- Excess gas or belching
These symptoms are often connected to patterns in digestion that affect more than the gut.
You’ll complete a short intake covering digestion and related symptoms. From there, your practitioner identifies the underlying pattern and builds your plan.
Designed to be simple for you—and thorough behind the scenes.
You answer a short intake—your practitioner handles the rest.

Frequently asked questions
What is herbal medicine?
Herbal medicine uses specific parts of plants—such as roots, leaves, flowers, seeds, and bark—to influence how the body functions, similar to how familiar plant-derived substances like aspirin, caffeine, or fiber affect the body in measurable ways.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbs are combined into formulas based on individual patterns and needs, allowing care to be tailored and adjusted over time. This whole-plant, formula-based approach supports balanced, gradual change rather than short-term symptom suppression.
How is this different from supplements?
Most supplements are standardized and designed for general use, often targeting a single ingredient or outcome.
Herbal medicine takes a more individualized approach. Formulas are customized by a licensed practitioner based on your symptoms, health history, and underlying patterns—and adjusted over time as your needs change. This allows for more precise, responsive care rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.
Why choose herbal medicine alongside or instead of pharmaceuticals?
Conventional pharmaceuticals are often designed to target specific symptoms or biological pathways and can be essential for acute or life-saving care.
Herbal medicine takes a different approach, using combinations of whole plants that are selected, dosed, and adjusted over time based on how your body responds.
Many people turn to herbal care when they’re looking for a more personalized, iterative approach—especially for longer-term or complex concerns—or when they want care that works alongside their existing treatment. Depending on your needs, herbal medicine may be used on its own or in coordination with conventional care under practitioner guidance.
Are herbal formulas safe and tested?
Yes. Your practitioner reviews your health history, medications, and supplements to ensure your formula is appropriate and safe.
All herbs used in Poppy formulas are tested for purity, potency, and safety—including screening for pesticides, microbial contaminants, and heavy metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium.
Testing is conducted using scientifically validated methods aligned with U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) and World Health Organization (WHO) standards, with multiple layers of quality control, including independent third-party testing.
Do I need a prescription?
Yes. Customized herbal formulas are prepared specifically for you and require a prescription from a licensed practitioner.
While dietary supplements are regulated under FDA guidelines for general use, personalized herbal formulas are intentionally provided through licensed practitioners to support safe, appropriate, and individualized care.
What’s included in the $99 care plan?
$99 covers your first three months of care, including:
- Practitioner review of your intake
- Safety screening (including medications and supplements)
- A personalized care plan and custom herbal formula
- Ongoing practitioner support and adjustments
This review is required before any individualized herbal plan is created.
How much do herbal formulas cost?
Herbal formulas are purchased separately and typically range from $120 to $180 per month.
Pricing varies based on the ingredients used and your prescribed dose. You’ll always review pricing and next steps before anything is prepared or shipped.
How long does it take to see results?
Every body responds differently. Some people notice subtle shifts within 2–4 weeks, such as improvements in digestion, energy, or sleep.
More sustained changes often develop over 6–8 weeks, with the full benefits of care typically unfolding over the initial three-month plan. Consistency and adherence to your practitioner’s guidance are key.
Can I message my practitioner?
Yes. You can message your practitioner directly throughout your care.
They may follow up with clarifying questions, adjust your formula as needed, and provide guidance over time—so your care remains responsive and personalized.
Who is this for?
This is for individuals who’ve been dealing with symptoms that never fully resolve and feel like their care has focused on isolated issues rather than the bigger picture. It’s designed for those seeking a more personalized approach—one that looks at the body as a whole system, rather than treating symptoms in isolation.
