The Shen Nong Society is an organization formed to support the vital and committed community of practitioners of East Asian medicine who design and recommend individualized formulations of herbs and natural products for their patients. These recommendations are based on the over 2000 years of practice traditions that have spread from China to Japan and Korea and throughout East Asia and evolved over time. We are devoted to helping our patients through the use of Chinese and East Asian medicine (or Oriental Medicine), and our community needs to be well informed regarding all issues that impact our ability to serve the public through our practice.

The Shen Nong Society provides educational opportunities including, but not limited to: conferences, websites, blogs, bulletins and newsletters.

Sally fell in love with Chinese herbs first. Then many years later she fell for the classics. After practicing acupuncture and herbs for about ten years, she decided to specialize in becoming the best herbalist that she could be. That continues to be her focus, learning from teachers & colleagues, students & patients, texts and case studies. Her favorite teacher is Sharon Weizenbaum. She teaches with great warmth using the Nei Jing and the Shang Han Lun as the base for clinically relevant practice.
