Chinese Herbs for Spasmodic Dysphonia
My cousin recommended a good Chinese doctor and I went to his clinic for a general checkup. He gave me some Chinese herbs to boil and told me to drink the concoction. I saw the assistants make the herbal preparation. They were different barks, leaves and other tree parts. Each ingredient had a different measurement.
It tasted like tea, very bitter tea. But it wasn't that bad. Or perhaps since I'm used to chinese medicine (my grandmother used to let me drink deer's horn extract and other chinese medications), this tea tasted alright.
A closer look would show the barks and leaves:
After 3 days of drinking the concoction, my voice sounds louder and it's not as hard to control anymore! I don't know what these herbs are, but they sure do help :-)

I'd like to know where I can buy these herbs. I'm from the Philippines and I have been suffering from spasmodic dysphonia for more than 10 years. I hope you can give me more information. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi Hannah,
DeleteI thought there were only 3 of us in the Philippines who has SD. I didn't know there could be others.
I got the Chinese herbs from Dr. Tan. His contact # is +632-925-3545. His office seemed to be past Quezon City. I don't know how to get there because my dad always drove me to the clinic. You can call them first and ask for directions.
The herbs would be helpful acid reflux is aggravating your SD. Mine was, so the herbs helped somewhat. But they only help alleviate the voice problem to the point that the acid is causing your voice harm. Beyond that, it doesn't cure it completely. All the best!
