River Clinic provides specialist treatments in Women’s Health and Natural Fertility.  Ever since the writing of Compendium of Good Prescriptions for Women” (婦人大全良方) over a thousand years ago, women’s health has been and still is an effective and valued specialization of Oriental Medicine in Asia and abroad.

Traditionally, Women’s Health is divided into 5 categories:

1. Menstrual Conditions (經)

2. Mixed Conditions (雜)

3. Conditions during Pregnancy (胎)

4. Conditions after Delivery (產)
