The Vital Traditions Store

For many thousands of years, Chinese medicine has used medicinal fungi, plants, and other natural materials synergistically with acupuncture.  The mushrooms and plants which are part of the Chinese apothecary have historically been used for everything from immune support, vitality enhancers, anti-aging, treatment for cancers, sexual vitality and health, as well as many other conditions.

It is often regarded that herbs from ones own bio-region are more naturally suited for us than herbs from other parts of the world.
Therefore, here at Vital Traditions we seek to bring locally harvested medicinal mushrooms and plants into the fold as partners in the maintenance of our health.  Working synergistically with Acupuncture and Zero Balancing, medicinal fungi and plants help to re-balance and deeply nourish our body, mind, and spirit.


***Stay tuned as we update this page with more pictures of our products, and more information regarding the cultivation of some of our favorite medicinal mushrooms and plants.***
