Dr. Heiner Fruehauf


Dr. Heiner Fruehauf is the Founding Professor of the School of Classical Chinese Medicine at National College of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon. He has lectured on 3 continents for more than 30 years, and authored a wide variety of articles and textbooks on Chinese Medicine. His interest in preserving some of the traditional features of Oriental medicine led him to develop a database dedicated to the archiving of classical knowledge, where a selection of his publications can be accessed. Out of concern over the rapidly declining quality of medicinals from mainland China, he has founded the company Classical Pearls specializing in the import of wild-crafted and sustainably grown Chinese herbs (ClassicalPearls.org). He also maintains an active clinical practice, specializing in the treatment of chronic and recalcitrant diseases with Chinese herbs. One of his primary areas of specialization is the development of alternative approaches to chronic inflammations of the nervous system.
