What is Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese Medicine, or TCM, is one of the oldest medical forms in the world. Its history is more than 2,500 years. It is the essence of Chinese history, philosophy and medical knowledge. For many Chinese, Chinese Medicine is still the main medical form.
As research continues to deepen and the world's interest in natural products continues to rise, Chinese Medicine is increasingly considered to be an alternative to other forms of medicine in other parts of the world.
The important point of TCM theory is the balance between form and spirit. Physical health constitutes a solid foundation for mental health, including people's thoughts, emotions and psychological state.
Simply put, Chinese Medicine not only treats diseases, but also treats people who are sick. This treatment is based on the concepts of Tibetan, Yinyang and Five Elements.
• Tibetan phase
The literal meaning of the Tibetan phase is the external manifestation of the health status or state of the internal organs.
The Tibetan phase constitutes the basic principle of most Chinese medicine diagnosis. The internal causes of the disease are determined by examining external symptoms, and the corresponding treatment principles are formulated and implemented.
Tibetan refers to the internal location of the organs of the organs, which refers to their external appearance or symptoms.
The organs include the five internal organs (heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney) and the six sputum (the gallbladder, stomach, bladder, large intestine, small intestine and triple burner).
Trifocal refers to the upper part of the body (the upper part of the diaphragm), the middle part (the part between the diaphragm and the navel), and the lower part (the part below the navel). The most important function is to supervise the water metabolism in the body.
•yin and yang
Everything in the universe has two forces that oppose each other and depend on each other - yin and yang, yin and yang are two opposing parts of the whole, interdependent and indispensable. Yin literally means “back yang or inactivity” (such as water, black, cold, night, inactive, female), while yang refers to “sunward or active” aspects (such as fire, light, heat, day, active, male).
In Chinese Medicine, the concept of yin and yang is used to explain the complex interrelationships and constant changes of the human body. All organs and systems are interconnected and interdependent. In general, when the yin and yang are balanced, our body is in a healthy state, but if one force overpowers another, pain and disease can occur. Traditional Chinese medicine uses the concept of yin and yang to diagnose the type of disability and develop a treatment method to restore balance.
• Five elements
The five elements include wood, fire, earth, gold, and water, each of which represents a different character, function, or performance. Everything in the universe can be classified according to this. The five elements are used to describe the relationship between all natural phenomena.
The five elements mainly interact in two cycles: phase and phase. In the phase cycle, various elements assist each other and transform each other, while the phase cycle controls various elements to ensure balance and harmony.
Chinese Medicine believes that mutual care is very important for health care.
