TCM
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic healthcare system that has been practiced for thousands of years in China. It focuses on balancing the body's vital energy, known as Qi, to promote health and prevent illness. TCM includes various practices such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary therapy, and tai chi, all aimed at restoring harmony within the body.
In TCM, health is viewed as a balance between opposing forces, Yin and Yang. Diagnosis often involves observing the patient's physical condition, tongue, and pulse. Treatments are personalized, addressing not just symptoms but also the underlying causes of health issues, making TCM a comprehensive approach to wellness.
