What is Chinese Medicine?
EHIAS MAGAZINE | Tuesday 9 May 2023
Chinese medicine is a traditional medical system that originated in China over 2000 years ago.
It is based on a holistic view of the human being, which considers balance and harmony of the body, mind, and environment to be essential for good health.
The fundamental theory of Chinese medicine is based on the concept of Qi (pronounced "chee"), which represents the vital energy flowing through the body. According to this theory, diseases and imbalances are caused by blockages or disruptions of the Qi flow.
Practitioners of Chinese medicine assess their patients' health by examining their pulse, tongue, and by asking questions about their symptoms, lifestyle, and environment.
They seek to identify imbalances in the Qi and correct them using different treatment techniques.
Chinese medicine is used in many countries around the world to treat a wide range of health conditions.
Here are some examples of treatments found in Chinese medicine:
- Acupuncture
- Moxibustion
- Chinese herbal medicine
- Chinese dietetics
- Therapeutic massages (Tui Na, Gua Sha, etc.)
- Physical exercises (Qi Gong, Tai Chi, etc.)
- Cupping therapy
- Chinese reflexology
- Moxa therapy (application of heat to specific points)
- Acupressure (finger pressure on acupuncture points)
- Sound therapy (use of sounds and vibrations to balance energy)
- Color therapy (use of colors to balance energy)
It is worth noting that these treatments can be used alone or in combination with each other to achieve the best results based on each patient's needs.
