What is
Traditional Chinese Medicine
TCM in an ancient practice — it has been used in Asia for more than 2,000 years. Chinese immigrants began practicing traditional Chinese medicine in the United States as early as the 1820s, but many Americans only became aware of TCM through the practice of acupuncture during the 1970s. Today, acupuncture and other TCM practices are mainstream alternative medicine therapies.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a comprehensive medical health care system comprised of a range of traditional therapies including, but not limited to: Acupuncture, acupressure, moxibustion, herbal medicine, nutrition, tui na massage, tai chi and qigong.
Good health is achieved by maintaining the body in a balanced state. Disease is a sign of an imbalance of yin and yang, and disease-related imbalances could be due to excess or deficiency of yin or an excess or deficiency of yang. Chronic illness is yin dominance, while acute illness is yang dominance. TCM focuses on treating the underlying causes of the imbalance as well as the disease symptoms.
Through its various techniques, which are also called modalities, TCM enhances the body’s natural healing abilities.
