I love Traditional Chinese Medicine,it has a long history of 2000 to 3000 years,TCM has formed a unique system to diagnose and cure illness.The TCM approach is fundamentally different from that of Western medicine.In TCM,the understanding of the human body is based on the holistic understanding of the universe as described in Daoism,and the treatment of illness is based primarily on the diagnosis and differentiation of syndromes. The TCM approach treats zang-fu organs as the core of the human body. Tissue and organs are connected through a network of channals and blood vessels inside human body ,Qi acts as some kind of carrier of information that is express externally through jingluo system .Pathologically,a dysfunction of the zang-fu organs may be reflected on the body surface through the network ,and meanwhile ,deseasas of body surface tissues may also affect their related zang or fu organs. Affected zang or fu organs may also influence each other through internal connections .TCM treatment starts with the analysis of the entire system ,then focuses on the correction of pathological changes through readjusting the funtions of the zang-fu organs.To be continued,
