What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a medical science that originated thousands of years ago. It uses principles of science, including observation and experimentation, to treat patients. These methods have been documented in Chinese medical texts, passed down through generations to the present day. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) focuses on holistic treatment, prevention, and rehabilitation, emphasizing internal balance. The diagnosis is made based on the analysis of disease conditions and symptoms according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles, with treatment outcomes depending on the patient’s physical condition and the nature of the disease.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) values natural sciences, anthropology, and sociology. The treatment approach is holistic, viewing patients as part of nature and society. When external factors impact the body, they can affect internal organs, leading to both acute and chronic diseases. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) aims to treat the root cause of the disease while also addressing the symptoms.
The foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) lies in the Yin-Yang theory, an ancient Chinese philosophy that describes dualities that are interconnected and interdependent. Additionally, the Five Elements theory—comprising wood, fire, earth, metal, and water—explains the origins of all things. These principles have evolved into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which focuses on personalized medicine.
Key Concepts of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) emphasizes two main concepts:
- The Relationship Between Humans and the Environment (整体观念): Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views humans as closely connected to nature. Changes in nature and seasons affect human physiology, as organs are linked through meridian systems. Organs and tissues have specific functions, relying on and regulating each other, sustained by blood and Qi, under the mind’s control to maintain normal life. A dysfunction in one organ can impact others.
- Diagnosis and Treatment Based on Syndrome Differentiation (辨证论治): Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) diagnoses and treats diseases by analyzing symptoms and signs to identify the correct treatment approach. Different syndromes of the same disease require different treatments. For example, the common cold may be caused by either wind-heat or wind-cold, and the choice of herbs or acupuncture points will differ accordingly. Conversely, different diseases with similar syndromes may be treated similarly.
Diagnosis at Praram 9 Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic
At Praram 9 Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, the diagnosis is holistic, involving observation, listening, smelling, inquiry, and pulse examination to thoroughly understand the patient’s physical condition. This leads to accurate diagnosis based on the disease stage. The same patient may exhibit different pulses during each visit, depending on lifestyle, environment, and emotional changes, reflecting the body’s dynamic balance. Diseases are often linked to imbalances such as Yin-Yang disharmony.
