Chinese Medicine Practice
The Tao combines within itself the principles of yin and yang, signifying the harmony of the natural order.
To keep in harmony with the Tao is to keep in tune with nature and natural law.
This idea of harmony amounts to a definition of "health".
Chinese Medicine is rooted in this taoistic philosophy: that the human body is a small universe within a bigger universe. Each are close and have an inseparable connection to each other and we must look to nature for references.
Traditional Chinese Medicine, or TCM, is an ancient holistic medicine centered on this concept. The vital energy, known as Qi, animates all manifestations of life in the universe and activates all the processes of the body.
Disease is seen as the result of energy blockages and imbalances.
Thus, Chinese Medicine restores the natural balance of both the body and the mind to achieve equilibrium of Qi.
“To restore equilibrium when energies are in excess or when there is deficiency is the main object of the physician’s endeavors”, states a two-thousand-year-old Chinese medical text.
Each organ, each disease, is seen within the context of the whole. The same disease manifesting in two individuals may not have the same root cause, therefore the treatments are highly individualized. Diagnosis is based upon pulse and tongue analysis, astute observation, and careful listening.
