Chinese
Medicine, over 2000 years old, is an
ancient form of medicine. Consisting of
acupuncture, moxibustion (moxibustion -
using material made up of "moxa-wool," in
a form of a cone or stick; moxibustion is
used to treat and prevent disease by applying
heat to pints or certain locations of the
human body), herbal medicine, acupressure,
cupping, therapeutic exercise and nutrition,
traditional Chinese
medicine is notated by its principle
of internal balance and harmony, or "chi,"
(life force) regulation through energy channels.
In essence, Chinese
medicine is widely known for its acupunture
techniques and herbology. Founded on the
Yin and Yang principle, the five elements
and Zang Fu, Chinese
medicine is an evolutional treatment
in modern Western civilization. Chinese
medicine also uses Qi Gong and Tai Qi
Chuan in its methodology. Incorporating
supplemental elements in a nutritious diet
such as vitamins, minerals, herbs and other
supplements are fundamental treatments in
Chinese
medicine as well.
Overall, Chinese
medicine can be utilized to treat allergies,
arthritis pain, weight control, quitting
smoking, back injury pain, musculosceletal
pain, fatique, stress, TMJ and PMS. Other
illnesses and conditions that can be helped
with Chinese medicine are digestive problems,
menstrual problems, and urinary problems.
