Chinese Herbal Medicine
Since the doors of China opened to the west, Chinese traditional herbal medicine has been considered a mysterious yet interesting science to westerners. Most people know its existence, but are unsure about trying it.
Chinese traditional herbal medicine is an alternative system of treatment arising from a holistic philosophy of life. It emphasizes on the interconnection of the mental, emotional, and physical components within the body.
It also emphasizes on the importance of harmony between individuals and their social groups, as well as between humanity as a whole.
How does it work?
When a person is living in a unhealthy lifestyle, such as overwork, no enough sleep or in negative mood for a long period, the yin/yang balance in the body is altered, causing blockage or incorrect flow of Qi.
From an external eye, you can easily notice someone who has an unbalanced Qi: the person does not look fit, showing signs of excessive weight, dry hair, nose bleed, abscesses, pocks, bruises and so on.
The doctors of traditional herbal medicine firstly diagnose by what causes the body to be unbalanced and which points in the body are blocked. Then the uses of Points Cupping or Cupping are used to revive these points, and prescribe a package of herbs.
