What Is Traditional Chinese Medicine?

Traditional Chinese medicine is a type of holistic, natural health care system that dates back at least 2,000 years to the year 200 B.C. TCM is “holistic” and “natural” because it stimulates the body’s own healing mechanisms and takes into account all aspects of a patient’s life, rather than just several obvious signs or symptoms.

TCM practitioners view the body as a complex network of interconnected parts (part of a larger concept known as Qi), rather than separate systems or organs.

Organs that are especially focused on during TCM treatments include the kidneys, heart, spleen, liver, lung, gallbladder, small intestine and large intestine.

Depending on the specific type, the benefits of TCM therapies range considerably.

Some of the health problems most commonly treated with traditional Chinese medicine therapies include:

  • Chronic pain
  • Arthritis
  • Fatigue
  • Infertility (IVF Support)
  • Headaches
  • Indigestion
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • High blood pressure
  • PMS or menopause symptoms
  • Cancer recovery or chemotherapy
