An alternative and complementary medicine that is thousands of years old, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) includes several modalities, such as acupuncture and chinese herbs, that combined together treat the patient in a holistic manner. It is said that TCM treats the person, not just the disease, and that illnesses may be identical but the persons suffering from them are different.
While TCM is effective in treating illness, there is a strong emphasis on prevention of disease. There are many conditions that Traditional Chinese Medicine can effectively treat. The evolution of TCM into a complete medical system is proven by its endurance for millennia and its continued application today.
