First of all, Chinese medicine is an important part of Chinese traditional medicine, which has different theoretical basis and clinical practice from modern western medicine. The theory of traditional Chinese medicine mainly includes the concepts of viscera, meridians, qi and blood, yin and yang, and five elements.
Traditional Chinese medicine refers to medicinal materials with pharmacological effects extracted from natural plants, animals and minerals. And is prepared by decocting, processing and other processes. The efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine mainly comes from effective components, and it has the functions of warming and nourishing, clearing away heat, eliminating dampness, detoxicating and promoting blood circulation.
In the clinical application of Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine is usually combined with acupuncture, massage, qigong and other Chinese medicine methods to achieve the purpose of treatment, conditioning and health care. Traditional Chinese medicine is widely used in orthopedics, gynecology, internal medicine and other fields when treating some seemingly minor diseases, and has achieved remarkable results.
In order to better apply Chinese medicine, we need to have some basic knowledge. This includes the understanding of the nature and taste of each traditional Chinese medicine, incompatibility and other aspects, as well as the mastery of the efficacy and application scenarios of commonly used traditional Chinese medicines.
In a word, Chinese medicine has made outstanding contributions to human health with its unique theoretical and practical advantages. We should cherish and carry forward the culture of Chinese medicine, establish a more complete knowledge system of Chinese medicine, and promote the application of Chinese medicine in various fields.
