1. There are too many people under the guise of Chinese medicine, but there is no technology of Chinese medicine.
You're welcome to say that there are many clinics with signs of Chinese massage or acupuncture, but in fact they can't do anything at all, or they can't see a doctor. It is through such a brand of Chinese medicine that he tries to gain some popularity and carry out some activities similar to health preservation. Anyway, it doesn't matter if he inserts a few unimportant points in the human body, such as Baihui point and Tianzhu point. We don't use Chinese medicine to see a doctor, but teach people to keep in good health through Chinese medicine.
2. The educational characteristics of TCM itself.
It will take many, many years for a qualified Chinese medicine practitioner to recognize medicinal materials from an apprentice, and then make prescriptions and master herbs and decoction. It will take many, many years from what he can't do to when he can treat patients normally. At least, Chinese medicine teachers are similar to apprentices. A teacher can only take a limited number of apprentices, and pulse-taking depends more on the understanding of apprentices and one-on-one teaching by teachers. Western medicine is completely different. Western medicine can become an excellent western medicine through modern education. He can teach dozens or even hundreds of people at a time, just like giving lectures in class.
3. Medicinal materials and drugs in traditional Chinese medicine.
Many herbs in traditional Chinese medicine are similar to folk earthwork. It needs some specific herbs to make this prescription work, but now, many common herbs in ancient times have disappeared, so this prescription has been abolished. Therefore, there are not many Chinese medicine or prescriptions that can really cure the disease. Moreover, Chinese medicine has the requirement of suffering time. Some prescriptions may take half an hour, while others take an hour. Different times have different effects. So it is inconvenient to eat Chinese medicine. You only need to take a few pills to eat western medicine, but Chinese medicine needs to prepare some pots and pans at home, and Chinese medicine is so bad, so Chinese medicine is becoming more and more powerful.
I always firmly believe that it is not Chinese medicine that can cure diseases, but that there are very few Chinese medicine that can cure diseases. Chinese medicine may not see cancer, but there must be ways to treat some ancient colds, fevers, fractures, stomachaches, gastrointestinal problems, or other visceral problems. Just because of many practical factors, doctors, drugs and eating methods, Chinese medicine is not so suitable for popularization.
