As early as two thousand years ago, Chinese medicine completed the basic system. For example, Huangdi Neijing, which integrates physiology, pathology and treatment, Treatise on Febrile Diseases, which systematically records acute diseases and fever, Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, which expounds the treatment of chronic diseases, and Shennong Materia Medica, which is about the basic theory of pharmacology, are all important documents of basic medicine in China. For two thousand years, Chinese medicine has been developing continuously on these bases. Of course, there are many new discoveries during this period. At present, various detoxification therapies are classified as follows:
First, the soup method-this is the method of using various plants, animals and minerals to treat diseases. Generally, the so-called traditional Chinese medicine includes pills, powders and ointments, but most oral drugs are decoction. Soup can be said to be the general name of medical supplies. There is a saying in our country that "there are four feet, and the table is the only one that can't be eaten". It can be seen that in China, there are many kinds of food, and the materials for making soup are too numerous to mention. As long as the soup can be eaten, everything that can be eaten is food, so there is not much difference between soup and food. Legend has it that Yi Yin, the ancestor of soup, was a prime minister who was born as a chef.
Second, acupuncture-this is a kind of disease treatment method that acupuncture stimulates a certain point (whirlpool). Needles are made of gold, silver, iron, etc. Use wormwood when applying moxibustion. Treating diseases with acupuncture is not only extremely effective, but also painless, which amazed many foreign friends.
Third, massage-massage has three ways: tapping, pressing and rubbing. Many people confuse massage with "massage", which is a wrong concept. Actually, "massage" originated in the west, which is quite different from the traditional massage therapy in China.
Four, guidance-this is the use of medical gymnastics, which is closely related to Tai Ji Chuan.
Five, dietotherapy-short for dietotherapy, this book focuses on this kind of dietotherapy.
Six, others-in addition to the above medical methods, there are external treatment, angle suction therapy, etc.; This shows that China medicine is indeed a profound knowledge. The so-called external treatment is the treatment of sticking the prepared medicine on the epidermis of the affected area; There is also the way of sucking gourd according to yin, that is, angle suction therapy.
