The Basic Contents and Characteristics of TCM Health Care "The Way of Health Care for the Chinese Nation" basically summarizes the health care theory of medicine, diet, religion, folk customs, martial arts and other cultural aspects for thousands of years. Its content is nothing more than the following four points: 1. Let nature take its course: it embodies the idea of "harmony between man and nature". It is emphasized that in the process of health preservation, we should conform to the laws of nature and not violate them. At the same time, we should also attach importance to the unity and coordination between man and society, and man should be unified with the natural environment and society. As Huangdi Neijing said: "Knowing astronomy from above, geography from below, and personnel from the middle can last long." 2. Double cultivation of body and mind: In the process of health preservation, we should not only pay attention to physical maintenance, but also pay attention to mental and psychological adjustment. The so-called "having both form and spirit", "keeping the whole form" and "keeping the form concentrated on the whole". 3. Combination of motion and stillness: Modern medicine advocates "life lies in exercise", and Chinese medicine also advocates "exercise generates yang" and advocates exercise and fitness. However, Chinese medicine also advocates "moving is quiet" and "not acting rashly". As the Zhouyi Biography said, "Motion and static coexist, thinking that everything changes", Jing Lei easily said that "everything in the world originates from motion and static." 4. Comprehensive and thoughtful care: health care is not limited to one method or type, and health care activities should be carried out in many aspects, including body, mind, movement, quietness, food and medicine. In addition, different health preserving methods should be adopted according to different people, different places and different times, so-called "nursing based on cause" and "nursing based on syndrome differentiation". Under the guidance of the theory of keeping in good health, the content of keeping in good health has been gradually established and continuously developed and improved. Its contents include the following seven aspects: 1. Spiritual cultivation: including spiritual and psychological cultivation, hobby cultivation and moral quality cultivation. It combines traditional medical culture, religious culture and folk culture. 2. Behavioral support: including clothing, food, shelter, transportation and sexual life. It combines traditional medical culture, religious culture, folk culture and artistic culture. 3. Supplementing qi: it is mainly the "internal cultivation" of medical fitness qigong. It combines traditional medical culture, religious culture and martial arts culture. 4. Fitness: It mainly includes physical exercise and fitness activities. The content combines medical culture and martial arts culture. 5. Feeding: The main contents are the selection, preparation and application of health food, as well as diet methods and control. The contents include medicine, medicine, food, tea, wine and folk customs. Dietary tonic is one of the main contents of TCM health preservation, which is included in daily life, so it has a wide range of applications and is suitable for more people. 6. Medication: The main content is the selection and preparation of health-care drugs. Its preparations are mostly pure natural edible plant medicines; Its preparation methods are mostly rough blending, and its dosage forms are mostly integrated with food. In ancient times, it was often called "medicated diet" and "legal diet". Its application range is also very wide, suitable for more people, and its nutrition content also involves medicine, medicine, food culture and so on. 7. Skill training: it is a non-food and non-drug health training method other than the above-mentioned health training methods, that is, massage, pushing food, acupuncture, bathing, ironing, magnetic attraction, vessel stimulation and other methods are used for health training. Its content mainly involves medical culture. In a word, the characteristic of health preservation is to emphasize individual behavior, and the methods adopted should be different for different people. The so-called "consideration-based parenting" and "people-based parenting" do not insist on the unity between groups. For example, A needs to pay attention to physical exercise, B needs to pay attention to diet, C needs to pay attention to psychological adjustment and so on. If we indiscriminately ask them to strengthen physical exercise or change a certain diet structure, it may not meet everyone's health needs. The great integration of Chinese and western health care activities The word "health care" is a modern term, which means to keep healthy and defend health. It has a similar meaning to the word "health preservation" in traditional culture. However, there are some differences between the specific activities of western medicine health care and Chinese medicine health care: "health care" is mostly group activities, such as mass health, pest control, vaccination, environmental protection, etc. And "keeping in good health" is mostly personal behavior, which varies from person to person. Group health care activities are rarely carried out, because health care is based on judging the cause or syndrome differentiation. Nevertheless, the object of health care is basically the same, that is, for healthy people, especially those in sub-health state. I don't know when, where and who connected the two terms "health preservation" and "health care" and called them "health care". Now there are books and periodicals, academic groups and even international academic exchange activities on health care. This is a natural reality that is welcomed by the medical, pharmaceutical and health care industries. This is the result of great exchange, integration and convergence of medical and health science and technology at home and abroad. 0
