It is effective in the treatment and prevention of diseases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000; font-size: 20px;\">Basic Concept of TCM<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366; font-size: 18px;\">The Holistic Concept is the core theory of TCM. The concept includes integrity of the body and its relationship with the outer world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vitalitytcm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/thCA56V95L.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Nature\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vitalitytcm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/thCA56V95L.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366; font-size: 18px;\">TCM holistic approaches are based on the views of whole-body and whole-person, whole-world. Ancient Chinese believe that their existence was closely tied with the universe. Thus they emphasize harmony with nature. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366; font-size: 18px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vitalitytcm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/thCA2QT257.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Man and Nature\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vitalitytcm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/thCA2QT257.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"191\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366; font-size: 18px;\">They also believe that the human body is an organic entity and a balanced whole. Although different organs of human body have different functions, they are both different and interrelated to constitute an integrated relationship. That means a person is a whole unit and indivisible. Thus from the Chinese medicine point of view, local pathological changes may affect the whole body, even whole body surface.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vitalitytcm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/thCAKNKPHS.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Wrist reflect function of organs\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vitalitytcm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/thCAKNKPHS.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"279\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366; font-size: 18px;\">Under the guidance of holistic concept, all aspects must be considered when treating a problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366; font-size: 18px;\">We should make a comprehensive analysis on the patients&#8217; physical condition as a whole, including their age, lifestyles, medical history, career and mental state, etc., to find out the problem, to make a correct diagnosis and proper treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">Diagnostic methods in traditional Chinese medicine include four basic methods: inspection, listening and smelling, inquiry and palpation. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">Through these diagnostic methods, we analyze <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">the causes, nature, and interrelations of the disease, provide evidence for the further differentiation of syndromes, and determine the appropriate treatment and medication. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">Each of four diagnostic methods is indispensable and complementary to one another.
