Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a system of healing that has been used successfully for thousands of years. Built on centuries of careful observation and clinical experience, this healing tradition is now receiving modern scientific recognition. In fact, the World Health Organization recognizes TCM as effective in treating over 70 different conditions ranging from sport injuries to the after effects of stroke. In addition, TCM can help you to achieve an active, healthy lifestyle.
In order to help people interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine get a better understanding of TCM ideas as well as know what to expect from a visit to a practitioner, I made a set of three factsheets.
One who embraces the Dao has wholeness of character,
from wholeness of character comes wholeness of the body,
and from wholeness of the body comes wholeness of the soul.
- Zhuang-zi, Chapter 12, trans Lin Yutang
"We are what we eat." Our diet can either help us regain or maintain a healthy balance, or it can hinder us. I have written a series of factsheets for patients of TCM practitioners. A TCM assessment looks for constellations of key symptoms that fall into different patterns. Once you know what patterns are present, these factsheets provide dietary guidelines and specific food recommendations for common Chinese Medicine imbalances. As well as I have included a general factsheet on a vegetarian diet.
Music, therefore, imbues order & clarity,
Our perceptions brighten, the Qi & Blood become calm & harmonious,
Old habits change & transform, and all under heaven attains peace.
