Traditional Chinese Medicine – (“TCM”) is an integral part of Chinese culture. TCM theories originated thousands of years ago through meticulous observation of nature, the cosmos and the human body.

The TCM approach is fundamentally different from that of Western medicine. TCM is well recognized for its remarkable effectiveness in offsetting the side effect caused by the toxic and chemical treatment of cancer cases in the western medical system. TCM has been very effective in the treatment of diseases such as cardio-cerebrovascular, immunogenic, tumours, bone fracture etc.
Treatment is not based only on the symptoms, but differentiation of syndromes. Therefore, those with an identical disease may be treated in different ways, and on the other hand, different diseases may result in the same syndrome and are treated in similar ways.
The clinical diagnosis and treatment in TCM are mainly based on the yin-yang and five elements theories. TCM practices include Chinese medication, radial artery pulse (pulse diagnosis), pharmacology/herbalogy, massage and Qigong.
