Do Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners know something Western medicine doctors don’t??? Traditional Chinese Medicine originated in ancient China and has evolved over thousands of years. They use herbal medicines and various mind and body practices, such as acupuncture and tai chi, to treat or prevent health problems. The herbal ingredients used in TCM contain active components that can explain many of their claimed actions.
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may not acknowledge the healing properties found in these products, but the Chinese people have successfully used them in their traditional medicines for over 5,000 years and still use them in their hospitals in China.
