Anything that can happen to a human being of any age has happened in the last 5,000 years in China. The ancient and comprehensive TCM system evaluates the entire person, bodily systems, mind and spirit. These are not viewed as separate, but rather different aspects of the unified whole being. Imbalances in any of these areas are looked at as the life force energy (Chi or Qi) being out of balance. All TCM treatments are designed to restore balance to the Qi flow and therefore to the body, mind, and emotions. Please remember that Penicillin is less that 80 years old, yet TCM has texts still in use that are over 3,000 years old!
