Traditional Chinese Medicine

Apa itu Traditional Chinese Medicine?

A classical system of medicine developed in China over thousands of years that uses acupuncture, herbal formulas, dietary guidance, and movement practices to support health and address patterns of imbalance.

Sejarah dan konteks budaya

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) draws on texts including the Huangdi Neijing (Yellow Emperor's Classic of Medicine), compiled roughly 2,000 years ago, and the Shennong Bencao Jing (Divine Farmer's Materia Medica), which catalogues hundreds of medicinal substances. The tradition developed alongside Daoist and Confucian philosophical frameworks and has been continuously refined across Chinese dynasties. Today TCM is regulated as a licensed healthcare profession in China, Taiwan, Singapore, Australia, and many other jurisdictions; Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture are also practiced widely as complementary modalities in Europe and North America. TCM is a living tradition with an active research community in China and globally.

Cara kerjanya

A TCM practitioner takes a detailed case history and conducts a tongue-and-pulse examination — both considered diagnostic windows into the state of the body's organ systems and the flow of qi (vital force). They identify a pattern of disharmony (e.g. qi stagnation, kidney yin deficiency) and select a treatment approach accordingly, which may include acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, or a tailored herbal formula.
