TCM theory
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views health as a balance of vital energy called "Qi" flowing through the body via pathways known as meridians. It emphasizes harmony between the body's organs, emotions, and environment. TCM treatments like acupuncture, herbal medicine, and tai chi aim to restore this balance, strengthen the body's natural defenses, and promote self-healing. It’s a holistic approach that considers physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, recognizing interconnectedness within the body and its relationship to the environment.
