the dilemma of a mother, wife and daughter…

Traditional Chinese Medicine

May 4, 2007 · 1 Comment

During my trip to China last year, I visited a Traditional Chinese Medicine centre and have been interested in learning more about TCM. I’m beginning to become more and more convinced that the drugs in Western medicine could do more harm than good. TCM is mainly based on the yin and yang.  

Yin – cold, dark, being passive

Yang – warmth, luck, being active

When your yin and yang are balanced, you are in an ideal state of health. TCM has been passed down through ages and has a history of over 2000 years.

I’m not sure how appropriate TCM is for little children but I would like to find out more about it. Will update this entry if I find more information on this subject.
