TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE

Man receives life from Earth, but his fate depends from Heaven. Heaven and Earth come together to give the man the vital force and his fate. – So Wen

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is an ancient system of theoretical and practical medical knowledge that to a global vision of life in which the individual is considered in his entirety, body-mind and psyche. TCM scrutinizes the minimum beginnings of disharmony and seeks to restore the balance by supporting and encouraging the natural reactions already existing in the human being. This approach considers both the organic aspect than physiological, mental and emotional.

For a clearer understanding vision of TCM compared with Western Medicine, it should be noted that while the latter treats the disease and works on the symptom, the Traditional Chinese Medicine works on the energy imbalance and on the cause of the disease.

The TCM says “Diseases are nothing but signs of an imbalance between humans and the environment." The environment is not only the place where we live, but also the seasons, the climate phase shifts, the working environment, social environment and his relationship with the world. Therefore, the individual is an open energy system, in close connection with the surrounding environment and with whom there is an unending energy exchange.

The health and disease trend is therefore based on man’s and his organism’s ability to appropriately respond to a wide range of challenges, whether they be a germ, a climatic factor, a substance or an emotion.

TCM presents a range of disciplines and techniques directed towards maintain the health and to restore it when it is compromised, TUINA is one of them.


The therapist must cultivate the Heaven and Earth paths, he has to understand human-spirit dynamics and ponder the depth of Nature. Thus, he can grasp the Tao. – So Wen
