After 3000 years of development and progress, it is still widely used and spread throughout the world. TCM is a truly holistic form of medicine which aims to activate the innate healing ability of the body and mind rather than to attack the disease, aimed at treatment of the whole body rather than just the symptoms. Chinese medicine holds that many diseases can result from the imbalance of the body's internal environment such as innate weakness, asthenia or disturbance of QI (Chi Energy) and blood, disorder of organ function, blockage of meridians, imbalance of Yin-Yang (the two opposing principles in nature) Chinese medicine concentrates on increasing the immune system and correcting any imbalances of the body and mind, so that it can prevent and cure disease and maintain natural good health.
