- Pain Management in TCM
Pain management is an essential component of healthcare, and Chinese medicine offers a distinctive approach to pain treatment that has been used for thousands of years. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) views pain as an imbalance in the body’s energy, or Qi, which disrupts the flow of blood and fluids, leading to stagnation and pain. TCM uses various techniques, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, and massage, to restore balance and promote healing. These natural remedies are often preferred by patients due to their effectiveness and minimal side effects.
