Alternative Medicine: The Ins and Outs of Non-Traditional Healingsaravananshanmugam64
Introduction
Traditionally, the first response for Americans to any type of medical issue is conventional medicine. There is, however, another option. Alternative medicine is sometimes considered the oldest medicine in the world. Alternative medicine envelops the concept of seeking out non-traditional ways to deal with day-to-day health issues. This type of medicine looks beyond taking medication. People look to use alternative medicine for two main reasons. The first is because of the idea that taking medications can potentially lead to unhealthy results such as dependencies and side effects. The second is because of the natural curiosity of man to find better methods to heal...

5. Chinese system of medicine
The history of Chinese medicine dates back 2757 BC when the first
Materia Medica was written by Shennong. It contains 365 kinds of herbs.
Another legendary hero of Chinese medicine, Haung ti (2697 BC), wrote
canon of Chinese medicine. Chang-Chung- kung a physician by profession,
introduced a treatise on fever, their diagnosis, clinical examination,
symptomatology, course and the treatment and management, along with
acupuncture.
His contemporary, Hua-tu, who employed anesthesia in Chinese medicine,
is believed to be the first surgeon of China.
6. Theory and Basic Concept
Chinese philosophy states that the body is the delicate balance of
two polar and opposite antagonistic and complementary forces -
Yin and Yang.
Yin represents the earth and is dark feminine and passive. Yang
represents the 'Heaven' and corresponds with Sun which is light,
masculine and active.
7. The human body, being a miniature model of the universe,
accommodates these two fundamental forces. One of the major
assumptions of concepts in Chinese medicine is that a diseased
condition is due to an internal imbalance of Yin and Yang.
Disease, therefore, can be treated by correcting the imbalance to
bring the body back to its healthy state.
8. • The ancient beliefs on which TCM is based include the following:
The human body is a miniature version of the larger, surrounding
universe.
Harmony between two opposing yet complementary forces,
called yin and yang, supports health, and disease results from an
imbalance between these forces.
9. Five elements—fire, earth, wood, metal, and water— symbolically
represent all phenomena, including the stages of human life, and
explain the functioning of the body and how it changes during
disease.
Qi, a vital energy that flows through the body, performs multiple
functions in maintaining health.
10. Treatment in Chinese medicine system
Herbalism
Acupuncture
Moxibustion
Massage therapy
12. Diagnosis
Practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine assess a person's overall health
by checking the pulsation of each wrist and by observing the form and
colour of body, face and tongue
Pulse examination provides a clue as regards the part of the body in which
the disease has originated and also whether it is the Yin or the Yang which is
disturbed.
13. It also enables a physician to assess the curability of the ailment.
The observation is interpreted in the context of a patient's past
and present symptoms, complaints, habits, physical conditions,
family history and mental status. Chinese medicine.
14. Side effects and Risks
