Chinese medicine finds its origin in Ancient China and dates back to around 5000 years. As compared to modern medicine, Chinese medicine takes a completely different approach to diagnosis, prescription, and treatment. 

It is indeed a method of holistic healing that considers the balance of two opposing forces i.e. yin and yang as the source of life-giving energy within a human body. You can navigate to www.sitcm.edu.au to buy traditional Chinese medicine.

Chinese herbs alone include leaves, roots, stems, flowers, and seeds of plants, such as cinnamon bark, ginger, ginseng, licorice, and rhubarb. However, they don’t only include parts of plants but also deer antlers, tiger bones, rhino horns, snake bile, and minerals such as arsenic, mercury, lead, and even asbestos. 

Under the large umbrella of TCM (traditional Chinese medicine), several therapies and practices exist including Chinese herbology, acupressure, acupuncture, chiropractic care and to name a few more. TCM can be effective for a wide range of diseases with multiple causes, including metabolic diseases, chronic conditions such as arthritis, genetic and age-related diseases. 

Today, the western world, especially the UK is fast accepting TCM either as an alternative or complementary medical practice. Each and every organ or structure in your body is a necessary and integral part of the whole.
