Western medicine separates the systems
and organs of the body into separate parts, and delves
deeper and deeper into the particles that comprise their
individual matter.
Chinese
medicine views the body and further, the whole person, as a
unified organic whole. Spiritual, mental, emotional and
physical aspects are all seen as interrelated and
interdependent. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a
gentle, all natural, healing modality.
In traditional Chinese medical
philosophy, health is described in terms of balance within
the body, or yin and yang. Yin refers to blood and essence,
while yang refers to vital warmth and Chi. Chi is energy,
the life force that flows within us. It’s probably best
described as energy resulting from metabolic activity.
According to Chinese philosophy, there are two basic
principles, and while they sometimes oppose, they are
nevertheless, dependent upon each other. Although yin and
yang may at time be opposites, they are not hostile to each
other, each has need of the other, for without one, the
other could not exist, nor is one superior to the other.
Man
is considered to be a microcosm of the universe, and
subject to the same laws. The forces of yin and yang are
expressed in the body through such things as
contraction and dilation of the heart, inhaling and
exhaling of the lungs, and the opposites of waking and
sleeping. One of the most important concepts that form yin
and yang is that of wholeness. The basic idea is that any
system of our body is inseparable from the others. When one
organ becomes unhealthy, the others are disturbed as well.
While treating one part of the body, one must pay attention
to the other systems of the body, and take heed not to hurt
the other organs. Diseases arise because of deficiency or
imbalance of the vital energy in our organs, and their
associated systems.
An example of this philosophy can be
seen in how the Chinese deal with shortness of breath. When
considering shortness of breath, Chinese Doctors say the
spleen must also be strengthened so that it can support the
lungs. So when dealing with this condition, rather than
simply addressing the lungs, they also prescribe treating
the spleen. This ‘ whole systems” approach is what
distinguishes Chinese herbal practices from Western
medicine.
The
Chinese have been refining their formulas performing for
5,000 years, and have been doing their “ product tests” on
people, not animals. Tiens (Tianshi) has taken the best
from centuries of these all-natural Chinese herbal
traditions, and combined this time-tested knowledge with
modern medical practices to create its award-winning herbal
formulations. This 'whole system' is adopted by every
formula in Tianshi’s fine product line.
