Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine

by Sheila MacNamara (Author), Song Ke (Author)

Synopsis

Clinics and surgeries offering traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and acupuncture are opening in British towns. Patients may benefit from the use of Chinese herbs for conditions where western medicine has failed. Chinese medicine has had success with chronic skin problems, migraine, back pain, arthritis and menstrual disorders. It has controlled side effects of multiple sclerosis and has been used to enhance recovery after strokes. It is now being used alongside western medicine in experimental programmes for the treatment of certain types of cancer. This book aims to clearly explain how Chinese medicine evolved, how the theory works and why it is attracting such attention in the western world. With an A-Z of conditions and their Chinese remedies, this is an easy-to-use manual.
