Traditional Chinese Medicine, or TCM, is one of the world's oldest forms of medicine, with a history of more than 2,500 years. It is the essence of Chinese history, philosophy and medical knowledge. It is still the main form of medicine to many Chinese today.
With more research being done, and greater worldwide interest in natural products, TCM is increasingly recognised as a viable form of alternative medicine in other parts of the world.
TCM treats the mind, body and spirit as a single entity. This holistic approach is derived from fundamental beliefs in the Chinese culture, which emphasise the inseparable nature of Man with the Universe, as well as the need for balance and harmony.
When a person’s vital life force, known as Qi (气, pronounced "chi"), flows smoothly through the body, it establishes a balance between his spiritual, emotional, mental and physical realms. Similarly, the person needs to function in harmony with his environment, which includes acclimatising himself to the climate and the changes in his daily lifestyle.
If that flow and balance is upset, disease and illness will arise.
TCM employs a system of diagnosis, therapy and medication to restore that balance by boosting the body’s immune system in an attempt to fight off pathogens.
A TCM treatment usually includes a combination of medicinal herbs, nutritional therapies, physical treatments such as acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, massage or Tuina, and therapeutic exercises such as taichi and related breathing techniques.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been steadily gaining popularity in Singapore. There's a growing number of people seeking TCM treatments like herbal medication, acupuncture, and cupping to treat health problems.
If you're interested in using TCM to improve your health or manage your medical conditions, join Physician Lee Jin Shun as he hosts a QnA session on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in Singapore.
Struggling to conceive? Don't worry, you're not alone. About 15% of the couples in Singapore do not get pregnant successfully within 12 months of trying to have a child. Infertility in 50% of these couples is due to the man who may have a medical disorder.
Many couples are seeking traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment to improve their chances of pregnancy.
Join Associate Senior Physician Lin Jia Yi from Eu Yan Sang as she host a QnA session where she answers all the commonly asked questions about enhancing fertility through TCM.
