Chinese medicine is an extensive system of treatment with roots more than thousands of years back.
Chinese medicine has a well-developed diagnostic system and unlike the western medicine Chinese medicine considers the human body as a whole.
Chinese medicine therefore treats the entire body and not only the sick part of the body or the symptoms. To create balance between the functional entities of the body, the mind and the outside world Chinese medicine uses treatments such as acupuncture, suction discs and herbal medicine.
Chinese medicine diagnosis involves identification of patterns of disharmony, usually by taking pulse and tongue findings into account.
