Chinese Health

Chinese health is different from the health model of Western medicine, which identifies a set of symptoms of a disease and uses pathology, drugs, and surgical therapies to suppress or eradicate the symptoms. Unlike the disease-symptom management of Western medicine, Chinese health is based on the balance and harmony of an individual; Chinese medicine has an individualized and holistic approach to health and healing.

Chinese health and healing encompasses not only science, but also philosophy and religion as well.

The science of Chinese health is based on not so much the constantly changing research data as the eternal wisdom refined and perfected over thousands of years. Essentially, Chinese health is science of truth expressed in life.

The philosophy of Chinese health is based on the philosophical thinking of the sage of all ages, seeking the harmony of body and mind.

The religion of Chinese health is founded on the need of mental and physical disciplines to attain sublime states of being in which all aspects of life are enlightened.

Chinese health is a simple practical science of life, and its principles of life are universally applicable to each individual’s daily existence.
