Traditional Chinese Medicine was born in primitive society, whose theory was basically
formed in the Spring and Autumn Period.TCM bears the experience and knowledge
of ancient Chinese people in fighting diseases.After the Tang Dynasty,the theory
of TCM and its numerous works were spread to Japan and other places.With Yin-Yang
and Five Elements as the base, TCM explores the cause of diseases by observing,
listening,asking and pulse-taking,providing methods of treatment for patients.
Since the late Qing Dynasty, China has been invaded by western powers and
TCM has been caught in the debate of existence or abolition.These days,
TCM remains the common method to cure ailments in China.
