What is Chinese Herbal Medicine? For more than 2000 years, Chinese herbal medicine has been used in China as a form of traditional medicine. It is a form of therapy that emphasizes preserving the body''s harmony and balance while adopting a holistic approach. Chinese herbal medicine is built on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM sees the body as a system of interrelated parts that must all work in unison to maintain overall health. These parts are interdependent on one another.
According to TCM, a state of balance between the two opposing forces known as Yin and Yang, which are present in everything, is necessary for optimal health. In contrast to Yang, which stands for the warm, dry, and active aspects of the body, Yin represents the cool, moist, and nourishing aspects. The body is healthy when Yin and Yang are in balance, but disease can occur when they are out of balance.
