  • The essence of Chinese medicine is the same as Chinese learning, which can be summarized in three words, "reality, existence and life". Chinese medicine embodies the ability to follow nature, that is, the purpose of medicine is to save people rather than simply cure diseases. Therefore, how to play self-regulation? Chinese medicine believes that with the occurrence of life, life must have the instinct of survival, and the instinct is given by nature, so Chinese medicine focuses on improving the healing ability of human body, reflecting a holistic balance rather than simply finding the disease or cure the disease.
