Is Traditional Chinese Medicine better? Well, the answer is no! You can not say that one is better then the other, They work both together, next to each other. They work both separate, where Western therapy has no answers, Traditional can! And vice versa.
The approach towards the illness is totally different. In Western perspective the attention lays on the problem area?s and symptoms, in traditional medicine, they will approach the illness totally different. For example in Traditional Chinese Medicine the problem will be searched beyond the symptoms, because the source will be cured, the symptoms will vanish in most cases. Traditional Chinese Medicine watches the total of the human; body, mind and circumstances.
This is one of the reasons why TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) is often used in a preventive way. A TCM therapist says ?keeping a right balance, prevents you from becoming ill?. Where there is a lack of balance in the body (like too less or too much) the body will react on it. With other words you can say that complaints from the body (pain, being tired, coldness etc.) are all warnings that there is something wrong with your life style or this in combination with your circumstances. For example: You can not expect from a person who has a profession as a singer, that this person will use the voice less, it is the job of the TCM therapist, to re-balance the body and energy pattern of this person in a way that the profession of this person (in this case singing) will not give complications to the body after many times using the voice in an excessive way. Other examples of chronicle pains that lately seem to appear often due to a different life style and changing circumstances are: Different kind of headaches, mouse arm, overweight, back problems etc.
Of course TCM is not holy, it is also not witchcraft. A good TCM therapist will always forward you to a Western doctor for a diagnose. TCM is therefore very good for people with chronicle pains and chronicle illness. Where Western medication has no answer, it can be treated or relieved by Traditional Medicine.

As we are all different and our body?s react positive or negative on different things, elements, treatments and factors in our daily circumstances. Author: A.
