In addition, it has a far-reaching influence on the countries in the cultural circle of Chinese characters, such as Japanese medicine, Korean medicine, Korean medicine and Vietnamese oriental medicine, which are all developed on the basis of Chinese medicine.

Traditional Chinese medicine bears the experience and theoretical knowledge of ancient people in China in fighting diseases. It is a medical theoretical system gradually formed and developed through long-term medical practice under the guidance of ancient naive materialism and spontaneous dialectics.

Then get the name of the disease and summarize the syndrome types. Based on the principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment, the treatment methods of "sweating, vomiting, purgation, harmony, warming, clearing away heat, tonifying and eliminating" are formulated, and various treatment methods such as traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage, cupping, qigong and diet therapy are used to make the human body achieve yin-yang harmony and rehabilitation. ?
