Origin<\/p>

The 6 pillars of traditional Chinese medicine<\/h2>

Every culture in the world has developed its own system for preventing and treating illness and maintaining health. These systems are known as traditional or ancestral medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), more than 3,000 years old, is one of them.<\/p>

Its origins cannot be understood without their social context and, above all, without two fundamental philosophical movements: Confucianism and Taoism<\/strong>, whose most influential idea is to live in tune with the cycles of nature, without being carried away by excess and emotion.<\/p>

Since then, illness has been understood as a break in the harmony between human beings and nature. From this idea come concepts such as Qi<\/strong> (vital energy), Yin Yang<\/strong> (the theory of opposites), Wu Xing<\/strong> (the theory of the five elements or phases) and Ba Gua<\/strong> (the eight trigrams of the I Ching, the \u201cBook of Changes\u201d).<\/p>

In short: traditional Chinese medicine is a holistic medical system<\/strong> that focuses both on maintaining health, by strengthening the body\u2019s resistance to disease, and on treating established conditions, with an emphasis on the relationship between the person and their social and natural environment.<\/p><\/div>\n
