Abstract

The traditional chinese medicine (TCM) approach is fundamentally different from that of Western medicine. In TCM, the understanding of the human body is based on the holistic understanding of the universe as described in Daoism, and the treatment of illness is based primarily on the diagnosis and differentiation of  yndromes. TCM has been systematized and theorized in practice and therefore to keep health, many methods were developed during thousands of years. TCM emphasizes that the most important thing is to prevent disease and treat ailment in time so as not to let it become a serious one.TCM has become the academic medicine instead of experimental medicine. For this review of literature, various search engines like pubmed were used. But due to paucity of the literature available, it is intended to produce the best extract of the available content and serve the community.
