Oriental medicine acts on the Yang of the body. Another way to describe this is that this medication affects the Qi energy. It is said that Yin and Yang are always connected. Acting on the Yin Yang is affect, and vice versa. If we look at the body fluids, blood, visible and material, would be the Yin and Yang Qi would be, so the old proverb “Blood is the mother of Qi and Qi governs the blood,” would be completely true.

Affecting the Qi, Blood disease is rectified. From the Eastern perspective, there is a deeper, more causal approach to medicine than Western medicine does. The difference can translate into action on the body’s energy or act on the matter of the body. This forms the most significant difference between these two medical disciplines.

It is because of this materialistic approach to medicine, true that many diseases are not understood by Western medicine. Chronic fatigue syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, or fibromyalgia are just some of the common diseases that Western medicine considers “idiopathic”, meaning that its cause is unknown. In Chinese medicine, the cause is quite simple: it is a stagnation of Qi energy flow due to a small variety of factors.

The fact is that the case is not physical, yet the symptoms are. Western medicine may see and measure certain changes in body chemistry and functional activities with their instruments, but can not act to change due to lack of understanding of its cause. The symptoms are too divergent and unrelated from a materialistic point of view. But when it focuses on Qi energy and its properties, all of these conditions acquire a sense perfectly understandable.

These are two different paradigms, two ways of conceiving the world and the human body. Therefore, we suggest that you read the following note, so you can draw your own conclusions.
Within each discipline, there is an enormous amount of information tested and proven, which has its own logic and usefulness. Both systems, Western and Chinese, also have a legitimate space. Some believe that the great strength of Western medicine is in progress on trauma care and therapies for acute problems, while Chinese medicine excels in the areas of chronic problems and preventive medicine.

A central concept in Chinese medicine, which the Western scientific world is still struggling to accept, is the existence of an inner substance called “Qi.” In the West, this could be described as a bio-electric energy. You can not look under a microscope, you can not discern any scientific instrument, can not be isolated or subtract, but that does not mean that one can not feel it or see it. In fact, practitioners of Chinese medicine developed intuitive human conditions after years of practice, to work on it.

Many Westerners may also perceive this Qi energy. The artists sometimes feel as warm the palms of your hands, or warm liquid moving through your body. It is the invisible substance that people take a deep breath to clear his mind in the high mountains.
