Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is the general term for the style of medicine that most acupuncturists practice today. It encompasses many different healing methods–the most predominant being acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. These healing methods aim to stimulate and strengthen the body's ability to heal itself. Although TCM considers emotional, psychological and even spiritual factors as root causes of disease, TCM is popularly known for its ability to heal physical ailments such as pain and injury. Using TCM diagnostic tools and theory, acupuncturists aim to assess the condition of the body and the underlying cause of disease. This way, they strive to treat the root (cause) in order to treat the branch (symptoms). This provides for the best chance of a full recovery.
