Characteristics of Chinese medicine
The Chinese medicine has a complete theoretical system, and its uniqueness lies in the holistic view of "unity of heaven and man" and "correspondence between heaven and man" and the identification of evidence. The main features are:
That people are an integral part of the natural world, consisting of two major types of substances, yin and yang, yin and yang are mutually antagonistic and interdependent, and are always in motion and change. In the normal physiological state, the two are in a dynamic balance, and once this dynamic balance is damaged, it is presented as a pathological state.
And in the treatment of disease, correcting the imbalance of yin and yang is not to take an isolated static way of looking at the problem, more from a dynamic point of view, that is, emphasize the "constant view". The view that man and nature is a unified whole, that is, "heaven and man are one", "heaven and man are corresponding".
