Components of TCM:

TCM has four main mechanisms: acupuncture, herbal medicine, tui na and qi gong. Herbal medi­cines are generally delivered in compound for­mulae specially formulated for a clinical syndrome or collection of symptoms. Tui na is the ancient Chinese massage used for lymphatic drainage and muscle rejuvenation. Qi gong is the practice of energy movement in the body through physical movement.
The general theory of acupuncture is based on the principle that there are patterns of energy flow (Qi) through the body that are essential for health. Aberration of this flow is believed to be responsible for disease condi­tion.
Acupuncture is used to correct imbalances if Qi flow at particular anatomical locations just below the skin, the acupuncture points, by the stimulation of a variety of techniques. The studied mechanism of stimulation of acupuncture points employees penetration of the skin by thin, solid, specially tipped, metallic needles, which are ma­nipulated manually or by electrical current.
