TCM's cognitive approaches to laws of life activity, and its individualized diagnosis and treatment system reflects the features of holistic medicine. In TCM, man is an integral part of nature. Human body is the entirety of body and spirits. The functional status of the body is the reflection to internal and external environment. To understand this means the complete grasp of the change rules of the life activity. Therefore, TCM doctors not only pay attention to the internal facts (body conditions) but also the external facts (natural environment). Based on this, when facing different people with the same disease, TCM doctors treat him/her with different therapeutic principles, different composition of prescriptions, and different selection of herbs. This is what we call "TCM individualized diagnosis and treatment". This is the secret why TCM can cure diseases.
中医对生命活动规律的认知方法和个体化诊疗体系体现了整体医学的特点。 在中医里,人是自然的组成部分。 人体是身体和精神的整体。 身体的功能状态是对内外环境的反映。 理解这就是对生命活动变化规律的完整把握。 因此,中医不仅要注意内在的事实(身体状况),还要注意外在的事实(自然环境)。 基于此,面对不同的人同病,中医对他/她采取不同的治疗原则,不同的组方,不同的选药。 这就是我们所说的“中医个体化诊疗”。 这就是中医能治病的秘诀。
