For everyone to understand, the fundamentals of Traditional Chinese Medicine reveal a system of compelling logic that can be applied for self-awareness, in everyday situations, and is particularly valuable in medical practice: It is not the disease that takes center stage, but the patient with their individual problems and ailments. Starting from the ancient Chinese worldview, symptoms such as pain, abnormal sweating, appetite and sleep disturbances, inflammation, and much more are interpreted in a way that is understandable within TCM and correlated with modern medical understanding. This is the first step for medical professionals towards the qualified application of TCM - the Chinese syndrome diagnosis.
