Chinese Medicine, also known as Traditional Chinese Medicine(medical questions answered) or TCM, has been practised in China for thousands of years. Historically, it has played an important role in the prevention and treatment of diseases in China. With its complete theoretical system, firm clinical foundations and significant therapeutic effects, most of the major western nations have now realized the value of this ancient healing art. Recently there have been many examples of the integration of Chinese Medicine into the western medical establishment. The United Kingdom became the first western nation to include coverage for Chinese medical treatment in its National Health Service. Most major US hospitals now employ Chinese Medicine practitioners. In Canada, British Columbia became the first province to recognise the Chinese Medicine practitioners as health professionals, which gives them the same status as western medical doctors. A reformed BC provincial health care plan to cover Chinese Medicine is also on the drawing board. Similar initiatives have also been taken in Ontario and Quebec. From its ancient roots, modern Chinese Medicine has developed into several inseparable facets, which include acupuncture, herbal medicine, Tuina, dietary regulation, and therapeutic exercise, such as Qigong and Tai Chi. At Clinique SinoCare, we mainly use acupuncture, herbal medicine and Tuina to provide effective treatments for a wide range of health problems.
