Traditional
Chinese Medicine
Traditional
Chinese Medicine is the oldest, most comprehensive, safest and most effective
medical system of human health cares in the world. It has sustained the health of the world’s longest ongoing
civilization for over five thousand years.
Its premises may be conceived as inductive rather than based in cause and
effect. Practitioners have recorded
in medieval archives that span for more than three thousand years of written history
their results of meticulous clinical research that support such claims.
This medicine is deeply rooted in the primordial principles of the “ Tao”
a harmonious balance of Yin and Yang.
While
modern medicine might view disease as a malevolent external invasion by an enemy
that must be destroyed, Traditional Chinese Medicine would tend to see it as a
state of depletion or vacuity establishing vulnerability and allowing malevolent
agents to enter the body and cause disease.
Treatment protocol in TCM would be directed toward what is referred to
as the “root” of a disease rather than aggressively attacking superficial manifestations
or symptoms. Since Chinese medicine is a whole person medicine the root
of the disease might be found in the physical plane (viscera, trauma, or genetic,
etc), or most frequently on the inspirational or spiritual plane (the seven passions-anger,
joy, preoccupation, grief, fear, fright, rage).
There
are more than 2000 items listed in Chinese herbal pharmacopoeias, but only about
350 are used in general practice, of which less than one hundred are regarded
as indispensable in formulating the most popular prescriptions.
When applying these herbs in treatment protocol the primary focus is to
support the rehabilitation of natural functions of the body and its mechanisms.
This can be accomplished by the application of strategies such as; Tonify-Transform-Regulate-Drain-Release-Clear-Expel-Calm
and Relieve. This differs from modern
medicine that tend to; Replace-Augment-Supplement and Remove.
In
the case of menopausal syndrome, modern medicine approach is to augment or supplement
sex hormones, (estrogen and progesterone) in order to stabilize the blood levels
of these messengers. In TCM the approach
is to tonify all glands and physiological mechanizes responsible for the production
of these hormones so that whatever levels of hormones production exist, blood
levels will not fluctuate, thereby allowing the patient to experience a gradual
withdrawal without dominating symptoms.
Please
take note!
Unlike
many other producers of herbal remedies, Herbal
Oasis Industries chooses to use only the
finest herbs in our products, ensuring optimum results and satisfied clients.
Other companies often look to curtail production costs by using parts of the herbs
that are fruitless and ineffective (and cheaper!), resulting in a product that
is composed primarily of "filler". Our company refuses to employ
any part of the herb except for those that are the most potent and effectual.
Although this principle results in a significantly greater cost to us to produce
our solutions, we believe that ultimately the quality of our product will result
in us developing long-lasting and trusting relationships with our customers.
We believe that this dedication to a quality product that sets us apart from all
competitors.
