[00:07.48]Traditional Chinese Medicine

[00:09.94]Traditional Chinese Medicine has been practiced

[00:12.23]in Asia for the last 2,500 years.

[00:15.73]It is safe and effective

[00:17.83]and has a holistic 1 approach,

[00:19.74]which means that it treats the body as a whole.

[00:23.13]In Western Medicine, treatment is focused

[00:25.18]only on the part of the body that is ill.

[00:27.53]For example, if a patient has a rash,

[00:30.14]Western Medicine prescribes a cream

[00:32.26]to make the rash go away.

[00:34.06]But the rash might come back as the cause

[00:36.67]of the rash has not been treated.

[00:38.67]Tradional Chinese Medicine finds

[00:40.68]the cause of the rash

[00:42.09]and treats that to clear up the rash for good.

[00:45.27]Another big difference between Traditional

[00:47.16]Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine

[00:49.23]is the nature of the treatments used.

[00:51.61]The treatments used by Traditional Chinese

[00:53.58]Medicine are completely natural whereas Western

[00:56.48]Medicine treats illness with chemical drugs

[00:59.07]created in laboratories.These new,

[01:01.76]man-made drugs can often be life-saving

[01:04.52]but they can also cause severe side-effects.

[01:06.32]



adj.从整体着眼的,全面的
  • There is a fundamental ambiguity in the use of word "whole" in recent holistic literature.在近代的整体主义著作中,“整体”这个词的用法极其含混。
  • In so far as historicism is technological,its approach is not piecemeal,but "holistic".仅就历史决定论是一种技术而论,它的方法不是渐进的,而是“整体主义的”。
