[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.
