[00:01.70]Despite Traditional Chinese Medicine's
[00:03.57]long history and proven success,
[00:05.73]for years,the western world failed
[00:07.92]to recognize its benefits.
[00:09.92]In fact,up until the 1980s,
[00:12.16]many Westerners never condidered
[00:14.21]seeing a Traditional Chinese Medical doctor
[00:16.21]when they were sick,
[00:17.59]and saw treatments like acupuncture 1 as madness!
[00:21.18]It seems a real pity that thousands of people
[00:23.90]who could have benefited
[00:25.25]from Traditional Chinese Medicine missed out
[00:27.55]because of ignorance 2.
[00:29.21]Luckily,over the last two decades,
[00:31.67]scientific studies and education
[00:33.62]have brought Traditional Chinese Medicine
[00:35.49]to the Western world and patients,
[00:37.78]and even Western doctors,are taking note.
[00:40.95]Today,it is not unusual to hear Westerners
[00:43.25]talking about their latest acupuncture
[00:45.24]sessionor encouraging their friends
[00:47.83]to see a Chinese herbalist.
[00:49.83]Acupressure,a form of traditional Chinese
[00:52.40]massage,is also increasingly 3 popular.
[00:56.19]As studies continue to prove Traditional
[00:58.23]Chinese Medicine's worth,
[00:59.96]especially in treating patients
[01:01.64]withcancer and AIDS,
[01:03.41]it becomes more and more obvious
[01:05.05]that Western medicine
[01:06.57]and Traditional Chinese Medicine
[01:08.28]complement each other.
[01:10.43]Traditional Chinese Medicine
[01:11.55]is finally getting the chance it deserves 4
[01:14.28]to help create a healthier world.
