Unlike Western medicine, in which diagnosis in treatment focuses on
the local changes in structure in isolation from the whole body,
Chinese medicine views the human organism as an integrated system
where a change that occurs in one part of the system affects the
dynamic balance in the whole as well as every other part. Furthermore,
Chinese medicine considers how a pathological change has been brought
about as opposed to focusing solely on the outcome. Every TCM therapy
session, whether it involves only acupuncture, herbal medicine, Tuina
massage, or any combination of these treatments, starts with
collecting information about existing unique physiological and
psychological states of a person in order to identify patterns of
disharmony. After the TCM diagnosis is made, a practitioner formulates
a plan of treatment. Choosing a proper prescription of herbs or
acupoints is a very important next step of the treatment, as the
effect of the combination of several single herbs or points is very
different from the sum of their individual effects. Herbal treatment
not based on individual pattern identification (as could be the case
with unqualified practitioners) or acupuncture treatment comprising
only points of the problem area are often ineffective; this is because
the underlying cause of the disorder has not been addressed.
