Introduction: The Process, Purpose, and Principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic medical system that originated in China. TCM practitioners believe that health is the result of a balance between two opposing but complementary forces, yin and yang, which are both necessary for life.
There are many principles in Traditional Chinese Medicine that are used to maintain health and treat illness. These include the use of acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary therapy. Acupuncture can be used during pregnancy to help with pain relief, nausea, morning sickness and other symptoms. In prenatal care, TCM can be used to help with sleep disturbances or fatigue during pregnancy as well as mental health issues such as depression or anxiety disorders.
