Common Questions About T.C.M.

What does Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) consist of?

TCM over the last 3000 years has developed a unique understanding of the workings of the human body. An independent system for TCM animal and pet care has developed at the same time. There are documented TCM practices as far back as 800 years ago using nutrition and other TCM methods of treatment for animals. Today in China there are hospitals devoted to the treatment of animals primarily by TCM combined with some Western Veterinarian practices. Extensive research continues in the area as well.

Herbal Supplementation and Diet

Supplementation with Chinese herbs is often necessary either alone or to enhance all the other therapies mentioned here.The herbal products prescribed are regulated and approved by the Chinese Government. Practical diet suggestions may be given as well. An animal's metabolism is different from a human's. Herbal remedies formulated for human's may not be suitable for animals and some may be harmful.

See acupuncture for more information.
