Traditional Chinese medicine is based on very ancient healing methods, which allow you totreat diseases without harming the body. In the human body, according to Chinese thought, in addition to the respiratory, digestive, hormonal, nervous and blood circulatory systems, there is also that of energy circulation. Our vital energy moves in particular channels, calledmeridians, spread like a net throughout the body. On these meridians, linked to our internal organs, there are acupuncture points; according to Chinese medicine, an energy block in these channels causes disease. After having studied an appropriate treatment for each patient,it is possible to unblock the flow of energy, stimulating points on the meridians with acupressure, using needles or heat sticks. The stimuli thus received through the nervous system reach the muscles and subsequently the organs. Furthermore, as we will see later, it is also possible to carry out adequate treatments with dietetics and the use of Chinese herbs.
