Be Harmony - Clínicas

Welcome to TCM


The basic principle of Traditional Chinese Medicine is to bring the body into harmony with itself and in balance with the outer environment. It is a unique approach to health care, which examines every aspect of a person’s health and how the body’s systems interrelate, complement, stimulate and correct each other. In TCM the body is a complex and sophisticated interdependent system, which must function properly for mental, physical and spiritual health to be achieved and maintained. Imbalance and lack of integration of the different internal bodily systems and body-environment interfaces is the root sources of all health related problems in the TCM philosophy.

TCM differs in its approach to traditional Western medicine, which tends to see disease as coming from outside the organism such as germs, bacteria, viruses, etc. In TCM most diseases are seen as originating within the body through biological function degeneration and it puts the amelioration and curing of the problem within the power of the body’s innate capacity, i.e. its original and acquired constitution, a capacity which can be strengthened through TCM techniques. Therefore restoratives and natural remedies that improve balance and the interdependent functioning of the bodily systems are the emphasis. This gives TCM an essential role in general health care and an important enhancement to Western medical techniques, especially in areas of chronic, long-term illnesses
