Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has its roots in ancient China. Back then there was no concept of hormones and neurotransmitters, cells and enzymes etc, so they used the concepts that were well understood in those times. They looked to their environment and saw the way that the seasons, the wind, the rain and the heat had on people and their health. The terms they used to describe illness were wind, cold, damp, heat, dryness, and summer-heat. Chinese medicine continued to evolve over the centuries to find ways to treat the latest "epidemic" diseases, as well as continuing to treat mild and common diseases and chronic illness. But the language used to describe the body in health and in illness has stayed the same throughout.

Modern treatments include acupuncture, cupping, food therapy, gua sha, herbal medicine and moxibustion. Qi Gong and Tai Chi are also considered as treatment modalities within the scope of Chinese Medicine.
