The central principle of health prevention in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is "Preventive Treatment of Disease" (Zhi Wei Bing), which emphasizes taking measures to maintain balance and harmony before illness manifests.

This perspective is fundamentally holistic, viewing the individual as a microcosm of the surrounding universe, constantly interacting with nature and the environment. Health is maintained by ensuring the smooth flow and balance of essential life forces.

Prevention is achieved through lifestyle management (Yang Sheng), which is personalized to an individual's unique body constitution and the changing seasons. Key practices include:

⚡️Dietary Therapy: Eating in moderation and selecting foods that balance one's constitution and align with the season.

☀️Movement: Practicing exercises like Tai Chi and Qigong to promote the circulation of Qi and Blood.

😊Emotional Balance: Moderating the "Seven Emotions" (joy, anger, grief, worry, fear, shock, and sadness) to prevent them from creating internal disharmony.

🌸Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine: Regular use of these treatments to strengthen the body's defensive Qi and correct minor imbalances before they escalate into serious disease.

Acupuncture, a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), involves stimulating specific points along the body's energy pathways to restore health and balance. These pathways are known as acupuncture meridians or acupuncture channels, and they form a complex network that carries vital substances and Qi throughout the body.
