Actually the best effect of traditional Chinese medicine is that it complements the weaknesses of orthodox medical treatments. One good example of this is the Chinese use of tonic medicines to strengthen and supplement parts of the body that have become weak or are not functioning at full capacity. In this way, traditional Chinese medicine successfully treats many chronic and degenerative conditions, boosting the immune system and restoring normal function. Prof. Wang, you have been staying in Australia for almost a year, how do you think of the development of traditional Chinese medicine here? I see a big progress. In the last three decades there has been a steady growth of traditional Chinese medicine in Australia. Several major universities now offer degree course in this area. Chinese herbal medicine have been subject to clinical trials for some treatment conditions. |
