Traditional Chinese Medicine

What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?


Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is one of the world’s oldest healing systems, developed more than 2,500 years ago in China. It is based on the idea that health depends on the balance of energy, or Qi (pronounced “chee”), flowing through the body’s meridians. When Qi is blocked or imbalanced, illness arises. TCM uses natural methods to restore harmony and stimulate the body’s innate healing abilities.
 

The Principles of TCM
 

Unlike conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms in isolation, TCM views the body as an interconnected whole. Its philosophy is guided by concepts such as:


Yin and Yang: the dynamic balance of opposite forces.
 

Five Elements Theory: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, each representing organ systems and functions.
 

Meridians and Qi Flow: channels of life energy that link organs, emotions, and physical health.
 

Core Methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine
 

At Lemus Natural Medicine, TCM is applied through multiple therapeutic practices, including:
 

Acupuncture: inserting fine, sterile needles at precise points to
rebalance Qi and activate healing.

 

Herbal Medicine: customized formulas made from roots, leaves,
and minerals to strengthen organs and correct imbalances.

 

Moxibustion & amp; Cupping: traditional techniques to improve
circulation and remove blockages.

 

Dietary Therapy: aligning nutrition with body constitution,
seasons, and organ health.

 

How Dr. Lemus Integrates TCM with Bioterrain Science?
 

Dr. J. Michael Lemus, licensed Acupuncture Physician, blends the wisdom of TCM with advanced modern science. Through his exclusive Multidisciplinary Bioterrain Testing System, more than 270 biochemical markers are analyzed to uncover deficiencies, toxicities, and imbalances in the body.

 

This means that acupuncture, herbs, and other TCM methods are not applied generically. Instead, they are chosen with precision—guided by laboratory results, bioterrain evaluation, and your individual health profile.
