BEIJING Air Force 1 Flyknit Laag Dames Sale , July 1 (Xinhua) -- Though her work schedule is always busy, You Hongwen, a cellist from Taiwan, makes time for her studies. She is currently completing a three-year course at Hope Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) School in Beijing.


"TCM is more than just therapy, it is a way to learn more about yourself," said You.

Classes begin at 9:00 a.m. with Kungfu Air Force 1 Flyknit Laag Heren Sale , a Chinese martial art, then the students study ancient medical literature and practise acupuncture techniques, which involve inserting thin needles into a patient's body at exact points that can relieve pain and ease the symptoms of many ailments.


"The school employs over 20 teachers with medical licenses and ten doctors work at its clinic," said Xu Wenbin, founder of the Hope TCM School.


Founded in 1999, the school offered the three-year course for the first time in 2009. Enrollment is capped at 96 students to ensure a high standard of teaching.

In addition, Xu previously hosted a radio show interpreting the Huangdi Neijing, or Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor, the fundamental doctrinal text for Chinese medicine for more than two millennia.

TCM is seen by many as a Chinese national treasure due to its unique theories and practices, such as herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage and nutritional components.


China hopes to revive this ancient knowledge and a revised law on TCM came into force Saturday.


The legislation will help to protect TCM and tackle the shortage of health resources in China, said Chen Luojia, head of China Association of Research and Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine.


Fuelled by continued innovation Nike Air Force 1 Laag Heren Sale , TCM has gained growing momentum in China. By the end of 2016, 45 TCM research projects had won national scientific and technological awards.


The new law puts TCM and Western medicine on equal footing in China,with each learning from and complementing the other. In 2016, over 3.42 billion U.S. dollars in TCM products were exported to 183 countries or regions.
