Western medicine only has been introduced in China no more than 200 years ago. According to my late uncle when he was young there were not even paracetamol in his village. TCM looked after everyone from cradle to grave.
TCM can help a lot of illnesses, these loosely can be grouped as follows :-
Tonic and beauty is very popular with the ladies e.g. to help the smoothness of the skin, reducing wrinkles, skin whitening, the shininess of hair etc.
Slimming is a very successful part of TCM because it helps the body to loose weight at the same time brings health into the person.

It can help the digestive system e.g. ulcer, I.B.S., constipation, diarrhoea etc.
