Chinese Medicine places a strong emphasis on the value of preventive care, i.e. maintaining health rather than reacting to disease.
A famous quote from the ancient Chinese medical text Su Wen says: “When medicinal therapy is initiated only after someone has fallen ill… it is as though someone has waited to dig a well until he is already weak from thirst.”
In ancient China, the imperial physician was not just a doctor, but a Guardian of Balance, tasked with preserving the emperor’s health long before illness ever appeared. A well-known legend tells that if an emperor became ill, his physicians were punished and lost their credibility.
Today, we mostly treat physical conditions resulting from imbalances that began developing years earlier. Acupuncture empowers you to observe your body’s signals and take charge of your health. By recognizing imbalances based on subtle signs and addressing them early, classical acupuncture medicine aims to prevent illness before it manifests physically.
In modern terms, preventive acupuncture course would boost the immunity to fight off a cold, support adaptation to the environment (physical and emotional), fortify all sensory organs, mental focus and productivity, and heightens creativity and vision.
