There is a middle-aged businessman named Mr. Li, who suffers from severe frozen shoulder due to long-term work pressure and lack of exercise, and often feels shoulder pain and stiffness, which even affects daily life and work in severe cases. He tried Western medicine, including painkillers and physics, but it didn't work well.
Later, Mr. Li heard about the unique advantages of Chinese medicine in chronic diseases** and decided to give it a try. He found an experienced TCM physician who made a comprehensive diagnosis by asking for a medical history, observing the tongue, and taking the pulse. The doctor believed that Mr. Li's frozen shoulder was caused by stagnation of liver qi and poor circulation of qi and blood.
The physician designed a comprehensive program for him, including acupuncture to relieve local pain, massage to relax muscles and promote blood circulation, and traditional Chinese medicine to regulate qi and blood in the body. In addition, the doctor also taught Mr. Li a set of simple Tai Chi movements for him to practice every day to strengthen his physique and promote the circulation of qi and blood.
After a few months**, Mr. Li's frozen shoulder symptoms have improved significantly. His shoulders are no longer as stiff and painful, and his quality of life has improved significantly. He is very satisfied with the results of TCM and has developed the habit of practicing Tai Chi regularly, which not only helps him maintain his health, but also makes him more energetic at work.
This story illustrates the individualized principle of traditional Chinese medicine, that is, according to the specific situation and constitution of the patient, a combination of various means is used to fundamentally solve health problems and promote the overall health of body and mind.
