Will TCM be eliminated like martial arts?

Will TCM be eliminated like martial arts?

The old-fashioned, stuck-in-the-mud/ancestral Chinese medicine practitioners are likely to be obsolete in a few years' time.

The reason there are fewer people practicing martial arts now is because of the availability of weapons, and while martial arts are now practiced mostly for fitness, self-defense and performance, martial arts are out of the war arena.

Nowadays, the fitness of martial arts and Chinese medicine serve the same purpose. People need treatment, fitness and health care, and Chinese medicine has the irreplaceable specialties of Western medicine, so Chinese medicine cannot be eliminated.

Chinese medicine is doomed to be eliminated, Chinese medicine is too difficult, Western medicine 5 years out of a nurse in college, 8 years out of a doctor in college and graduate school, 11 years out of a doctor, 15 years out of an expert. Chinese medicine, 5 years out of an apprentice, 10 years out of a junior doctor, 20 years out of the gifted and talented may be out of a proficient old Chinese medicine, 50 years in order to come out of an expert, this time people are old, there is no time. Can Chinese medicine not be eliminated in this way? Give me a reason not to eliminate.

Actually, this question is the same as asking if religion will be eliminated. It's basically the same.

Traditional Chinese medicine is traditional medicine, traditional medicine in ancient times itself is witch doctors do not distinguish, Chinese medicine yin and yang five elements theory, is the typical evidence of these religious traces.

Also, religions tend to be all about myths and legends, and miracles are closely related. You'll find the same is true of martial arts or Chinese medicine. Even TV shows where gods and goddesses fight battles, also with martial arts. Chinese medicine to publicize the efficacy of healing is also, listen to whoever that who in a certain place a certain famous doctor, cured a certain incurable disease. Even the myths of many ancient doctors, magpies, Hua Tuo, etc. are myths, the fact is that the ancient per capita life expectancy is very short, life is seventy years old, modern people 70 years old is not considered a high life expectancy.

Once again, in the 1920s and 1930s, before the Second World War, there was a major discussion at the national level, and the basic conclusion at that time was the abolition of medical testing, and the relevant resolution was even discussed and passed by the National Assembly at that time, only that due to the commencement of the war of aggression by Japan against China, the matter was delayed until now.

In neighboring Japan, after the Meiji Restoration, the qualifying examination for medical practitioners only examined Western medicine, which was equivalent to the abolition of Chinese medicine, and it has developed to the extent that there are reports that the Chinese medicines in Japan, surprisingly, have a higher share than our Chinese medicines in the world.

It is an inevitable trend for TCM to modernize. As for how to modernize, Mr. Tu Youyou's Nobel Prize has pointed out a clear way: to study the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine, to purify them, and to carry out comprehensive research on the active ingredients and their derivatives. This is exactly taking the essence and removing the dross. And this kind of research on active ingredients, or who says various compounds, is precisely the characteristic of modern science, that is, modern medicine.

No, even if all Chinese people change into Europeans and Americans in the future. When mankind develops to the point that every part is like a machine that can be replaced at will to achieve immortality, Chinese medicine will naturally be used by no one, but that will also have to be the case if there are no workers and peasants who can't afford to replace the spare parts.

First of all, to declare that the martial arts have not been eliminated, but now the martial arts into the trough period, the country has not yet taken into account this piece, slowly I think the martial arts will be valued by the state, so that from the new play the splendor of the martial arts, after all, the martial arts is one of the country's important culture, the introduction of the martial arts into the campus is a very good example of Chinese medicine is not only will not be eliminated but also will be the more and more the development of better and better.

First of all there is a difference between Chinese medicine and martial arts. Martial arts may not have much to do with whether people practice them or not. But Chinese medicine is to cure the disease, you have a disease you have to see. Then if you see a doctor, you will choose to go to see a Chinese doctor or a Western doctor. And there are a lot of Western medicine can not see the disease, but the Chinese medicine can be good, there are countless examples. In particular, Chinese medicine has a lot of miraculous medical methods, such as acupuncture, which is not available in Western medicine.

Another thing is that people nowadays, especially Chinese people nowadays, are more and more convinced that the therapies of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are scientific. This is because Western medicine treats the symptoms but not the root cause, whereas Chinese medicine can get rid of the root cause. And Western medicine has antibiotics while Chinese medicine does not. Nowadays, many children are sick and doctors mind to take pCms instead of western medicines. Moreover, Chinese medicine has penetrated into every aspect of people's lives, such as taking this supplement and that, all of which are the claims of Chinese medicine, and this is the charm of Chinese medicine. So it is impossible for Chinese medicine to be eliminated, and of course, martial arts is also impossible to be eliminated.

Hello, I am a martial arts enthusiasts, passing friends please pay attention to, your support is my greatest power, this article has any deficiencies please leave a lot of guidance, thank you very much!

Chinese medicine, martial arts certainly will not die out, people with this kind of thinking really worry about nothing.

Chinese medicine, take their own personal experience of the example. My mother more than 60, my grandfather died, my mother suddenly an ear can not hear, went to the city's second hospital, did not check out what is wrong, and then went to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital, acupuncture + hanging water for a week, said that the effect, and then do not hang water, acupuncture for a week completely good, is the head of the blood vessels do not pass.

Another relative had sciatica, also acupuncture, and after much research on the internet, it said to sleep on a board bed and lie flat to relax the spine and back. Acupuncture and Tui Na are effective, don't be sedentary or sit in an incorrect position.

Western medicine, has the advantages of Western medicine. But Chinese medicine also has the advantages of Chinese medicine. In the relaxation of the human body and mind, unclogging blood vessels, nerves, Chinese medicine has the advantage, where it does not work, blood vessels clogged, Chinese medicine believes that all diseases start from the meridian blockage. However, Chinese medicine is not like Western medicine, which has scientific and rigorous knowledge to support the elaboration of pathology. Western medicine, medicine can rely on chemistry, math, physics, and experiments, etc., there are tight arguments, data, logic. Unlike Chinese medicine, which is mostly based on long-term experience and experimentation, there is a lack of scientific language to explain the principles.

1, for example, why does acupuncture provide pain relief?

Chinese medicine is saying that it has this function, and if you ask him to say it, it's hard for him to put it into scientific terms. Because acupuncture stimulates the acupuncture points, he will have hormones or hormones to calm the surrounding nerves.

2, Why do people get on fire?

Chinese medicine says there is an imbalance of yin and yang, positive and negative charge counts, and enzyme imbalances.

Chinese medicine is not unscientific, but has not yet found a scientific language to explain him, such as meridians, different from blood vessels, what is going on, the only way to use Western medicine, or scientific language to explain and describe it is more convincing.

Philosophically, the West is logical and the East is a priori. Not only philosophy, but Chinese medicine, Western medicine, martial arts, etc. as well.

The development of Wushu in terms of inheritance is far inferior to Chinese medicine, because of a number of reasons, green and yellow, and conservative, Wushu not only did not develop, but also retrogression. Wushu this big tree a lot have not been preserved, was taken away, we only occasionally pick up a leaf or two. Wushu also lacks the soil for growth, but to say that it is dying out is to worry about nothing.

Answer, will not be eliminated by history like martial arts, martial arts has not been eliminated, only less people practicing, Chinese medicine in this year's new crown epidemic, played a huge role, some diseases want to go to the root or have to be treated with Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine, the combination of Western and traditional Chinese medicine is the future of the generous phase, Chinese medicine is unlikely to be eliminated, the answer is finished.

First of all, to clarify one of the author's views, Chinese medicine, will not be eliminated by history.

I am not a medical student, I am not subjective, just objective, from a cultural and historical point of view, to analyze the issue.

It is true that, as the title suggests, theClassical martial arts culture, now see, has basically tended to the level of museum treasures, a while ago Lei Lei's farce, just like a traditional martial arts of the last "life" straw.



Although Papa Ma, out of love, or for other reasons, made a "taiji ring" to try to save Chuanwu. Obviously, the effect is not ideal, at least, not to save the day.

So why has traditional martial arts culture suffered such an embarrassing and bleak situation?In a word, a flower without soil, no matter how bright it is, will not be red for a hundred days. As we all know, in which era of modern Chinese history was there a great outbreak of martial arts?



The Republic of China, of course. Why? It's very simple, at that time, martial arts training, for the sake of real fighting and killing ah! Sun Lutang, he was a bodyguard for Xu Shichang, and he was a military instructor! What's the biggest incident in the Republic of China? Assassinations! Not much to say, list a few, Song Jiaoren, Chen Qimei, Liao Zhongkai, Wang Jingwei, we have basically heard of it, that can be assassinated and died.

Therefore, at that time, if people did not practice martial arts, do not go out on the street at all, whether it is a dignitary, or common people, and even to be married in the girl, have to learn a few strokes of self-defense, not to mention the soldiers, generals, which is not a martial art in the body?

So, why will Chinese medicine not die out? Because.He has a deep mass soil, undeniably, Chinese medicine in the world's medical history, there has been some controversy, the main reason, or Chinese medicine's way of diagnosis, too empirical, without the precise pharmacological analysis of Western medicine.


But.Chinese thousands of years of medical theory, can not be on paper, modern medicine has many difficult cases, are relying on traditional Chinese medicine, to be cured, so, at home and abroad to seek treatment for many people. Moreover, thousands of years, passed down the culture of Chinese medicine, not to say that the demise of the demise, I believe that it will be with the improvement of modern medical technology, and constantly updated, development.

As long as there is a demand and continuous self-renewal and development, there will inevitably be the existence of the Chinese medicine profession.

Welcome to leave a message to discuss, like my article, please follow, the literati grass.

Chinese medicine will go global! Many difficult cases or Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine theory is profound and profound, not headache, treat the feet of the Western medicine can be compared. Of course, Chinese medicine and Western medicine have their own strengths and weaknesses.
