Medical treatment is no longer limited to modern medicine alone, as there are various alternative medical practices available. One of these is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), a healing science that has been recognized and practiced for over 5,000 years.
The Traditional Chinese Medicine Center at Piyavate Hospital was established to provide more treatment options for patients. This form of medicine is natural, safe, free from chemicals, and does not have side effects associated with medications. It focuses on balancing the body’s energy flow and stimulating blood circulation through different methods such as acupuncture, cupping therapy, Tuina massage (Chinese therapeutic massage), and Gua Sha. These treatments can be used in conjunction with modern medicine, under the care of expert Chinese medicine practitioners who are licensed by the Ministry of Public Health.
