Like any system, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a logical means of describing what it treats-namely, the human body and its disorders. And while the TCM outlook differs from the modern scientific view, they are not mutually exclusive. Rather, they are two different methods of evaluating the same thing, just as the metric system and English system measure distance, volume, and mass differently. However, unlike Western medicine, which uses anatomy, physiology, chemistry, physics, and other sciences to objectively explain bodily processes and disease.
