TCM Canada
Traditional Chinese Medicine Canada originated in ancient China and had evolved over thousands of years ago.
TCM practitioners use herbal medicines and various mind and body practices, such as acupuncture and tai chi, to treat or prevent health problems.
Traditionally, Chinese Herbal Medicine involves the use of natural plants, minerals and even some small amount of animal products; however, TCM practitioners do not use metals, animal products or endangered species.
In North American countries, people use TCM primarily as a complementary health approach.
