Traditional Chinese medicine (including acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine) treats diseases in its own way. It emphasizes restoring the balance of the whole body through adjusting yin and yang and harmonizing qi and blood.  

Chinese medicine understands a disease mainly by a group of relevant symptoms and signs. It correlates a disease (or a chief complaint) to different patterns of zheng (证, syndrome). It treats a disease by treating its zheng.
