Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been passed down for more than 2,000 years in China. TCM includes acupuncture (针灸), medicine, exercise such as Tai chi and Qigong, and other treatments. Today, TCM is not only used in Asia, but also more and more popular in the US.
In New York City's Chinatown, a lot of patients visit Wu Yiqiao, a TCM master from Zhejiang. Some of them are Chinese, and some are Americans. Wu has been practising TCM in the US for 28 years. Before that, he practiced it in China for 15 years. He has a deep understanding of TCM. “TCM, acupuncture and other TCM treatments are of great help to patients,” Wu said. “They can help reduce the pain without surgery.”
TCM is so useful that some Americans have also chosen to work on it. Frank Griffo has been an acupuncturist(针灸师) in California for about 18 years. In 2005, he graduated from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco. He then spent seven years studying the best acupuncture methods.
“ There are more than 60, 000 acupuncturists in the US right now. Chinese medicine has grown dramatically in recent years,” Griffo said. Before the 1970s, most people in the US didn't know acupuncture. But now TCM is playing a bigger role in their life as a safe and non-invasive(无创的) treatment for a lot of problems that Western medicine has difficulty providing good results or treatment choices for. “Acupuncture has been greatly accepted in this country,” Griffo added.
