Features: The non-pharmacological therapies in this book integrate ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign non-pharmacological methods, with a focus on elaborating on traditional, widely used, and-based effective therapies in China. The non-pharmacological therapies included in this book are primarily characterized by simplicity, convenience, affordability, and effectiveness, adhering to the principles of being for the general public and practical. Some therapies may be categorized under two or more types. Certain therapies involve the use of some medicinal treatments, but the emphasis remains on non-pharmacological methods as the primary approach, with medication serving as a supplementary role. The majority of the therapies in the book can be self-applied, but a few are limited or influenced by factors such as time, environment, location, physical condition, operational tools, and technical skills. Therefore, they must be performed under the guidance of experts or doctors.
