Features: "Dongbing Xiaozhi" (Winter Diseases Treated in Summer) is a unique natural therapy in traditional Chinese medicine. This long-standing therapy originates from the medical theory of "Unity of Heaven and Man" and the treatment principle of "Nourishing Yang in Summer." It involves preventive treatment and conditioning during the summer months to prevent or alleviate the recurrence of certain diseases that frequently occur in winter or only appear during winter. Currently, it is primarily used in clinical practice to treat over 20 conditions such as bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and others. Due to its methods often involving acupuncture, topical applications, dietary therapy, and other simple yet effective approaches, this therapy has gained widespread popularity among the general public and is highly favored by many middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic diseases. To meet the needs of the public for disease prevention, treatment, and health maintenance, this book has been compiled based on clinical practice and relevant materials.
