Features: Naturopathy primarily utilizes natural medicines, natural substances, and natural methods to treat diseases and promote health. Essentially, naturopathy is similar to China's traditional medical system and can be seen as a new understanding and summary of traditional medicine worldwide, with Traditional Chinese Medicine as its main content. Naturopathy is based on an holistic and dialectical view of nature, human society, and human physiology, pathology, and health. It advocates that humans are part of nature and society, and that health is a combination of physical and mental well-being, which aligns with the World Health Organization's 1990 revised definition of health. In terms of healthcare models, naturopathy emphasizes harmony between humans and nature, unity of heaven and humanity, returning to simplicity, and reconnecting with nature. It stresses the harmonious integration of humans with nature and society, echoing the "biological-psycho-social" model advocated by modern medicine. Naturopathy is gaining increasing attention, with many regions in China establishing Naturopathy Associations and publishing related books and journals. Advocating for naturopathy is the duty of every medical professional. Traditional Chinese Medicine, the traditional medicine of our motherland, is one of the most complete forms of naturopathy in the world. To promote the advantages of Traditional Chinese Medicine and absorb the reasonable essence of naturopathy from around the world, we have organized experts to compile this book, hoping it can contribute to the health and recovery of patients.
