INTRODUCTION

Let the Chinese medical doctors help you to look after your health and happiness.Cancer, heart diseases and stroke are presently the first, second and third killers in Singapore respectively. Their causes have not been specifically determined. However, the traditional Chinese Medicine doctors have already strongly believed that “illness find its way in by the mouth”. Doctors of modern medicines feel that the development of cancer is a long process thus recommending early diagnosis and intervention. However patients will usually experience side effects after surgery or radiotherapy or chemotherapy whereas Chinese medicine, together with modern medicine, can assist in prevention, treatment and remedy. The results are significant in helping patients regain their health.

Despite the slow progression, heart diseases are not easily detected at an early stage. Upon diagnosis, the condition is usually critical, with high fatality rate and low survival rate in an onset.

On the other hand, the onset of a stroke usually takes one by surprise. Although survival rate is higher, the conditions after stroke can be severe and extensive; bringing about much sufferings and inconveniences to both the patients and their family members. Modern medicines have not been able to come up with any special efficacy for the above mentioned illnesses in prevention other than advising the high-risk groups to monitor their health conditions closely with regular health check ups. Cases of sudden death are being reported in the newspapers. It seems a worrying trend among the younger victims.

The Chinese medicine emphasis on “prevention is better than cure”. The fundamental and essential test on medicine; preserving one’s health;nourishing of life and healing:”Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Chinese Medicine”(“Neijing Suwen”) advocates that one should”treat a pre-illness and not an illness that has already developed”. This philosophy has been put in practice for a few thousands years. From experiences, we know that if we take good care of our health and treat the  pre-illness symptoms early (symptoms such as tightness and pain n the chest, racing heart beat, insomnia, fatigue due to unknown causes, irregular blood pressure high cholesterol, headache, dizziness, numbness in the limbs, constipation, pre-menstruation cramp, swollen or lumpy breast etc.) veteran Chinese medical doctors will be able to effectively help prevent or treat an illness or relieve pain by regulating blood and “chi”( energy) circulation via acupuncture, and herbal medicines. The doctors also recommend appropriate promote medicinal cuisine and functional exercises to help patients recuperate and regain their health.Act now to take charge of out health.

现有中医师帮助您调理身体健康!了解中医!了解您自己!目前, 癌症疾病,心脏疾病和中风疾病是新加坡第一,第二和第三号杀手.它们的起因都还没有明确确定, 但是中医早就明确认为: “ 病从口入” 的理论. 现代医学认为 “癌症”疾病的生成过程是较长的,主张早期诊断早期治疗, 但是手术, 电疗和化疗后存在有很大副作用.中医药最擅长的调理养身正好补其不足,可有显著的效果.帮助疾病早日康复. 

“心脏” 疾病形成的也教慢, 但是早期不太容易被发现, 一旦被诊断出来, 病情则较严重.如果发病死亡率较高, 抢救存活率较低. 

“中风” 疾病发病非常突然, 抢救后存活率较大, 但是后遗症也非常大, 非常多, 给病人及病人家属带来很多很大的痛苦和麻烦.以上疾病现代医学还没有特效药预防, 主张高危险族群要密切观察自身情况, 经常定期检查身体.(但是有时还是防不胜防,如新闻报道的一些爆毕的例子,其中有年轻化的趋势).

中医主张 “预防胜过治疗”, <<内经>>曰:治未病不治已病”亦有几前年的历史.经验告诉我们只要积极保护调理身体, 早期治疗病前症状, 如: 胸闷, 胸痛, 高血压, 糖尿病, 高胆固醇, 头疼, 头晕, 手足麻痹, 心跳加快, 矢眠, 不明原因的疲劳,便秘,妇女痛经,乳房脹通,乳房硬块…等等.有经验的中医师可通过针灸,和中药等方法来疏理经络, 来有效帮助起到预防治疗疾病, 减轻痛苦, 解除莫些症状的作用. 并且我们医师还帮助病人利用饮食药膳, 功能锻炼, 促进身体康复!:-)
