Natural medicine refers to a broad range of healing practices that are based on natural methods and substances. It encompasses various therapies and treatments that aim to promote health, prevent illness, and facilitate the body’s natural healing processes.
As integrative parts of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), acupuncture and medical massage (Tui Na) are two natural medicine that have long been deemed effective in treating patients with muscle and soft tissue related pains. Given the ongoing opioid crisis in the United States, more and more health plans are covering these services. For instance, Medicare started covering acupuncture for low back pain in 2020 after extensive review of its treatment effect.
Acupuncture has been used to address a wide range of health conditions and is often sought for pain management, such as chronic pain, headaches, and musculoskeletal disorders. It is also used for various other health concerns, including stress reduction, digestive disorders, fertility support, respiratory issues, and emotional well-being.
Medical massage is effective in managing muscle pain, and it is different from SPA massage in targeting specific muscle issues. Medical massage (Tui Na) has been used for illness management and maintaining well-being for a long time.
