The system of herbal medicine that developed in China differs in several significant ways from European herbal medicine. The most obvious difference is that Western herbal medicine focuses on simples, or herbs taken by themselves. In contrast, traditional Chinese herbal medicine (TCHM) makes almost exclusive use of herbal combinations. Also, TCHM formulas are not designed to treat symptoms of a specific illness, but are tailored specifically to the individual according to the complex principles of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). For this reason, TCHM is potentially a deeply holistic healing approach. However, it is both more difficult to use and harder to study than its Western counterpart.
