Our Core Values

TCM Homecare was established in 2008 by Physician Thum, a veteran with over two decades of experience in the mobile software industry and senior management roles. His overseas assignments in the US, UK, Malaysia and Indonesia provided extensive multicultural and international exposure. Through business development, management roles, and involvement in a Malaysia Mesdaq listing exercise, he honed his business acumen. 

His technical proficiency was further proven by his technical development work, IoT expertise, R&D initiatives and patent filings. Additionally, his 10 years practicing Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and developing a TCM Clinic Management System allowed him to gain comprehensive understanding of the medical industry.

Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic system of medicine that has been practiced for thousands of years in China and other parts of Asia. It includes various forms of therapies such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, moxibustion, and tai chi. TCM is based on the concept of the body’s vital energy, known as qi, flowing through meridians or pathways in the body. The goal of TCM is to restore balance and harmony within the body to promote health and well-being.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers a holistic approach to health and wellness, focusing on balancing the body’s energy flow (Qi) to promote healing and prevent illness.

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Qi (pronounced “chee”) is a fundamental concept that refers to the vital energy or life force that flows through the body. Qi is believed to be essential for maintaining health and vitality. According to TCM theory, Qi flows through the body along meridians or channels, and when the flow of Qi is disrupted or blocked, it can lead to illness or disease. Practitioners of TCM use various techniques such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and qigong to help balance and harmonize the flow of Qi in the body.

Traditional Chinese medicine theory states that acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body to restore the flow of qi (vital energy) along the meridians or energy channels. This stimulation is typically done using thin needles inserted into the skin at these points.

From a modern scientific perspective, acupuncture is believed to work by stimulating nerves, muscles, and connective tissues, which can help boost the body’s natural painkillers (endorphins), reduce inflammation, and improve circulation. Acupuncture may also have an effect on the central nervous system, influencing how the body perceives and responds to pain.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Western Medicine are distinct in several ways, including their underlying philosophies, diagnostic methods, treatment approaches, and understanding of health and disease.

  1. Philosophy: TCM is based on the concept of balance and harmony within the body, mind, and spirit, as well as the relationship between the individual and their environment. It sees the body as an interconnected system influenced by the flow of vital energy (Qi) along meridians. Western Medicine, on the other hand, focuses on the physical and biochemical aspects of the body, often treating symptoms rather than addressing underlying imbalances.

  2. Diagnostic Methods: TCM diagnosis involves a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s symptoms, medical history, pulse, tongue, and overall appearance to identify patterns of imbalance. Western Medicine relies more on laboratory tests, imaging studies, and physical examinations to diagnose specific diseases and conditions.

  3. Treatment Approaches: TCM treatments often involve a combination of herbal medicine, acupuncture, dietary therapy, and lifestyle modifications to restore balance and promote the body’s natural healing abilities. Western Medicine typically uses pharmaceutical drugs, surgery, and other interventions to target specific symptoms or underlying causes of disease.

  4. Understanding of Health and Disease: TCM views health as a state of balance and harmony, with disease resulting from imbalances or blockages in the flow of Qi. It emphasizes prevention and holistic approaches to maintaining health. Western Medicine focuses on diagnosing and treating specific diseases or conditions using evidence-based practices and interventions.

Overall, while TCM and Western Medicine have different approaches and perspectives, they can complement each other in providing comprehensive healthcare options for patients. It is not uncommon for individuals to use a combination of both TCM and Western Medicine to address their health needs.

During your appointment, our physicians will engage in thorough discussion about your health condition, followed by recommending best treatment options. You are welcome to participate in the discussion, upon your consent, a personalized treatment plan will be formulated. Should you have any concerns or require further clarification, feel free to reach out or book another appointment.

Traditional Chinese medicine treatments are generally considered safe when administered by a qualified and experienced practitioner. However, as with any form of medical treatment, there may be potential risks and side effects associated with certain modalities or herbal remedies. It is important to consult with a licensed traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who can assess your individual health needs and provide appropriate treatment recommendations.

It is also important to disclose any existing medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are taking to your practitioner to ensure that the treatment is safe and suitable for you. Additionally, it is advisable to follow the practitioner’s recommendations and guidelines for treatment to minimize any potential risks.

Overall, traditional Chinese medicine treatments can be safe and effective when used correctly and under the guidance of a qualified practitioner.

The number of treatment sessions needed in traditional Chinese medicine can vary depending on the individual’s condition, response to treatment, and overall health goals. In general, acute conditions may require fewer sessions, while chronic conditions may require more frequent and consistent treatment over a longer period of time.

It is best to consult with a licensed traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who can assess your specific situation and provide a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs. They will be able to give you a better idea of the recommended number of treatment sessions based on your condition and how your body responds to the treatment.

It is recommended to follow a treatment schedule that is tailored to your individual needs and health condition. In traditional Chinese medicine, the frequency of treatments can vary depending on various factors such as the severity of the condition, your overall health status, and how well you respond to the treatment.

In general, for acute conditions, more frequent treatments may be necessary initially, such as 1-2 times per week. For chronic conditions, a maintenance schedule of 1-2 times per month may be sufficient to help manage symptoms and promote overall well-being.

It is best to consult with your traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to determine the most appropriate treatment frequency for your specific situation. They will be able to assess your progress and adjust the treatment schedule accordingly to help you achieve optimal results.
