Media workers experience the therapeutic benefits of traditional Chinese medicine, Xu Haoyu reports.

At the Main Media Centre of the Asian Games, the Exhibition Hall of Traditional Chinese Medicine Culture has become the favorite place for people to visit in their spare time.

Teachers, student volunteers and massage therapists from Zhejiang Chinese Medical University and its affiliated hospitals have contributed to the promotion of health concepts, and fostered cultural exchange by providing distinctive traditional Chinese medicine services to the media workers. Since its opening, the exhibition hall has received over 2,000 visitors. Every day, it receives approximately 200-300 visitors, and around 30 to 40 people come to experience tuina, a form of Chinese therapeutic massage.

TCM encompasses thousands of years of experience and theoretical knowledge from ancient China in the battle against disease. Under the guidance of ancient materialism and the spontaneous dialectical thinking of the time, it was gradually formed and developed through long-term medical practice into a comprehensive theoretical system.

It originated in primitive society, stemming from people's reverence of nature. By the time of the Spring and Autumn (770-476 BC) and Warring States (475-221 BC) periods, a basic medical theoretical system had already been established.

Through continuous development and refinement over successive dynasties, TCM has matured and had a profound influence on the healthcare systems of countries and regions around the world.

The exhibition hall displays classical Chinese medicine books and specimens, to introduce the concept of TCM to a broader audience.

"Through a combination of graphics, multimedia and physical objects, we hope to showcase the profound culture of TCM and explain the common health concepts shared by traditional medicine and modern sports," said Zhu Wenpei, a teacher at the university, who's also the general manager of the exhibition hall.
