My Personal Journey: Why I Chose to Visit a Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was in late May, I had a light dizziness from the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This dizziness was not the first time but also in last December (Dec. 2020),<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I woke up from a terrible dizziness which prevented me from doing anything for the next 3 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was during the consecutive holidays (series of holidays)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but I was not able to do anything due to my dizziness <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and decided to visit BNH Hospital which is in our neighborhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

BNH Hospital prescribed me Vertigo medicine which helped me recover in 2 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the dizziness came back in February and had again to visit the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And this time is the 3rd<\/sup> time that I am experiencing this dizziness again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I felt a very light dizziness from the morning but it was not as serious as that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I cannot live rest of the day normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

But it happened in the weekend when I was having my massage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was so really terrible dizziness that I saw ceiling going round and round and round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And after that, I vomited and wasn\u2019t able to walk, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

not even a step, and had to stay lying down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This time, I visited Bamrungrad Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was diagnosed with stress and lack of good sleep <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and was prescribed with very strong sleeping pills<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and medicine to stop my dizziness but they didn\u2019t help much, if not at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

It was high time that I thought that I want to have a treatment not by coping with the situation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

just for time being as the western remedies<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but to have a treatment that will fix the root cause and improve my constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(I am not denying western remedy at all)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Huachiew TCM Clinic was my Top Choice for Chinese Medicine Treatment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thailand has many people who have their roots in China<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and that\u2019s why there are so many Traditional Chinese Medicine clinics are here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And in Thailand, they accept Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors as qualified doctors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Before I knock the door in Huachiew TCM Clinic,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used to visit small Traditional Chinese Medicine clinic twice in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve visited the small clinic then because I had this sudden itchiness on my skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The skin itchiness had disappeared after 2 visits to the clinic and 2 weeks of Chinese medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two types in Chinese medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

One type is such one as a supplement<\/span> and the other is by boiling the herbs<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But small clinics mostly have only 1 or 2 doctor(s) meaning that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

it is not every day that the doctor is there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Therefore very difficult to make an appointment thus<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to find one easier to make an appointment with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

And there I found this Huachiew TCM Clinic<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the main reasons why I decide to visit this clinic was because,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

they had doctors specialized in specific areas <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and were many of such doctors working there to help people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding the Unique Diagnosis Methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine at Huachiew TCM Clinic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Diagnosis method of the doctor is as the following<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patients explain to the doctor on his\/her symptom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doctor measure his\/her pulse by the wrist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check the tongue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pulse is measured also in the normal hospital but here it is done manually by the doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The doctor, so I was told, is also checking the patient\u2019s pulse speed and the hardness of the blood vessel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The color, shape, and thickness for the tongue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

My tongue, doctor told me, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

is having teeth mark and is bumpy on the side suggesting that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a swollen body and have weak gastrointestinal system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The doctor is consulting the patient\u2019s \u201cconstitution\u201d from various angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

By understanding the patient\u2019s constitution,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the doctor prepares treatment plan according to the patient\u2019s such.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

They say the treatment does not have an immediate effect<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but it will slowly and surely improve the symptoms<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and also at the same time allow maintaining healthy condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I had Acupuncture doctor and internist (prescribes Traditional Chinese Medicine) diagnosed me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acupuncture sticks needle along the meridians <\/p>\n\n\n\n

where you want the symptom to be improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"Huachiew<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meridian, in Traditional Chinese Medicine,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

is said to be the route where the energy, blood, and nutrients that flows in our body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
