The importance of integrating TCM with conventional medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of physical and mental exhaustion due to excess or lack of professional activity

The purpose of the discussion is to create bridges of connection and understanding between ancient TCM concepts and the findings of modern medicine. The approach is made in the firm belief that it has become absolutely necessary for allopathic physicians to acquire a minimum amount of TCM diagnostic knowledge. Burn-out and bore-out syndromes are the consequence and reflection of realities of the modern world. They demonstrated that after a while, the emotional stress can cause organic diseases. Direct link between signs and symptoms of a specific organ and persistence of an emotion can be achieved only by Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnostic methods. That’s why the most effective treatment must be chosen from the therapeutic arsenal of TCM.
