概述

Pattern Differentiation and Treatment is the fundamental principle and core characteristic of Traditional Chinese Medicine for understanding and treating disease, encompassing two processes: pattern differentiation and treatment determination. It emphasizes individualized and dynamic care based on the specific pattern of disharmony.

理論要點

  • Pattern differentiation involves analyzing and synthesizing information gathered through the four diagnostic methods to identify the cause, location, nature, and the relationship between righteous Qi and pathogenic factors, culminating in a specific pattern.
  • Treatment determination, also known as applying treatment, establishes the corresponding therapeutic principles, methods, and formulas based on the differentiated pattern.
  • The principle that same pattern, same treatment; different pattern, different treatment underlies practices such as treating the same disease with different methods and treating different diseases with the same method.
  • Pattern Differentiation and Treatment stresses individualization and dynamic adjustment, with treatment modified as the pattern evolves during the course of illness.

常見病機

  • Disease manifestations are understood through the lens of pattern, which reflects the underlying disharmony of Yin-Yang, Qi and Blood, and the visceral systems.
  • The same disease may present with different patterns, while different diseases may share the same pattern, guiding therapeutic choices.
  • Patterns are not static; they change with the progression of illness and response to treatment, requiring ongoing reassessment.

日常調養

  • Maintain a balanced lifestyle, including regular sleep and moderate exercise, to support the body's righteous Qi.
  • Follow dietary and emotional guidance tailored to one's individual pattern to harmonize the body's state.
  • Seek timely professional assessment to ensure treatment aligns with the current pattern.
