chinese medicine gaining respect in the west

It's about time that chinese medicine is earning it's respectability. Whether it be for pain, gyno, emotional or physical ailments, TCM has indeed lasted this long and been practiced this long---because it works! The US medical system has flaws, and TCM in it's holistic viewpoint picks up the slack. I can't tell you how many people i've met that are thrilled to know that "it's all connected" and their signs and symptoms are not just wacky or absurd.
