TCM for treating Lungs Fiberosis
TCM for treating Lungs Fiberosis
Comment by Chad J. Dupuis, L.Ac.
As with anything in Chinese medicine there isn’t a treatment for “x”. You have to use both western medical knowledge and knowledge of Chinese Medicine to look at the underlying causes and then you treat those primarily. Even from a western perspective pulmonary fibrosis can be contributed to by smoking, reflux, genetics, etc. So the treatment would vary.
You should read “What Does Acupuncture Treat?” and “Acupuncture Point Treatment Plan”.
In our Tam Healing system important points regardless of the underlying issues and overall treatment plan would be the huatuo points at T1 (bone marrow and lungs), T3 (lungs) and T6 (diaphragm).
