Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine is gaining attention because of its unique theoretical bases (ie, Yin-Yang and Five-Element theories), which differ substantially from the bases of Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasises the importance of boosting the individual's endogenous healing ability via preventive, holistic, and health-preserving approaches, using formula prescriptions, natural products, acupuncture, and physical exercise. In 2018, for the first time, WHO included traditional Chinese medicine in its influential global medical compendium. Parkinson's disease-like symptoms have been described at length in ancient Chinese medicine books and the use of many ancient remedies is still popular in China nowadays, both for prevention and treatment of Parkinson's disease.
