Oriental Medicine is both ancient, having been in use for thousands of years,  and modern, in that it answers questions about health, healing, and life that perplex modern bio-biomedical science today. 

What it offers to the western world is a much needed understanding of man as an integrated whole, where the parts are not seen as separate and isolated entities, as they are in the west, but rather are viewed as interconnected to all other parts. In the western world where people complain of feeling disjointed, disconnected, and empty inside, oriental medicine in its holistic vantage point helps people to heal by helping them to become whole. 

Oriental medicine brings to a holistic understanding of wellness and the healing process an understanding of qi, as a vital life force, the concept of wellness as a dynamic state of harmony and balance, and the concept of yin and yang. 

Wellness from an oriental perspective can only be fully present when there is harmony within the individual and between the individual and his environment. The oriental physician not only considers the physical, emotional and mental signs and symptoms, but ideally looks also at the patient's relationship with his environment for the cause of the patients disease. 

bullet Harmony and balance -  To live in harmony means not only to have a harmonious relationship with one's immediate environment, but ideally to exist in a state of harmony with all of nature. This approach to life leads to the desire to avoid extremes and one-sidedness, and to prefer the inclusionary consideration of both sides, seeking a harmony that arises out of compromise that leads to integration, rather than to focus on one side at the expense and exclusion of the other. While western thinking tends to emphasize the differences between things, finding one good and the other bad, oriental thinking looks more for the common denominator existing between all things, seeing the apparent opposites as complementary, rather than contrary. 
bullet Wholeness: The eastern desire to keep sight of the whole in all activities is another difference between the east and the west, which tends to focus on details and on  individual separate entities apart from the whole. This parts-oriented approach forms the foundation on which western science rests. 
bullet Centeredness:  While western man tends to look outside of himself for harmony and balance, in the east it is understood that the strive for harmony can only be successful if it is also expressed inwardly through finding and living in one's own center in harmony with one's deepest desires and through conquering one's fears. In this context it is not surprising that most meditative techniques originated in the far east or India.
