Webster’s II New Riverside University Dictionary defines Medicine as: "the science of diagnosing, treating, or preventing disease or damage to the body or mind". As the science advances, the conventional medicine evolves to the point that it is no longer fit that definition. With the health care policies and inactive life style, today’s medicine mainly focuses on diagnosing or treating disease; the preventing part is largely being ignored. When a robot does the diagnoses, the “mind” part is forever lost.
By Webster’s definition, Healing is to restore to health or soundness. It is a natural occurrence in all-living things. A medical professional can prescribe some medications or do a procedure to treat the body, but it is the healing within that makes the body healthy. In the days before modern pharmaceuticals, our ancestors learnt to work with their own body to maintain health. They knew medicine begins with "me". These knowledge and wisdom were passed on from generations to generations in all cultures. Unfortunate, majority of these treasures are discarded or ignored because they are “unscientific” or “unproven” by today’s standards and/or abilities. It took the discovery of DNA and cloning of the sheep “Dolly” to prove the 600 BC Chinese Qigong theory “every part of the body contains all the information of the whole body” is correct. It is a two thousand plus years long journey! Most healing traditions are older than science. it will take some time for science to catch up!
