Image description

Asian, Chinese Surgical instrument set, Chinese, 18th-19th century. Steel instruments in a folding leather case decorated with Chinese characters. Chinese medicine is based on ancient texts that relate philosophy and cosmology to the body and health. The earliest texts date from around 200 BC and describe the ïchi or ïqi, the life force that must be nurtured and balanced throughout the body. They also describe the system of opposites known as ïYin Yang. Traditional treatments are diverse and include herbal remedies, acupuncture, massage and meditation, dietary and lifestyle advice, and other techniques including moxibustion and cupping as well as some surgical procedures. In China today, traditional medicine is practised alongside Western medicine. ©SSPL/Science Museum
