ancient chinese medicine and role of doctor at that time!

assalammualaikum...and a every good day to all.

wow....today is the first time my group and i present something about deities in front of our class. our topic is about ancient chinese medicine and the role of doctor at that time.
we are the first group to present our presentation and i am proud of it.

we touch about tui na, tai chi, acupuncture and herbs that involve in ancient chinese treatment.
tui na or massage is refers to techniques to massage the body using bare hands. meanwhile, tai chi is refers as slow motion of movement in order to achieve Qi, the vital energy according to the chinese believe.

the chinese ancient doctors chose their herbs using the five tastes technique involving salty,pungent,bitter,sweet and sour. each of these taste of its own unique function.

we also talk a bit about history how the ancient chinese believe in shamans and devils. during that time, illness is believe to be the work of the devils. for example, chinese first emperor died because of his shaman. he died due to mercury poisoning.

however, there were famous doctors that became the first generation as real doctors such as bian que.

the doctors at that time are not well accepted by the chinese society at that time. the dcotors are only paid when the patient are completely heal after the treatments.

among the best philosophy used at that is "one cannot destriy life in order to save life" and "doctors are advised to treat their patients kindly without looking at their age, status, money and else".

other group also present their own topic. some talk about african medicine, indian medicine and japanese medicine.

for example, in japanese culture, doctors are not well accepted by the society who strongly hold to their believe in spiritual treatment such as going to the temple. indian deities is famous with its ayurveda, one of four most popular element use in indian medicine.

miss adila also gives advices to us on how to present something properly and to improve our presentation. one of her advices is not to look the the slide during the presentation but read it at the laptop and audiences please pay attention.

hehehe....i am looking for the next groups to present and i also anxious with my next presentation.

okey, that all for today and wish me all the best. thank you.....
