3.Shen Foundation
Exploring ways in which Western and Chinese Medicine can complement each other in the treatment and diagnosis of diseases will tremendously benefit the patient. Depending on the patient, each of whom is unique, and the real cause of disease, different methods may be utilized for each person even though on the symptom level the illness may appear the same. Incorporation of Chinese medicine into the Western medical model could help many more people, much more economically -with its emphasis on astute, precise and low cost diagnosis- into a new Modern Health Care System. The development of both Chinese and Western medicines will lead society as a whole to become the beneficiary.
