How does TCM view {condition_name}?
TCM views postnatal recovery as a critical period requiring restoration of depleted Qi and Blood, particularly supporting the Kidney and Spleen systems that govern energy and healing.
Postnatal recovery is a crucial period following childbirth that requires comprehensive support for both physical healing and emotional restoration, as the body works to regain strength while adjusting to new motherhood demands. At Qin's Clinic, we emphasize Traditional Chinese Medicine principles to restore balance, replenish vital energy, and support long-term maternal health through this transformative time.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), childbirth is seen as a major depletion of Qi (vital energy) and Blood, particularly affecting the Kidney and Spleen systems. This depletion can lead to fatigue, weakness, digestive issues, mood changes, and slow healing as the body struggles to restore its natural balance after the significant demands of pregnancy and delivery.
