摘要

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is one of the world’s oldest healing systems—with over 4000 years of history—and integrates diverse schools, models, and therapeutic approaches. Core principles include yin and yang; the five phases; and the regulation of qi, blood, and body fluids. Rather than as fixed diagnoses, diseases are seen as dynamic patterns that are differentiated on an individual basis. Fatigue has been a major focus of TCM for centuries, with approaches ranging from tonification and digestive strengthening to preserving yin or activating yang. Recently, the concept of “floating yang” has gained importance in understanding myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), often linked to stress and modern overstimulation. Traditional Chinese medicine applies five main therapies: herbal medicine, acupuncture, tuina massage, dietary therapy, and qigong. Qigong, beyond relaxation, trains energy regulation, resilience, and emotional balance, supporting both healing and prevention, and should not be missing from any holistic approach to treating ME/CFS.
