Differentiating syndrome to decide treatment is the greatest characteristic of TCM. The result of syndrome differentiation should be applied to determine the corresponding principles and methods of life cultivation and rehabilitation. Under the guidance of differentiating syndrome to decide treatment, the same disease with different syndromes is also rehabilitated differently while different diseases with the same syndrome are rehabilitated in the same way, too. Besides, the principle of combination of syndrome differentiation with disease differentiation should be concurrently taken into consideration in guiding rehabilitation. More information, please read
