AIDS and HIV are…

In Western Medicine the HIV infection that lead to AIDS can be described as:

"A specific group of diseases or conditions that result from suppression of the immune system related to infection with the virus (HIV). A person infected with HIV gradually loses immune function along with certain immune cells, called CD4 T-lymphocytes or CD4 T-cells.  This in turn causes the infected person to become vulnerable to pneumonia, fungal infections, and other common ailments.

"With the loss of immune function, a clinical syndrome (a group of various illnesses that together characterize a disease) develops over time due to opportunistic infections (infections by organisms that do not normally cause disease except in persons whose immune system has been greatly weakened) or cancers the occurrence of certain systemic infections or malignancies predictive of impaired cellular-mediated immunity in the absence of other causes; evidence of HIV infection".

The Pattern…

HIV usually evolves from a latent stage with initial symptoms such as fever, dizziness, sore throat, sweating, weakness, joint pain, diarrhea, rashes and generalized lymphadenopathy.  It can be followed by an asymptotic latency period.  That is a period where their are no apparent symptoms and the person feels healthy and unaffected by the HIV virus.  TCM can be of use at this stage by providing natural and holistic  treatments for these secondary symptoms.  the judicious use of Imperial Tonics during these early day, together with the medications prescribed by your health practitioner can help keep the body in this latent phase as long as possible.  It is important to address each and every problem quickly and effectively.  It is during this time that the patient should set themselves the goal of finding a practitioner they can work with and they can trust, and with whom communication is easy.

When the HIV infection becomes more pronounced when symptoms including fevers, weight loss, night sweats, diarrhea, thrush or candida, lymphadenitis, skin lesions, herpes and depression are more pronounced and more frequent.

TCM…

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory believes there is no isolated body function. TCM understands that the organs and body functions are interdependent upon each another.  In TCM, the immune function is made up of several different aspects that influence your natural balance and energy (Qi or Chi).

Positive Life, Positive Attitude...

Persons with AIDS are surviving for longer and longer periods of time.  This is due in part to an introduction of exciting new therapies and the rediscovery of many older ones (including TCM).  Western Medicine has developed many advancement treatments for persons with HIV infection.  By combining those new advances with established TCM treatments and other complementary therapies such as Acupuncture, we have valuable tools to combat the progress of the HIV and AIDS pattern.

For many centuries TCM practitioners have been called upon to support patients whose immune systems have been weakened by stress, exposure to toxic substances, improper dietary practices and of course aging.  TCM have historically been used to treat many of the symptoms now exhibited by HIV infected persons.

Using TCM…

The objective of TCM in HIV is to strengthen the immune system (Qi or Chi) and resolve the problem of excessive heat and its secondary effects. In TCM terms "heat" refers to the toxic "heat" generated by bacterial and viral infections. These factors compromise the body's defenses, making the disease more virulent. This makes it very important, whenever possible, to start a program while the patient is still asymptotic. Additionally it is essential to address each and every secondary problem as quickly and effectively as possible.
