Thai traditional medicine - what areas does it include?
Thai traditional medicine dates back over 2,500 years. This is, first of all, deep knowledge, centuries-tested recipes passed down from generation to generation orally.
Officially, Thai traditional medicine began its development in 1182. The state of Thailand did not yet exist, but at that time it was called Sukhothai. In the second half of the 19th century, traditional medicine in Thailand became illegal: healers were declared charlatans, but they still continued to secretly treat people. It was only in 1978 that traditional medicine in Thailand received official status.

Thai traditional medicine today is a comprehensive approach to treating diseases. The complex includes diets, Thai massage, acupuncture and reflexology, pharmaceuticals: balms, ointments, tinctures, powders, teas and much more. Everything is made only from natural ingredients (herbs, fruit juices, vegetable oils, dried bark, leaves, roots...).
Thai diet
Traditional Thai food includes rice, fish, seafood, vegetables, fruits, spices (turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon, ginger root) and tea (tonic drink). This is dietary nutrition.
Diet food in Thai also means fractional meals every three hours.
Thai massage
Particular attention should be paid, of course, to Thai massage. It differs significantly from massage in our understanding. This is a whole system that includes a variety of methods of influence, such as strong pressure on muscles, exercises reminiscent of yoga poses, opening of joints, stretching, reflexology, and activating the energy flow in the human body.
In Thai massage, acupuncture and reflexology, as in all systems of the East, there is the concept of restoring energy balance. According to Thai healers, energy circulates in the human body through many “sen” energy channels. It is believed that the cause that underlies all mental and physical illnesses is disturbances in energy channels or their blockage. When the energy imbalance is eliminated, the cause that causes the disease also disappears.

Acupuncture and reflexology
This is an effect on certain points of the body that are responsible for the health of certain organs of the human body.
Exposure to needles – acupuncture or acupuncture.
Foot massage – reflexology.
Thai pharmacy
What is mainly treated in Thai medicine? The answer is simple - everything!
Thai balms and ointments, known far beyond the borders of Siam, for their unique properties, rightfully occupy first place among herbal medicines.
The first Thai balms were developed by monks for warriors.The compounds were developed over many centuries in Buddhist monasteries and were kept in the strictest confidence. They are used in the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal and respiratory systems and B viral hepatitis, cancer and skin diseases. Thai balms are also used in the treatment of a person’s psycho-emotional state.
The composition of tinctures and ointments includes components such as poison, blood, animal organs, and minerals, which have not only a therapeutic, but also a restorative and preventive effect on humans.
A variety of honey-based gels, inhalers, and dry fruit mixtures are designed to help with various ailments.

The Thai pharmacy sells teas and juice.But, apparently, the Thais do not understand what tea is. For them, this is a brewed collection of herbs, but in fact it is a medicinal herbal tea. And among the juices there is noni juice and composite juices of various healers, which act on the body precisely.Noni juice has a rich complex of substances, stimulates cell division and restores the functioning of the immune system.
The advantage of Thai medicine over modern medicines is that they do not contain “chemistry”.
Thai traditional medicine, unlike most traditional trends in modern European medicine, has set as its goal not the treatment of a single organ or disease, but a comprehensive revival of the entire organism.
