Focus on diseases
Zangyitong focuses on severe mental disorders, Tourette syndrome and tic disorders, Parkinson’s disease, cervical dystonia, post-stroke sequelae, and bipolar disorder.
The course of illness, medication, and care needs vary among different diseases. We assist in organizing medical records, examination reports, and past treatment records to clarify any questions we wish to ask Tibetan physicians. Whether it is suitable to receive Tibetan medicine diagnosis and treatment, as well as specific diagnosis and treatment arrangements, are evaluated by the attending physician.
Six key diseases of concern
Bipolar disorder (bipolar disorder)
Understand the medical needs based on emotional outbursts, sleep, past medical history, and current medication; If considering Tibetan medicine diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to coordinate with psychiatric treatment and not stop taking medication or adjust mood stabilizers on one's own.
Parkinson's disease
Conduct Tibetan medicine evaluation around tremors, stiffness, mobility, and living conditions, with physicians assessing the applicability of Tibetan medicine and external treatments, and coordinating with existing neurology treatment and rehabilitation arrangements.
Cervical dystonia (spastic torticollis)
Based on neck posture, pain, limited mobility, and previous treatment, the Tibetan physician evaluates the applicability of Tibetan medicine and external treatment, and specific items need to be confirmed through face-to-face consultation.
Tourette's syndrome and Tourette's syndrome
Tibetan medicine syndrome differentiation is based on tic manifestations, disease course, sleep, and daily status. Tibetan medicine and dietary adjustments are evaluated according to age and past treatment history, and no fixed single prescription is used.
Mental disorders such as schizophrenia
Tibetan medicine emphasizes the overall evaluation of mental, sleep, and physical performance when seeking medical treatment. Tibetan physicians differentiate and judge the applicability of Tibetan medicine and lifestyle adjustments, and coordinate with existing psychiatric treatments.
Sequelae of stroke
On the basis of standardized treatment and rehabilitation, understanding physical activity, language, and self-care needs, and then having Tibetan physicians evaluate whether it is suitable to cooperate with Tibetan medicine diagnosis and treatment, does not replace stroke prevention and rehabilitation training.
