„Doktor, lesen Sie mir aus den alten buddhistischen Schriften vor?”

Increased incidence of psychosomatic diseases in modern China and dissatisfying results with the usual practice of traditional Chinese methods have stimulated the formation of a new field in Chinese Medicine. Under the term of traditional Chinese psychosomatics, western psychotherapy, psychotropic drugs, acupuncture, moxibustion and Chinese prescriptions of Materia medica are combined in treatment. In this example of a clinic in China, settings are described which allow for the multimodal integration of traditional Chinese methods with psychotherapy according to recent concepts in the West, pharmacology of psychotropic drugs, and adjuvant stimulation therapies.
