Doctors and ideas
We usually go to a doctor when we feel bad and we want to know what is wrong with us. We expect that doctors should know about our disease and how to cure it. At different times doctors had different ideas about how to diagnose and treat people.
Ayurvedic medicine started in India about 3 000 years ago. Ayurvedic doctos ask a patient about their life – how they live, what they eat and how they feel. To make people well and to prevent illness, Ayurvedic doctors tell people what foods to eat and what exercise to do. They also give people medicines made from plants, and they show them how to do yoga. Today many people around the world use Ayurvedic medicine.
Acupuncture is a type of medicine that people have used for thousands of years in China, Japan and Korea. Today, people use acupuncture in many places around the world. Acupuncture doctors put thin needles into a patients body at special places called acupuncture points. The needles stay in the body for up to 30 minutes, then the doctor takes them out. No one really knows how acupuncture works, but people often use it to treat backache, toothache and headaches and to stop people feeling ill.
