ACUPUNCTURE, Chinese massage, cupping therapy - local resident Fan Meixian spent 5 yuan (78 US cents) receiving traditional Chinese medicine treatment from Dr Zhang Hongxiang in the People Village Clinic of Jiading Industrial Zone.
In recent years, all grassroots medical institutions have made full use of their specialties to provide various health care services such as traditional Chinese medicine, rehabilitation and physical therapies, as well as establishing family health archives, based on residents' needs.
Malu Town community health service center is one of the demonstration sites featuring TCM in Shanghai. Since the Chinese believe that winter diseases should be treated in summer, the demand for TCM treatment increases sharply in summer. Therefore, a 400-square-meter TCM hall was opened in the health center last year, and six reputable TCM doctors were available.
Local citizen Quan Ping had always suffered from backache, yet after two weeks of acupuncture and cupping treatment, her pain was greatly relieved. Some patients said the Chinese medicine hall is decorated in Chinese classical style and is very cool in summer. They felt relaxed by the faint scent of Chinese medical herbs.
It is reported that nearly 200 patients have come to the health center every day since the Chinese medicine hall opened, double the previous number.
Lots of fans have been attracted to Dr Qiu's Clinic located in Jiaxin Community, Juyuan New Area, since its opening in July. Qiu Yimin, Zhao Weiping and two other general practitioners have become the family doctors of more than 3,000 residents there.
Recently, Dr Qiu's Clinic has created family health records for all residents with the help of the residential committee as well as social volunteers.
