Experts urge more TCM use

Experts and practitioners yesterday called for the expansion of traditional Chinese medicine's (TCM) global influence.

"The world is rapidly embracing TCM. It's like an infant who needs care, attention and guidance," Michele Ball, a TCM doctor licensed in Toronto, Canada, and an instructor at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, told an international forum in Beijing yesterday.

TCM belongs not only to China but also to every country, she said.
