Clinical research on safety and efficacy/benefit of T&CM modalities
Clinical research on safety, efficacy and benefits of T&CM modalities
T&CM modalities such as hilot, traditional Chinese medicine (acupuncture, tuina, qigong), Ayurveda, homeopathy, chiropractic, osteopathy, naturopathy, and anthroposophy present varying levels of usefulness as complementary (or even alternative) options in an integrative approach to health care.
Gathered research evidence should confirm the safety and effectiveness of the T&CM modalities for a healthful lifestyle.
PITAHC shall lead this research cluster, with stakeholders to include the academe of the UP system, state universities and colleges, higher education institutes, training hospitals, practitioners, health professional societies and others.
