“A treatment and education unit for alternative Chinese medicine will be opened in Egypt in the coming few months,” confirmed Dr.Samy Abdel Samad Nasef, the dean of faculty of Physical Therapy at the Egyptian Chinese University (ECU).

This unit will be affiliated to the faculty and the Ministry of Education and Higher Education.

Patients in Egypt will be able to receive professional treatment through specified Chinese doctors.

Students at the faculty of physical therapy will be trained to apply these new treatment's techniques.

It’s worth mentioning that some Arab countries like Morocco, the UAE and Qatar have established hospitals for Chinese medicine and amazing results have been achieved so far.

Those three countries became able to treat the endemic diseases in Africa by using acupuncture, Chinese herbs, massage and cupping.

It is remarkable that Chinese treatment depends mainly on the power of human body while medicine in western countries depends on diagnosing diseases through scanning and analysis.
