Abstract:
Tibetan medicine is one example of a traditional cultural health care system. Unitl recently, geographic barriers have permitted this medicial tradition to evolve in an uninterrupted way. This history, concepts, and foundations of Tibertan medicine are closely interwoven with those of Buddhism in Tibet (1-15). The following essay is an introductory overview of Tibetan medicine. The purpose of this essay is to provide a conceptual framework and a proper perspective for understanding a highly edited translation of one chapter from a traditional Tibetan medical text.

Abstract:
Tibetan medicine, also known as Sowa Rigpa (the science of healing) is the traditional medicine indigenous to Tibetan peoples across the Himalayas and the Tibetan plateau. Historically, its aetiology, nosology, treatments, and training have been closely connected to Tibetan Buddhism, language, and environments. The last three or four decades of standardisation and commercialisation in China and beyond have brought Tibetan medicine, ideas, experts, and institutions to new patient groups and new markets. This study investigates the ways in which Tibetan medicine has moved out of Tibetan communit

Abstract:
As an important part of the traditional Chinese medicine system, Tibetan medicine has its unique treatment methods for diabetes mellitus and its complications. Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most serious diabetic microvascular diseases. Tibetan medicine believes that the occurrence of DN is closely related to renal function changes, and it can be effectively prevented and treated by improving renal lesions. In this paper, we consult ancient books of Tibetan medicine and summarize the medicines that treat kidney disease in the Tibetan medicine system. The Chinese name, English name, an

Abstract:
The Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan is an independent state situated between China and India. It emerged as a unified polity in the early 17th century under the rule of an exiled Tibetan religious leader and much of its elite culture, including its medical traditions, were brought from Tibet during this period. The Bhutanese Traditional Medical system subsequently evolved distinct characteristics that enable it to be viewed as a separate part of the Himalayan tradition of Sowa Rigpa (̒the science of healing̓), which includes what is now known as Tibetan Medicine.

Of these, sixty-seven have been summarised and commented on, and five of these, each representative of one type of the practice, have been translated in full.

Abstract:
This thesis is an ethnography and situated history of Tibetan medical practitioners in Tsang and Shigatse Prefecture, Central Tibet. It analyses how as individuals and groups, Tibetan medical doctors – the so-called amchi – have adapted and transformed their medical practices and multiple traditions of the Tibetan Science of Healing, or Sowa Rigpa. The principal argument is that amchi in the area studied have, at times and in certain places, held considerable agency in processes of transforming their traditions. This is despite and because of the ongoing Communist reforms, campaigns and struct
