Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is having a millennial moment! From TikTok tutorials on acupuncture to AI-powered herbal prescriptions, this 2,500-year-old practice is winning over Gen Z through scrollable wisdom. 📱✨
In a recent China Popcast episode, experts Professor Wang Lepeng and Dr. Zheng Zhishan revealed how TCM bridges ancient diagnostics (think tongue checks 🔍) with modern tech. "We're seeing young people use apps to track their 'qi' balance like they monitor step counts," said Dr. Zheng, highlighting how #WellnessTok fuels TCM's global reach.
With AI now analyzing pulse patterns and social media demystifying cupping therapy, TCM isn't just trending—it's rewriting the rules of holistic health. 🌐 Whether you're a digital nomad seeking stress relief or a culture-curious student, 2025 might just be the year you "zhōngyī" and chill.
