Nowadays, it is probably difficult to meet a person who has not heard about Eastern medicine. It has been in demand for a long time, clinics that offer treatment using ancient knowledge are advertised in many cities and countries. However, few people know what exactly is, as practitioners say, traditional oriental medicine. To get answers to your questions, the special correspondent of the online radio "Voice of the CIS" went to Ulan-Ude, to the Center for Eastern Medicine (CVM).
The Buryat Center for Eastern Medicine is the only state organization in Russia. The center has a 24-hour hospital, which is also not found in our country. Scientific support of the medical activities of the Center is provided by scientists from the St. Petersburg Chemical-Pharmaceutical Academy, the Buryat Scientific Center of the SB RAS and the Buryat State University.
The staff of the Center defended 7 candidate works in the field of traditional medicine, published more than 100 scientific articles, several monographs.
With approximately such a baggage of knowledge, the special correspondent of the online radio "Voice of the CIS" went to the Center for Eastern Medicine. The head of the department of therapy, honored doctor of the Republic of Buryatia, candidate of medical sciences in the field of phytotherapy Turtuev Tsybikzhap Dorzhievich and honored doctor of the Republic of Buryatia, candidate of medical sciences, specialist in traditional medicine Matypov Dambi Leonidovich agreed to tell in more detail about traditional medicine and the uniqueness of this particular Center.
So what is the uniqueness of the Buryat Center for Oriental Medicine?
“The unique geographical location of the Republic of Buryatia at the junction of East and West, its cultural specificity, popularity among the population of traditional methods of treatment served as the basis for a fundamental scientific study of Tibetan medicine in our region and its introduction into practical health care.
In the 17-19th centuries, due to the wide spread of Buddhism, Tibeto-Mongolian medicine took root on the territory of Buryatia, combining the best achievements of the ancient Indian Vedic and traditional Chinese medical systems, the traditions of healing the peoples of Inner Asia and the Middle East."

Tsybikzhap Turtuev added that the mixing of Tibetan medicine and Russian herbalism in this region has led to a new branch of treatment, herbal medicine or, more correctly, herbal medicine. In the Center for Oriental Medicine, this direction is actively used and, moreover, all the doctors of the clinic are trained in this direction. Individual prescriptions of drugs are selected for patients entering the digital computer.
The main advantage of the approach to the treatment of patients is the complex application of the means and methods of traditional medicine, natural healing factors (climatic and balneotherapy), as well as the achievements of modern medicine.
Moreover, using only the methods of Tibetan medicine is generally prohibited by law!
As Dambi Matypov explains, this type of treatment is undeservedly equated with shamanism, clairvoyance and other occult services. But the World Health Organization is already taking steps towards oriental treatment methods. It is recognized at the highest level that Tibetan medicine can be used, but naturally under control. The Ministry of Health of Buryatia is already engaged in this - all procedures carried out in the digital computer have been agreed.
Therefore, when entering a digital computer, you should not expect that you will immediately begin to drink herbs and prick with needles. We'll have to go through standard procedures, get tested, but the treatment will not be quite standard.
Eastern methods involve treating a person, not a disease. To achieve this, the patient must eat properly and lead a certain lifestyle. From this, they will start at the digital computer, and only after that they will determine the necessary procedures. It can be herbal medicine, acupuncture, wushu gymnastics, and much more.
In general, in order to understand how you will be treated, you first need to come there. You can get to the Center for Oriental Medicine both for a fee and for free from any region. Answers to all questions on this topic can be obtained from the call-center of the clinic, but it should be warned that there are a lot of people who wish and will have to wait.
The fact is that the Center for Oriental Medicine of Buryatia specializes in restorative rehabilitation, people come here after strokes and craniocerebral injuries, and leave completely healthy. Isn't it proof that Tibetan medicine has the right to be recognized along with standard therapies?
The special pride of the center is the Automated Pulse Diagnostic Complex (APDK), developed by the clinic's specialists together with the Buryat Scientific Center. It combines the traditions of ancient Tibetan medicine and modern instrumental computerized approaches.
“APDK PRODUCES AN INTEGRAL ASSESSMENT OF THE FUNCTIONAL STATE OF THE ORGANISM, AS WELL AS DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF 12 INTERNAL ORGANS AT THE SAME TIME, INCLUDING THE RESPIRATORY GASTRINE, CARDIAC THE INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULTS LEADS TO INTERPRETATION BOTH FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF TRADITIONAL TIBETAN AND EUROPEAN MEDICINE."
The issues of recognition of Tibetology are constantly raised at various international conferences on oriental medicine. Tibetologists from Russia, Mongolia, China, Korea, Armenia and other countries gather there. Traditionally, they send their proposals to the World Health Organization, and even in the State Duma of the Russian Federation there is a department that deals with this issue.
It is worth voicing an interesting idea that Dambi Leonidovich expressed to me at the end of the communication in the digital computer. Its essence is that the car code of Buryatia is 03, and the ambulance phone number in our country is also 03. This means that Buryatia should promote oriental medicine along the path of its recognition at the very top. It is possible to legally regulate the use of Tibetan healing methods, even if only in those regions in which they have been used for centuries. For example, Buryatia, Kalmykia, Tuva - in these places traditional medicine began to be used for a long time.
