In ancient Chinese medicine, it’s said that “the physician who
knows how to harmonize the liver knows how to
treat the hundred diseases.” The liver, one of the largest and
hardest-working organs in the body, is believed to be of the “wood element” and
is crucial for the transformation of food into energy, or qi.
Referred to as the ultimate multitasking organ, ancient practitioners believed
that the liver was one of the primary organs that needed to be treated in sick
patients. When the liver doesn’t perform properly, distention and
discomfort within the digestive system result, which can then spread harm to
other parts of the body.
