Eastern medicine has an impressive philosophical and religious base - Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, as well as a large number of teaching methods. Acupuncture would never have become a universal system of medical knowledge if it had not had at its disposal the theory of "fighting battle" with diseases, which includes rules and principles of prescriptions, selection of acupuncture points, herbs, minerals, species All of this is part of a strategy for taking therapeutic action against the disease. The calculation of the prescription is based on the knowledge of the "energy possibilities" of the disease in comparison with the energy capabilities of the therapist and the patient. The main goal of the therapist - to defeat the disease in the most effective way - in the optimal time with the least effort and resources. Most of the ancient recipes in Chinese medicine, be it zhen ju therapy, therapeutic nutrition or pharmacology, were made using meditative techniques of cognition of the world, rather than by trial and error, as some modern researchers believe. The art of making recipes has its roots in prehistoric times. Historiographically, this art is marked (codified) by the period of the zhou dynasty (11th century - 771 BC). Over time, knowledge about the art of writing prescriptions in zhen ju therapy was fleshed out and always had ancestral and clan succession, passing along the male line.
