Part of the appeal of TCM is that it actually gets Chinese people to come in for health checks early about anything that's wrong with them.

Headache? They go to TCM and have it checked out.

If it's serious, they'll get referred to actual medicine. So in away, it's a cheap way to funnel people to where they need to be. Don't have to take expensive tests when all the patient needs is to drink plenty of fluids and take a nice placebo.
