File photo taken on May 24, 2003 shows a man experiencing cupping by roadside in Guiyang, capital of southwest China's Guizhou Province. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), one of the world's oldest forms of medicine with different practices including acupuncture, bee-sting therapy, cupping, moxibustion, scrapping, tui na (Chinese therapeutic massage), still prevails in the modern society after thousands of years of evolution, during which generations have restored and maintained health depending on it. The World Health Organization disease index was updated to include references to traditional Chinese medicine for the first time in June 2018. (Xinhua)
