Research mirrors the reality of clinical practice in a society. Korean medicine (KM) shares many medical theories, principles, and interventions with other Traditional Eastern Asian Medicines (TEAM) which is due to Koreau0027s interaction over the last two millennia with its geographical neighbors. Korean medicine however has developed specific clinical approaches and characteristics which can be observed when studying Korean medicine practitioners. These distinctive features and characteristics of Korean medicine have arisen due to the unique medical environment and resources shaped by the geological, cultural, and economic forces of ancient and modern Korea. We believe that the unique features of KM have evolved not only through the influence of the larger TEAM regional activity but also through the influence of local regional KM practices.
