Five-Element Theory
Each bodily organ is associated with one of the five elements in Chinese medicine: fire, earth, metal, water, and wood. The five-element theory focuses on the condition of each organ, whether it is in or out of balance, and also the interrelationship between different organs. In chronic disease, the imbalance often involves more than one organ. The theory suggests that one imbalanced organ can adversely affect other organs, as when one upset family member can cause the other family members to become upset.
