Abstract:
With the deepening of the "Belt and Road" initiative, Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) presents new opportunities for the development of TCM. In recent years, CEE countries have made some progress in TCM by expanding legislation, establishing educational systems, and diversifying services. These advancements are attributed to cultural recognition, evolving health concepts, and government support. However, challenges persist in sustainability, legal adaptability, and a shortage of professional talents. To effectively tackle these challenges, this article proposed the following suggestions: gradual integration, initial implementation of non-pharmaceutical therapy-centered TCM health services to address legal adaptation issues; empowering with technology to alleviate talent shortage by launching remote medical service models; tailoring measures to local conditions and promote the sustainable development of the TCM industry by integrating regional characteristics; thereby promoting the robust development of TCM in the CEE regions.
