Combined with the transformation of modern medicine, the author analyzed the instructional value of the academic theories proposed in the Huangdi Neijing. These theories include medical modes varying from medicine focusing on disease to medicine focusing on health, from biomedicine to ecological medicine, from the treatment of conditions to the treatment of the patient, from group therapy to individual therapy, and from disease treatment to holistic treatment. Through analysis of these treatment modalities the implications of their possible use in future medicine can be assessed.
