Restlessness, in a medical context, refers to an individual's inability to remain still, often accompanied by a sense of inner unease. This condition manifests through constant fidgeting, involuntary movements, and an overwhelming need to move about. Restlessness can affect a person's ability to concentrate, sleep, or even engage in routine activities. It is commonly associated with anxiety, stress, or certain neurological conditions, leading to a persistent state of agitation and discomfort.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), restlessness is not seen as a singular symptom with a one-size-fits-all cause. Instead, TCM views restlessness as a manifestation of various underlying patterns of disharmony within the body. These patterns could stem from imbalances in the body's Yin and Yang, the Stagnation of Qi, or the presence of excess Heat. Identifying the specific pattern causing restlessness is essential for effective treatment, as different patterns require different therapeutic approaches.
