During this medical camp, the medical team not only provided medications but also performed various therapies such as cupping, acupuncture, bloodletting, moxibustion, stick therapy, and aromatherapy. The medical team also recommended good diets and lifestyles based on the patients’ physical conditions. They found that many patients lacked basic health awareness, and many minor health issues had not been properly treated, leading to more severe health problems. Therefore, they hoped that through this medical camp, they could raise the patients’ health awareness and also study how to help them more effectively in the future.
The medical camp received enthusiastic feedback and support from the participants and was successfully carried out with the blessings of His Eminence Khrulshig Rinpoche and Maratika. Little Yellow Flower Foundation looks forward to spreading love and care to all corners of the world in the future.
