I have read a lot of studies about the ineffectiveness of many Chinese treatments. The few miracle cases can be put down to statistical anomalies or placebo effect which has been proven to be better than quack medicine in some cases.
Chinese medicine really does fail when it comes under the scrutiny of scientific method... Maybe it does work, but I personally don't believe in it.
