The Mystery of the East: Why Do We Get Sick?


What if the cause of all our ailments—from excess weight and dull complexion to chronic fatigue—is not simply poor diet or lack of sleep, but something much deeper, something that has concerned Eastern healers for centuries?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers an unexpected answer: “cold” and “dampness”—two pathogenic factors that, in their view, lie at the root of many health problems.
Imagine that our body is a garden. For the plants in it to thrive, the right temperature and moisture are needed. If the garden is too damp and cold, the soil becomes heavy, the roots begin to rot, and the plants wither. In the same way, according to TCM, cold and dampness penetrate our body and accumulate in the energy channels known as meridians. They slow down the flow of vital energy qi and blood, creating blockages that, over time, manifest as various symptoms.
Excess weight and swelling: The body retains fluid to “protect itself” from cold, which leads to puffiness and weight gain.
Skin problems: Oily skin, acne, pigmentation—all of these may be signs that the body is trying to expel excess dampness.
Chronic fatigue and apathy: The slowed flow of qi prevents energy from reaching all parts of the body, causing a feeling of heaviness and exhaustion.
Headaches and joint pain: Blockages caused by cold and dampness can lead to localized pain.
This ancient Eastern wisdom encourages us to view health not as a collection of separate symptoms, but as a unified system, where each manifestation of illness is a signal of internal imbalance
“Cold” and “Dampness” are not just metaphors, but very real factors influencing health. Let’s see how they penetrate our body. Chinese medicine describes this process step by step, highlighting five levels, each reflecting the degree of the body’s “pollution.” This concept helps us understand why it is so important to act in advance, rather than wait until the problem fully manifests.
Level 1: Epidermis — The Beginning of the Path
At this stage, the problem is only starting to show itself. Cold and dampness, like a light dew, settle on the surface of our body. Their presence can be noticed through symptoms such as:
This is the easiest level to correct, because the “pollution” is located on the surface.
Level 2: Muscles and Fat Tissue — Protective Reaction
If the problem is left unattended, it penetrates deeper—into the muscle tissues and subcutaneous fat. The body begins to “insulate” itself to protect against cold, which leads to:
Level 3: Joints and Connective Tissue — Systemic Breakdown
Here the problem becomes more serious. Cold and dampness penetrate the joints, which can lead to:
Level 4: Internal Organs — Deep Damage
At this stage, the “pathogens” have penetrated so deeply into the body that they begin to affect the functioning of the internal organs. This may manifest as:
This is already a serious level, requiring a more attentive approach.
Level 5: Cellular and Genetic — Critical Threshold
The deepest and most dangerous level. Here the pathogens penetrate the cellular level, destroying the body’s harmony from within. According to Chinese medicine, it is precisely at this stage that the most serious and complex diseases may arise, as the body loses its ability to self-regulate.
Now you understand why it is so important not just to eliminate symptoms, but to work with the root cause. Wentong was developed precisely for this purpose—to warm your body from within and help it rid itself of “cold” and “dampness” at each of these five levels, preventing the development of more serious problems.
Now that we understand how “cold” and “dampness” can harm our body on five different levels, a logical question arises: what can be done about it? Eastern wisdom offers a simple yet ingenious solution — warming. And Wentong is the modern embodiment of this ancient idea.
Imagine that your body is a frozen house. You may try to warm yourself by wrapping up in blankets from the outside, but true warmth will only come when you turn on the heating inside. Wentong works precisely on this principle: it doesn’t just warm the skin, but penetrates deeply into the tissues, activating the body’s internal heat. It is not just a heating pad, but a device that initiates the process of self-recovery, aimed at eliminating the root cause—cold and dampness.
How Does Wentong Work?
The functioning of Wentong is based on the synergy of three key elements, which together provide a powerful therapeutic effect:
One of Wentong’s main advantages is its simplicity. You don’t need to be an expert in Traditional Chinese Medicine to use it. The device is intuitive and safe. You simply choose the area you need and enjoy deep, warming heat while the device does its work. This makes Eastern wisdom accessible to everyone.
Of course, theory is good, but what do real users say? The effectiveness of Wentong is confirmed by impressive results that people are eager to share. These testimonials show that the device works not only on the level of sensations, but also delivers measurable, concrete outcomes.
Many users report significant improvement in overall well-being: chronic pain in the legs and back disappears, blood circulation normalizes, and muscles that had long been tense finally relax. Women enthusiastically highlight the cosmetic effects: a more defined facial contour, smoother and younger-looking skin, as well as reduced waistline measurements.
Beyond these visible changes, the device also demonstrates impressive results on a deeper level. In just one 30–40 minute session, Wentong is capable of:
These results speak for themselves: Wentong is not just a tool for fighting symptoms, but a powerful instrument for systemic healing and improving quality of life, delivering real, measurable changes.
In a world where we are accustomed to treating symptoms, Wentong invites us to return to the wisdom of our ancestors and focus on the root cause. It does not promise instant miracles, but it provides you with a powerful tool for prevention and for maintaining harmony in the body. Start today and give your body the warmth it truly needs.
