These treatments have been practiced and refined in Asia for over 2,500 years, but are only recently being 'discovered' in the U.S. and Europe. Adventures in Chinese Medicine unlocks the secrets of common treatments and the history behind them; such as Acupuncture, Cupping, Moxabustion and Herbal Medicine (including stories from other acupuncturists and patients). Unique concepts such as tongue and pulse diagnosis are deciphered and clarified. Ideas that are fundamental to Chinese Medicine - Yin and Yang, Qi, meridians, the five elements - are all discussed in simple terms, you can relate to. Adventures in Chinese Medicine also provides helpful information about what to expect on your first appointment.

This unique book is designed for individuals who want to learn more about the practices and philosophy of Chinese Medicine, for practitioners who want to educate their patients, for those thinking about training as an acupuncturist, and for patients who already love their treatments and want to understand more about how they work.
