| Review | "Chinese Medicine has never been so popular and relevant to the modern way of life and yet the sysem itself has evolved over 3,000 years. More and more people are turning to its Taoist-influenced vision of healing through balancing the bodily harmonics. It is essential reading for all those who seek a natural means to total health." "This authoritatively written and beautifully illustrated guide to the healing world of Chinese Medicine covers the basic principles behind Chinese Medicine; the meridian system and how it works; the causes of disharmony; treatments including acupuncture, herbal remedies, nutrition, qigong and meditation; and Chinese Medicine and the future of healthcare."--Jacket. |
