Moxibustion is a relatively unknown but important treatment method
of traditional Chinese medicine. One extremity of a little stick of
dried mugwort leaves (artemisia vulgaris) is lit and held just
above specific points (acupuncture points) on the body. Moxibustion
is the therapy of choice to treat 'cold' problems: lack of energy,
problems of the joints, digestive weakness, gynaecological
disorders, etc. This chart explains clearly how to use moxibustion,
presents all the significant points on each meridian (location,
indications) and a series of health problems with the point
combinations for their treatment. It contains an impressive
quantity and quality of information on four pages.
A wonderfully illustrated picture book that explains acupunture to
children. The Chinese practice of acupunture is explained through a
simple, informative story about a family's visit to the acupunture
clinic.

While most people today vaguely realize that the body is a working
machine that generates energy, most of us don't understand the way
energy flows, where it goes and what it does. Margaret Rogers'
research with her clients and under medical supervision has
validated ancient Oriental techniques and merged them with exciting
non-invasive methods using crystals to unblock energy flow in our
Five Bodies and to tone and stimulate the Chi energies. Integrating
these techniques with hypnotherapy, reflexology and aromatherapy,
she has broken through old mindsets to release
cellular-neuro-muscular memories that have created illness of the
mind, body and spirit. Whether you are a healer or a patient, you
need this stimulating and easy-to-follow guide to recovery.

A writing based on the author_s two years of experimentation with

1932. A pamphlet containing 14 inspiring and helpful lessons to
give the reader the key to their treasure room, to unlock their
door to Magic Power. The author purports that proper breathing is

Anemia, Rheumatism and Constipation, which are responsible for at
least 90 percent of the ills of the human body.
The information contained in this book, although familiar to many
practitioners and students, is presented in a concise logistical
format. This unique method of utilizing acupuncture treatment
algorithms for differential diagnosis of disease states is
logically systematic and useful both as an acupuncture treatment
text and reference guide. The compilation of material is extracted
from Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Foreign Language Press,
Beijing. The disease states are listed alphabetically and are
located at the top of the page. They are then subcategorized and
differentiated according to their main manifestations. The
acupuncture treatment points that are specific to the disease state
are found next, followed by the tongue and pulse diagnosis. Located
at the bottom of the page are acupuncture treatment points that are
common to the various subdivisions of the disease states. It is
often helpful to start at the bottom of the page, identifying
common acupuncture treatment points to each subdivision (if there
are any). This unique presentation of the material appears visually
clear, uniform and easier to decipher and commit to memory. The
appendix contains the disease states and acupuncture treatment
points listed in a quick reference chart. This document will prove
to be a valuable tool to both practitioner and student.
In mid twentieth century China, during the time of the Cultural
Revolution, there was a great need for medical treatment and a
severe shortage of medical practitioners, especially in the
countryside. To remedy this situation, workers and farmers were
trained in the prevention and treatment of disease. These people
were known as Barefoot Doctors. The American Barefoot Doctor's
Manual was created in the spirit of these original barefoot
doctors. Strategies for using Chinese Patent Medicines, LM
Homeopathics, and Flower Essences are found throughout the manual.
Also included in this work is an integrated form of movement
therapy which opens and increases the energetics through all 14
meridians. For a limited time I will provide 1/2 hour session of
Chinese Energetic Method with each purchase.
This is a full-color laminated poster. The chakras are the
energetic centres of the subtle body. They can be unbalanced by a
number of internal and external factors. Problems will then be felt
in the corresponding aspects of life. This chart clearly describes
a series of seven specific yoga exercises (asanas) which, if
practiced regularly, will help re-establishing a harmonious energy
circulation within each chakra, between the chakras and between the
subtle body and the outside world. People whose chakras are in this
way activated and balanced will function optimally at all levels:
material (e.g. money) to spiritual via the levels of physical
health, love, communication.
1883. Considered a great medicine man, Lighthall offers this work
to the many who are unable to obtain the important and essential
medical knowledge that is necessary for the perpetuation of health,
longevity, wealth, and happiness. It is to teach the humble and
poor, the farmer and mechanic, the merchant and his clerk, that
God, in his infinite wisdom has created and grown an herb with
medicinal properties to prove a balm to every ailment that the
human organization is heir to. He also acquaints the reader with
the knowledge of the medical action of a great many herbs, how to
cure them and administer them when appropriate.

There is no universal panacea, no single and only avenue to
complete health, though the past century has heard many a treatment
called the universal and only avenue by various fanatical
individuals or classes. "Fast," "Take no breakfast," "Eat slowly,"
"Breathe deeply," "Do strengthening exercises," "Practice
suggestion and develop your mind forces," all these commandments we
know well. But not one of them is likely to be by itself the means
of complete health for all.
