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.

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.

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.
