This book explains in full how the emotional, mental and physical
elements of Chinese Medicine in illness are an extremely effective
therapy in dealing with cases where the alterations of the shen are
both obvious and subtle. This book focusses on the psycho-spiritual
aspects of patients' conditions and is purposely constructed to
facilitate practitioners' formulations of diagnosis and treatment.
It reflects throughout on the patient-practitioner relationship,
resources and various characteristics of acupuncture, and inherent
problems and qualities. "Shen: Psycho-emotional aspects of Chinese
medicine is more than an acupuncture book or a clinical text on how
to treat psychological diseases. The authors, by connecting
personal clinical experience and through study of classical texts,
have created a model that shows how to develop Chinese medicine in
the West. This is a very important achievement." From the Foreword
by Volker Scheid Practitioner of Chinese medicine and Director of
the European Institute of Oriental Medicine (Munich/London). Offers
clinical guidelines for treating people with psycho-emotional
symptoms. Includes researched material and clinical applications
concerning emotions and movement. Describes the causes and
progression of psycho-emotional symptoms in terms of etiological
and pathological mechanisms, specific symptoms, and classical
syndromes. Features in-depth description of 29 clinical case
studies with discussion on points, ongoing treatment, and
problematic situations.
