Applied Channel Theory in Chinese Medicine demonstrates how a
deeper understanding of the interrelationship between organ and
channel theory can lead to more precise diagnoses and better
clinical results. This book is a collaboration between Wang Ju-Yi,
one of modern China's most respected scholars, teachers, and
practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, and his American
apprentice and practitioner, Jason Robertson. While most textbooks
focus either on the functions of the organs in basic physiology or
on the uses of the channels in treatment, this book shows the
essential relationships between the two. Theory and practice are
connected through a detailed discussion of a channel palpation
methodology developed by Dr. Wang, which leads to more precise and
effective point selection, location, and technique. Applied Channel
Theory in Chinese Medicine was developed during Mr. Robertson's
apprenticeship with Dr. Wang in Beijing, and is presented in a
unique and highly readable format that preserves the intimacy of
dialogue between apprentice and teacher, with questions and
answers, narratives, and case studies.
