Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is moxibustion too difficult to apply, too risky or too smoky? Discover the effective new moxa method from Japan that gets rapid results - safely. Moxibustion is ancient. Even more ancient than needling. In modern acupuncture, however, it is often considered too time-consuming or difficult to master. And yet the classics say: for chronic conditions, moxa has no equal. Coming to the rescue of time-poor, present-day acupuncturists is the Ontake Method from Japan. This innovative technique uses a piece of bamboo filled with burning moxa wool to roll, tap and press on the acupuncture meridians using a metronome programmed to each meridian's frequency. The rhythmic application of heat, frequency and pressure triggers rapid shifts in your patients' body condition and mood but this method generates only a little smoke. In this book, you will learn: Dr Manaka's meridian frequencies and how to apply them Branch treatments for symptom relief Root treatments for whole-body regulation The integration of Dr Tan's holographic models with Ontake for the rapid relief of pain in the neck, back and joints Moxa in Motion presents a step-by-step guide to clinical practice utilising the Ontake Method. Easily integrated into any style of acupuncture, Shiatsu or Tuina, the Ontake Method will boost your results and build your practice. Oran Kivity is a veteran acupuncturist from the UK, living in Asia. He has dedicated countless hours of clinical observation and study to integrate the knowledge of contemporary Japanese masters. Through writing and teaching, he has ignited interest in Ontake, a remarkable new moxa tool from Japan, developing these dynamic new techniques further and compiling them into this practical handbook of moxibustion.

Download or read book Japanese Acupuncture written by Edward Obaidey and published by . This book was released on 2023-01-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many students of Oriental Medicine begin their studies with a somewhat hazy relationship with the origins of the subject. It is often much later, when they begin to feel something is missing, that they at last begin to dig in and find the roots of this method that is at once therapy, art, and philosophy.In this book, you will be taken to the classical roots of this art to consider the foundational concepts and ideas afresh. Edward Obaidey is perhaps the perfect guide on this path dotted with what you may feel are familiar concepts, and language. He has an uncanny knack and light touch of opening up a perspective or idea long taken for granted and asking the reader to think anew.Edward provides just enough detail and information to kindle fresh interest and connections in the mind of the reader, without smothering this precious state of curiosity and creative spark. This is the hallmark of a good teacher, attested to by the many apprentices, students, readers and seminar attendees that Edward has enlightened and educated over the years.The essence that comes through in this text is an important reminder of the sense of perspective that, whilst so fundamental to the study and practice of Oriental Medicine, is often sadly lacking or lost in detail.
