Download or read book Korean Healing written by Yunkyu Chung and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern medicine cannot effectively deal with allergies and autoimmune diseases. Although the symptoms can be temporarily controlled by drugs, the immune function, which is the root cause of the disease, is not an area that can be easily controlled by drugs. In Eight-Constitution medicine, by activating the body's immune function through a constitution-specific regimen and acupuncture method, various autoimmune diseases such as atopy, rheumatism, lupus, myasthenia gravis, and muscular diseases are successfully cured. The reason why Eight-Constitution medicine can cure these diseases is that Eight-constitution medicine is a natural healing method that the human body heals on its own. As an American certified public accountant(CPA), my specialty is accounting. I have worked as an accounting expert in my entire social life, so my medical knowledge is very limited. I learned Eight-Constitution medicine 5 years ago. At that time, the total class hours are 24 hours(3 hours a day for 8 days). And immediately, with the skill of a clumsy beginner, I used laser acupuncture to successfully heal at once my severe chest pain that had been seriously ache for 5 months. What does my treatment experience mean? Eight-Constitution Medicine is simple and clear, meaning that anyone who mechanically applies it will benefit. A total of 60 acupuncture points is used: 30 below the knee and 30 below the elbow(about 18 acupuncture points are sufficient for your own treatment). And if you perform acupuncture in a predetermined order to the acupuncture points for each constitution, the immunity will allow the body to heal on its own. Press a few buttons and the healing program will run in a body as if in a computer. This book shows the Creator's secret coding to activate the immunity. It presents a way to solve the limitations of modern medicine. With this book, even ordinary people can do what only the world-class oriental medicine doctors can do, and can go beyond the limits of modern medicine! If you are suffering from health problems, find a miracle through this book. It also helps to cope with COVID-19 and its sequelae with Eight-Constitution medicine. If you follow this book, anyone can accurately diagnose 8 constitutions. How wonderful it would be if any ordinary people can diagnose 8 constitutions and apply it to your diet. There are many cases in which eight-constitution regimen alone has led to miraculous healing, some of them have been introduced in this book. There are countless ways to classify physical constitutions in the world. Isn't Eight-Constitution medicine one of those common ways to classify constitutions? Among the various constitutional classification methods, only Eight-Constitution Medicine has acupuncture to verify the diagnosis result of constitutions! If the diagnosis is wrong in Eight-Constitution medicine, side effects occur in performing acupuncture. Eight-Constitution medicine acupuncture is the safest in the world because it does not have any side effects as long as the diagnosis of constitutions is accurate and acupuncture formula for each constitution is correctly applied.
Download or read book The Compleat Acupuncturist written by Peter Eckman and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly original and authoritative book, Peter Eckman takes pulse diagnosis as a common thread that links and integrates the various disciplines of Oriental medicine, and shows that they are in fact related by a common origin several thousand years ago. The text describes the clinical details used in a variety of acupuncture styles, synthesizing them into a coherent whole, and illustrating the usefulness of this model with an extensive presentation of case histories. A fundamental premise of the book is that treatment should be based not only on the current condition of the patient, but even more importantly on their inherent constitution. The description of constitutional pulse diagnosis therefore forms Part 1 of the text, the description of conditional pulse diagnosis forms Part 2 and Part 3 provides more than 30 case histories with pulse analysis, diagnosis and treatment (with outcomes), so that the book will be of utmost practical benefit. Much of the book consists of new theoretical schemata to organize traditional Oriental medical concepts into a coherent whole - groundbreaking work that will provide fresh insights and deeper understanding to all practitioners of Chinese medicine, especially acupuncturists. It presents a wealth of material that is not commonly available in Indian (Ayurveda), Korean or Chinese medicine, as well as other traditions of Oriental medicine, including the only thorough presentation of Korean Constitutional Acupuncture in English, based on the author's personal study under its originator.

Download or read book Mari Nawi written by Keith Smith and published by Rosenberg Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reveals the significant role Aboriginal men and women played in Australia's early maritime history. Its focus is the Indigenous people who sailed on English ships through Port Jackson to destinations throughout the world in the period 1790-1850. Theirs was a canoe culture and they called the foreign ships mari nawi, meaning 'large canoes.' With remarkable resilience, they became guides, go-betweens, boatmen, sailors, sealers, steersmen, whalers, pilots, and trackers - valued for their skills and knowledge. Some, such as Musquito, Bulldog, and Dual, were exiled as Aboriginal 'convicts.' These seafarers faced cruel seas, winds, and currents. Some survived shipwrecks or were marooned for months without supplies on isolated islands. They sailed the Australian coast to sealing and whaling grounds in Bass Strait, to the icy sub-Antarctic and New Zealand, and to international destinations like Timor, Mauritius, Bengal, Britain, Canada, Hawaii, Tahiti, San Francisco, and Rio de Janeiro. Mari Nawi: Aboriginal Odysseys is illustrated with rarely seen portraits, landscapes, and ship images by English, French, and Russian artists. The book is based on previously unpublished sources, such as ship's musters, logs, journals, dispatches, and shipping records.

Download or read book Korean Medicine written by Seoul Selection and published by Seoul Selection . This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practitioners of Korean traditional medicine say the ultimate cause of disease is not so much the invasion of external elements but rather malfunctions in inherent bodily function. Since disease is considered to result from the weakening of vital energy, the emphasis is placed on boosting the body’s ability to defend against disease. Illness may be attributed to emotional states like joy or sorrow or to other internal causes such as overwork and fluctuations in the function of internal organs. Even diseases that appear to have external causes are ultimately seen as the products of internal factors. If one’s ability to fend off sickness is strong enough, then one will not get sick even if pathogens do enter the body. Thus, treatment focuses mainly on bolstering the body’s vital energy.
