Description
Nora Franglen’s straightforward, accessible guide introduces this ancient Chinese system of medicine. She briefly covers its history and explores the philosophy at the back of it, explaining how it can benefit the reader in my opinion by addressing specific health needs and general well-being. Five element acupuncture treats the whole person by accessing the natural energy channels every of us possess and correcting the imbalances between our five elements to restore both physical and mental wellbeing. With case studies of patients all through, the guide provides immediate insight into how an acupuncturist diagnoses and treats patients, taking a look at the importance of every of the five elements in turn, and how they relate to one another. This deceptively simple guide will help somebody interested in learning about the advantages and traditions of five element acupuncture, five element theory or Chinese medicine in general. It is going to be of particular interest to students in addition to a great resource for practitioners to recommend to patients.
