Book Synopsis The Practice of Tui Na by : Robert Aspell
Download or read book The Practice of Tui Na written by Robert Aspell and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tui Na is one of the 'Four Pillars' of Chinese medicine (alongside Acupuncture, herbal medicine and Qi Gong) and is a form of bodywork that includes acupressure, massage techniques, assisted stretching, and joint mobilisations or adjustments that are all based on the key medical principles and diagnostics of the Classics of Chinese medicine. This book is an accessible clinical handbook of Tui Na principles and practice. Tui Na can be used as much more than a musculoskeletal therapy, but in order to use it to its full potential as a medical intervention, it is essential to understand its uses on the Sinew channel system as opposed to the other channel systems commonly used within acupuncture. Tui Na requires an understanding of the principles and pathways of the Sinew channels as a standalone system of the body, as well as its relationship to the other channel and organ systems, and this book provides an accessible introduction to these channels before moving onto Tui Na practice. There are Sections on Diagnosis and Assessment, Techniques and Treatments with hand and joint manipulation techniques covered in detail, along with instruction on developing a Tui Na prescription and protocols for the treatment of common conditions. This book can be used by beginners studying on a hands-on practical course in Tui Na, in addition to qualified Chinese medicine and Tui Na practitioners.

Book Synopsis Yin Tui Na Techniques for Treating Injuries of Parkinson's Disease Or Any Dissociated Injury by : Daom Dr Janice Hadlock
Download or read book Yin Tui Na Techniques for Treating Injuries of Parkinson's Disease Or Any Dissociated Injury written by Daom Dr Janice Hadlock and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tui Na is the ancient Chinese medical art of hands-on bodywork. Yin (light-touch) Tui Na is often the best approach to bringing about the full self-healing of injuries from which a person has dissociated: injuries that are old, or which were ignored at the time of the trauma, and which, subsequently, are causing incorrect flow of the electrical regulation (Channel Qi) of the body. Dr. Janice Hadlock, DAOM, founder of the non-profit Parkinson's Recovery Project, and professor at the Five Branches University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has found Yin Tui Na to be the fastest method for restoring awareness of and initiating healing in the injuries that can be causative for Parkinson's disease. She also uses Yin Tui Na in any patient whose old injuries have not fully healed or have not healed correctly.

Book Synopsis A Practical Guide to Acu-points by : Chris Jarmey
Download or read book A Practical Guide to Acu-points written by Chris Jarmey and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An understanding of acu-points is vital not only for acupuncturists but also for bodyworkers. This user-friendly manual contains current, comprehensive information for both groups, with special emphasis on how shiatsu and tuina therapists can best utilize point knowledge in their practice. Renowned experts Chris Jarmey and Ilaira Bouratinos use succinct text, a well-organized framework, and detailed color anatomical illustrations to clarify the complexities of acu-points. In keeping with normal practice, the authors give the precise anatomical location of a point and illustrate it with a dot, along with alternative locations where relevant. However, the book goes further by delineating the larger area where the point can be activated by pressure, gua sha, and other means. In addition, it explains the optimum physical position for treatment via acupuncture, acupressure, and other strategies, as treatment positions can vary according to the method of point stimulation. The book also documents the distribution of sensation resulting from point stimulation, and differentiates between pressure and needle application where appropriate. A Practical Guide to Acu-Points presents a wealth of carefully researched information equally valuable for professionals, students, and conscientious practitioners.
Download or read book Gua sha - E-Book written by Arya Nielsen and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2014-09-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Sometimes called coining, spooning or scraping, Gua sha is defined as instrument-assisted unidirectional press-stroking of a lubricated area of the body surface that intentionally creates ‘transitory therapeutic petechiae’ representing extravasation of blood in the subcutis.’ Gua sha has been used for centuries in Asia, in Asian immigrant communities and by acupuncturists and practitioners of traditional East Asian medicine worldwide. With the expansion of traditional East Asian medicine, Gua sha has been used over broad geographic areas and by millions of people. It is valuable in the treatment of pain and for functional problems with impaired movement, the prevention and treatment of acute infectious illness, upper respiratory and digestive problems, and many acute or chronic disorders. Research has demonstrated Gua sha radically increases surface microperfusion that stimulates immune and anti-inflammatory responses that persist for days after treatment. The second edition expands on the history of Gua sha and similar techniques used in early Western Medicine, detailing traditional theory, purpose and application and illuminated by science that focuses its relevance to modern clinical practice as well as scholarly inquiry. This book brings the technique alive for practitioners, with clear discussion of how to do it – including correct technique, appropriate application, individualization of treatment – and when to use it, with over 50 case examples, and superb color photographs and line drawings that demonstrate the technique. NEW TO THIS EDITION • New chapter on immediate and significant Tongue changes as a direct result of Gua sha • Research and biomechanisms • Literature review from Chinese language as well as English language medical journal database • New case studies • Over 30 color photographs
