Chen-Chiu: The Original Acupuncture

Description

The author has produced a well-known translation of the Ling-Shu-Jing. (2003) - By Dr. Claus Schnorrenberger. 413 pages

Combining the ancient wisdom with his personal experiences as a practitioner of Western and Eastern medicines, Dr Schnorrenberger presents an exciting new model for the practicing acupuncturist.

'Chen-Chiu': the Original Acupuncture is based on an historic Chinese acupuncture text that remains vital to this day: the Ling-Shu-Jing.

The author has produced a well-known translation of this work, and here in this book he applies his personal medical experience - as a lecture, and moreover, as an orthodox western physician and Chinese acupuncturist and herbalist - to the principles of the text.

The result is a new view of the prevailing western perceptions of Chinese medicines. The author calls into question such concepts as Chi, the meridians, and even acupuncture itself, in order to correct erroneous translations still in use by many to this day.

Chen-Chiu provides an epistemological reflection on what Chinese medicine and acupuncture really mean, and adds new insight into Western and Eastern views of healing.

This book is well-balanced and much needed, appropriate not only as a reference for students and practitioners of Chinese medicine, but also as a learning aid for patients, health-care workers, and administrators.
