Traditional Chinese Medicine (Chapter 13 of DVD)

A complete system unto itself. Concerned with balance of Chi or Life Force. Under stress, chi is out of balance – deficiency of chi in one area, blockage of chi in another. Chinese medical practitioners diagnose by checking pulse: 3 different places, 2 different depths on either side. Each pulse is a different organ in the body. Patient sticks out tongue for doctor to check. Treatments: medical herbs, massage, diet, and acupuncture. Good research data show it helps with sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, and pain.

There is no …
There is no objective evidence that accupunture works. Many studies have found its effect is equal to a placebo. Do a search on any evidence-based medicine database; pubmed, cochrane library, ACP Journal etc., and you will find the same thing.
