The Body's ''Acupuncture'' Energetics

About the Book

This book explains to the reader the three basic energies of acupuncture, how they behave in the body and how we can utilize this knowledge into improving our health status. It also helps the lay person understand how the body functions and also relate our body functions to nature and the natural laws governing our existence. I tried to merge medical knowledge with acupuncture knowledge and present it in such a way that it is understood by all. It also teaches the importance of balancing the Mind, Body and Soul. This book also explains the importance of balancing the heating system with the cooling system of the body. It teaches all the different harmful enfluences and how to protect ourselves from them. It also attempts to recreate the Commandments of Health. Read about the "Triad" and also how to take care of acute problems through my "energetic massage". This book should help everybody understand the importance of healthy habits for good health, proper healing, and happiness.
