About the Book
Healing In China is a record of Irv Givot’s two journeys(1993,96) to study Chi Gong in China. It is at once a description of a most extraordinary clinical workshop, training, and teacher; a collection of stories of remarkable healings, an essay into the nature of subtle energy; and a snapshot of life in China for a group of Americans in the mid 1990’s. The central theme however, is the authors’ unfolding discovery of Chi Gong with its mysterious power to cure disease, and his evolving ability to integrate it both into his treatment of patients and his own quest for health.
