In this book Dr. Twicken gives the reader a glimpse of the original balance method of acupuncture based on Yi Jing (I Ching) theory as developed by Dr. Chen Chao. Dr. Chen's thinking forms the basis for understanding numerous other acupuncture systems such as Dr. Tan's balance method, and modern interpretations of Tung's acupuncture. The methods presented here by Dr. Twicken are discussed both in terms of theory as well as actual practice, thus making this book appropriate for acupuncturists of all levels of experience. I personally use Dr. Chen's methods frequently in the clinic and can attest to their incredible efficacy.
I stayed up until 2am reading one night. I'm a total Acunerd so, it fed the hungry questions I'd had since studying the balance method and Master Tung styles of acupuncture. What a treat this book is, Thank you David Twicken!!!
Gives a very good explanation of the theory behind the balance method. You'll still have to take one of Dr. Tan's seminars or learn applications from one of his students, though, for the hands-on part.
This is a book about Dr Chen's Balance Method, which inspired Dr Tan's more commonly known "Balance Method". Those are basicly the same methods, same origin, but different teachings, numerations, etc. Because of Dr Tan's integrate Dr Chen's "Balance Method".A must have must read in every acupuncturist biblio. It has enlightened in a very synthetic way my past studies on Yi Jing and TCM. I am now able to understand the reasons behind the Nei Jing's quotes, and therefore I'm feeling free from stupid memorization. This is a pure, ancient, and above all LOGICAL acupuncture.The books is FULL of simple, understandable, step by step, drawings.PS : for the FuXi vs Wen Baguas, you'll just have to accept things as they are. Brainlogic may have some limits, the code is still to crack...
This book came very fast and is very useful for OM's and layman who want to understand the foundations of the Bagua and Chinese medicine. Also has many useful applications of the Bagua.
I Ching Acupuncture only augments the other books written by the various authors on Balance Method. Well written and easily explained for understanding.
