Executive Summary about Herbal Therapy by Scott Meyers

Combining herbal therapy with acupuncture produces many benefits. Traditional Chinese healthcare is often a combination of acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and Qigong (breathing patterns/physical postures and motions of the body).

Acupuncture therapy can be both traditional and electrical, as well as ear (auricular) acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, and also acupressure. Cupping is used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat respiratory conditions, gastrointestinal disorders and certain types of pain. There is “dry” cupping, “wet” cupping and “air” cupping.

Acupressure is the ancient art of healing using fingers to press certain key points on the skin’s surface in order to stimulate the body’s natural ability to heal itself. When the body is re-adjusted it is better able to heal. Acupuncture can ease pain and other symptoms and can strengthen the immune system.

Chinese herbal therapy medicine is a system of treating a patient through an interconnection of mental, emotional and physical components of the individual being treated.

The Chinese people view the human body as an extension of the cosmos. To understand the connection between acupuncture and herbal therapy you must understand qi and yin and yang. Acupuncture and herbal therapy is used to restore balance.
