Important site updates & what about the Shen?

Image
Theres not been much posted on the site in the last few months for one very simple reason the site is being completely rewritten, reworked and reskinned. I thought it would be done by now, but it isnt, and for that I apologize. I expect that within another 30-45 days, you will see not only a new site, but a whole new vision being played out on Deepest Health. Those of you who have been with me for a while will know that this has been coming for a while and I appreciate your patience. We all do. Whats coming? A beautiful new look that will be easier to navigate, with all new content mixed with archived content being re-released for the benefit of people who havent been here since the beginning. A store containing books, multi-media education and of course Chinese Medicine Quarterly. All of what lives in the store has one purpose to excite people about the depth of Chinese medicine, especially Chinese herbalism, through deep & engaging information. An all new bonus for newsletter ...

Fortunately the hotel is a short walk from the clinic in Bondi Beach, so I booked the patient in there and had everything ready. I met the patient. A tall, athletic African American.

He had muscle aches and pains and also wanted a very strong massage and his calf muscles squeezed out. Calf musc...

Health in Africa

A friend of mine is on an excellent adventure in Africa. He's a gifted student, a very likeable chap and he has studied Chinese medicine and is on the path to western medicine too. He's going around the place helping out with a mine over there. He's in the most privileged of positions: communicating with elders and bringing information to communities. His blog is very frank, well written, funny and gets you right up close to the action, Enjoy! http://albosinafrica.blogspot.com/
