The Book of Oriental Medicine: A Complete Self-Treatment Guide
OF INTEREST Practitioners of Oriental medicine believe that when there is balance in the human body between Yin and Yang the person will exhibit good health however, when Yin and Yang are imbalanced, ill-health occurs. Health is an expression of balance, in Oriental Medicine disease is viewed as a physical expression of an imbalance within the body. Oriental Medicine practitioners look at the symptoms. along with other diagnostic methods, to identify patterns of disharmony. Each of the body organ systems must be in balance within itself and with the other organ systems. Whilst this may appear to be complex it is actually incredibly simple - balance in the human body. This is why a combination of diet, acupressure, massage, tapping and exercise are effective. Oriental Medicine determines your level of health through the examination of the normal and abnormal organ system functions in your body and, by treating the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms, brings the body back to the point of balance and wellbeing.
