Chinese Medicine Traumatology

Book excerpt: In this book, I hope to guide my fellow colleagues into the intricacies of Chinese Medicine Traumatology and the use of Master Tung's Acupuncture in Acute Care, and share the principles and concepts that make it a highly useful in the clinical setting. I discuss here the principles and concepts that are used in the clinic and practical use to the Licensed Acupuncturist who is also studied in Chinese Herbal Medicine. The Chinese Martial Artist will also like my approach, as I give the background on the herbology of Dit Da (Traumatology), the composition of formulas, discuss many famous remedies and their constitution, teach to make your own custom Rx's, and use common patents for acute care, and in addition, use classical and Master Tung's Acupuncture. This has not been done before by any Tung practitioner. The book is extensively done in Pin Yin and Chinese characters to help practitioners new to the subject to be able to cross reference the herbals in other books. There are thousands of prescriptions for Traumatology and Orthopedics and after studying the subject for over 30 years and reading major books on the subject in Chinese, I distilled the essentials and approached the work in a practical straightforward manner to use clinically on a daily basis. It is hoped that the reader can use these principles and concepts here and achieve amazing results in his or her practice, as these are what I use in my own practice daily with amazing results!
