The natural sequel to MOKA I, this work offers all curious readers — health professionals or otherwise — the keys to ancient Chinese medicine (ACM). Born from a cultural ground rooted in peasant pragmatism, this Other medicine from Elsewhere addresses, with simple tools — needles and mugwort — the three components of the human being, that social animal shaped by his own history.
Its trinitarian organisation is expressed in a binary language: excess and deficiency are revealed by the palpation of a few major Chinese points. Through the intelligence and sensitivity of the skin — a natural extension of the brain — the body speaks a universal language: relief signals deficiency, pain signals excess.
Beyond a holistic view of the individual, the reader discovers a broad-spectrum medical discipline where empiricism meets scientific rigour, and shamanism meets quantum medicine. The fruit of a long clinical experience, this book builds a bridge between the most authentic tradition and progress, between past and future.
