Mementos of My Experiences in China
While Studying Acupuncture

I took time from my studies to talk with a neurologist and tell her of the dangers of dental mercury. I brought 3 packets of Huggins videos and literature, and gave them to doctors in China.

Professor Liu was the gallant Chinese professional who hosted Clare Chenault of the Flying Tigers in his home in the 1940s. Later on during the Cultural Revolution he was sent to the countryside to work on a farm. He and I spoke in private one day, a very emotional time for both of us. |

Mountain Taoists |
|
|
One weekend I hiked up a nearby mountain that had tourist facilities. I was joined by a man who introduced himself and invited me to his home. His home was the temple, and he actually was the temple physician. He registered me as a student of the temple and I arranged to spend nine days with him treating patients. A Bejing news crew came and took pictures of the display of his herbal medicines.
I treated patients with him. He taught me many things. Herb walks. Ancient rock inscriptions in mountain view site. Special freeform blindfold Tai Chi, Qi Gong treatment. Wu Dan sword dance. |
