| Too often, conventional medicine fails
to detect disorders and sickness. Oriental diagnosis, an ancient
holistic system of knowledge, can detect physical problems before they
arise. Beginning with an explanation of the principles of Oriental
diagnosis--touching, "seeing," and pressure--author Michio Kushi helps
you understand this natural, non-invasive approach. The fundamental
concepts of yin and yang are thoroughly explored, as is the art of
seeing. Your Body
Never Lies provides an in-depth exploration of the components of
seeing. This includes a description of deviations in facial features,
skin, and extremities; irregularities in posture, movement, and mental
states; and more. You will learn to recognize such physical variations
and interpret these characteristics. Within this unique intuitive
system is the power to detect the body's warning signs and avert
serious illnesses such as cancer and heart disease. Western
medical practice often focuses on a specific body part, symptom, or
ailment, ignoring the totality and interconnectedness of the human
body. Your Body Never Lies is a complete guide to Oriental diagnosis, a
revolutionary--yet centuries-old--way of preventing disease and
preserving health and biological harmony. |
