Philippe Sionneau

4.3/5 ( ratings)

Typically, students of Chinese medicine first study the individual materia medica and then study formulas and prescriptions . However, there is an important intermediary step which is often overlooked. This is called dui yao in Chinese, the art of combining medicinals. Based on thousands of years of recorded clinical experience, certain combinations of Chinese medicinals work better than others. Although theoretically there may be several combinations, which might achieve a certain therapeutic effect, in actual fact, one combination in particular gets definite, dependable clinical results. This book describes over 100 of the best known, most useful two medicinal combinations in Chinese medicine. By studying these two medicinal combinations, students and practitioners alike will: *understand the construction of standard, time-tested formulas all the more easily and thoroughly *be able to modify standard formulas to fit individual needs *be able to draft completely new formulas out of empirically verified building blocks Whether you are a beginning student or a professional practitioner of Chinese medicine, this book is sure to help you reach a new level of understanding and expertise.
