Traditional Chinese healing, using the principles of Qi, Ying/Yang and heat and cold, have been in continuous use for over 5000 years. This is an introduction to the ancient Chinese system of healing, with instructions for buying, preparing and using Chinese herbs. Also including the use of Western herbs, the book covers their use as preventative treatments, as health supplements, and for common problems from headaches to cancer.
