Summer is still with us and it's been a hot one! With people getting out in the sun, taking breaks and general heat Summer is one of the healthiest times of year. That is except for stomach problems...

It was my patient' first time for acupuncture and she was really nervous. "Will it hurt?" she asked. I was kind of surprised since she was Chinese. I thought most Chinese had been getting acupuncture, cupping (baguan, and scraping (guasha) since they were born but that's just not so anymore.

I'e got some mail recently asking about the new Karate Kid movie. Some people want to know, "Is kung-fu in China just like the movie?"
Uh, maybe.

Last week a tour group of Americans came to Beijing. The Beijing Chinese Medicine University asked me to help guide a small group of Americans around the university where they were to watch various performances and attend some lectures on Chinese medicine.
One of the stops on the tour was at the gym to see a qi-gong performance by the school's wushu team. Not knowing the difference between wushu and kung-fu the Americans were a bit confused because qi-gong didn't look like any kung-fu they'd ever seen. This lead to a group of guys from Rochester, NY and San Diego asking me about what kung-fu I do here in Beijing and how I found my teachers. Ultimately the question was: "What are the most important things to look for in a teacher?"
