Tibetan Medicine - Tom Dummer
Code : B13
Name : Tibetan Medicine - Tom Dummer
Price : $13.90
Tom Dummer, the author of �Tibetan Medicine�, makes a unique contribution towards bridging the gap between Tibetan and other natural therapeutics-and towards communicating this medicine of ancient origin to the Western world.

Beginning with an explanation of the basic elements of Tibetan medicine he describes the relevance of certain Buddhist concepts; the Tibetan analysis of bodily functions; concepts of health and susceptibility to disease and methods of diagnosis and treatment.

In the second part of the book he analyses the similarities between Tibetan and Western holistic medicine and shows how they may be practiced in conjunction with each other. He considers different, specific areas of medicine, including the use of occidental herbal medicine and homoeopathy within a context of Tibetan medicine; the similarities between contemporary osteopathy and Tibetan massage, based on theories of spinal centres and reflexes; and the use of Tibetan medical philosophy and Buddhadharma as a basic for counseling therapy.
