Chinese Medicine for Health working with Harvard Medical School

New England School of Tai Chi at Chinese Medicine for Health in Holliston, Massachusetts has been selected as a participant in the Tai Chi Osteopenic Women Study for Harvard Medical School Study Program. The Harvard Medical Study will monitor and collect data on the efficacy of Tai Chi in reducing rates of bone loss.

"We are honored that Harvard Medical School has selected the New England School of Tai Chi to validate the benefits of Tai Chi," said Dr. Aihan Kuhn, Director of Chinese Medicine for Health.

"A growing body of carefully conducted research is building a compelling case for Tai Chi as an adjunct to standard medical treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of many conditions commonly associated with age," says Peter M. Wayne, assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and director of the Tai Chi and Mind-Body Research Program at Harvard Medical School's Osher Research Center.

An adjunct therapy is one that's used together with primary medical treatments, either to address a disease itself or its primary symptoms, or, more generally, to improve a patient's functioning and quality of life.

Dr. Kuhn's New Book to be Released in Spring 2009

A new book will be coming from Dr. Aihan Kuhn called "Simple Chinese Medicine."  The book will be published in May 2009 by YMAA Publications.

Dr. Kuhn's first book "Natural Healing with QiGong" received widespread praise.  The book is available at most bookstores and Amazon.com.  You can purchase an autographed copy by calling our office at 508.429.3895.

In her new book, Dr. Kuhn takes the reader through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), including its history and modern applications; and various therapeutic modalities such as acupuncture, Chinese massage, auricular therapy, Chinese exercise, Chinese herbal medicine and Taoist healing.

Dr. Kuhn has used these therapeutic methods to help many people, including  people other doctors could not help. It covers the difference between Western medicine and Chinese medicine, and also explains the differences between Chinese exercise and western exercise in great detail.

An important section of the book describes self-care: self-healing, cancer prevention, and using food to help with healing and weight control. This book is a valuable source for learning about the Chinese healing system, not only for healthcare professionals, but for holistic therapists as well. It will also make this unique healing system accessible to general population, and teach them how to apply some of the healing methods to their own care.
