Dave also has no problem posting that what he knows nothing about as far as TCM goes is just quackery. And then when he challanges me, "Hey Doc,
where's that proof'?" to post proof and I do he is no where to be found. He would rather change the subject and talk about rats...
Those that do not have the expertize to discuss or debate a subject I find very often will challange your post and then disappear, change the subject
or make light of the conversation. All it does is show there ignorance on a subject.

Do tell. |
I appreciate your post on TCM (had to look that up), and will acknowledge that although this jury is still out on whether acupuncture
is simply placebo effect, there may be limited benefits, primarily with regard to pain relief.
Now, returning to my original question...

NO ONE knows anything about astrology.
But I could be wrong.
I'd Love to hear from you on the subject.

I appreciate you taking the time to at least look into the subject. However I will disagree that the jury is out. I base my opinion on the AMA deemed
acupuncture needles as medcial devices and the American medical community accepting TCM as a viable treatment protocol in many areas not just pain.
I put TCM into four categories:
1. pain/stress management, injury prevention/rehabilatation and sports medicine (this is my specialty)
2. internal medicine ie coughs, colds, flu, allergies, trigeminal neuralgia, fibromyalgia, diabetes, cancer etc.
3. women and gynecological problems from pms to amennorhea to dismenorrhea to infertility etc.
4. what the western med calls psychological problems, we call this shen distubances. The shen is your spirit or your being so mood swings, depression,
insomnia etc.
I also base my opinion on the results I experienced after having four doctors tell me I needed surgery and spinal fusion for a neck injury and have
acupuncture "cure" that extremely painful condition in 3 weeks of treatments.
And once again I base my opinion on the results of practicing TCM for 12 years post graduation from receiving a Masters of Science Degree in
Traditional Oriental Medicine.
