According to family legend, he abandoned his career as a scholar and began working as a physician. In doing so, he founded a medical lineage that continues to the present day. This book describes the development, flourishing, and decline of this lineage and its many branches, as well as that of the other medical lineages and families with which it merged over time to form the “current of Menghe learning” (\u003cem\u003eMenghe xuepai\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis current and its offshoots produced some of the most influential physicians in the Chinese medical tradition during the 19th and 20th centuries. Menghe physicians, their disciples and students treated emperors, imperial mandarins, Nationalist Party generals, leading figures in the Communist Party, affluent businessmen, and influential artists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn late imperial China, Menghe medicine was a self-conscious attempt to unite diverse strands of medical learning into one integrated tradition centered on ancient principles of practice. In Republican Shanghai, Menghe physicians and their students were at the forefront of medical modernization, establishing schools, professional associations, and journals that became models for others to follow. During the 1950s and 1960s, the heirs of Menghe medicine were key players in creating the institutional framework for contemporary Chinese medicine. Their students are now practicing all over the world, shaping Chinese medicine in Los Angeles, New York, Oxford, Mallorca, and Berlin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe history of the Menghe current is relevant to anyone interested in the development of Chinese medicine in late imperial and modern China. This book traces Chinese medical history along the currents created by generations of physicians linked to each other by a shared heritage of learning, by descent and kinship, by sentiments of native place as well as nationalist fervor, by personal rivalries and economic competition, by the struggle for the survival of tradition and glorious visions of a new global medicine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the level of both theory and practice, this history marks a departure from the focus on texts and ideas that has dominated Western engagement with Chinese medicine to date. Its goal is to locate medicine within the concrete lives of physicians and their patients, restoring an agency to their actions that easily gets lost in our search for the forces or structures that shape historical process. To this end, the author interweaves social history and medical case studies, ethnography and biography to narrate a story of Chinese medicine that is very different from any that has been told before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eREVIEWS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"A superb study that speaks both to medical historians and anthropologists, and to the increasingly globalized communities of contemporary practitioners of Chinese medicine.

I have attempted to explain where it comes from, the philosophies behind it and the growing body of scientific research that illuminates it. I have drawn from my fifty-year experience of working in the field of Chinese medicine, my decades of qigong practice and my study of \u003cem\u003eyangsheng\u003c\/em\u003e - the 2,500 year old Nourishment of Life tradition. For those interested in learning more, my book \u003cem\u003eLive Well Live Long: Teachings from the Chinese Nourishment of Life Tradition\u003c\/em\u003e can be read as a companion to this one. Because trying to learn qigong from illustrations and written instructions is challenging, I have included links throughout this book to dozens of demonstration videos. I hope this will encourage readers to go ahead and try it out. Regular and committed practice will slowly reveal a treasure that keeps on giving - year after year and decade after decade, a treasure which can truly change our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cultivation and integration of body, breath and mind has been practised in China since the beginning of recorded history nearly two and a half thousand years ago. For some it was a way of improving health and lengthening lifespan. Martial artists practised to improve their fighting skills. Daoists sought transformation and a merging with the Dao, Buddhists with \u003cem\u003eSunyata\u003c\/em\u003e (‘emptiness’) and Confucians with the Way of Heaven. Teachers of the art of \u003cem\u003eyangsheng\u003c\/em\u003e encouraged their fellow literati to rouse themselves from lazy and indulgent lifestyles, while for traditional medicine doctors it was a way of preventing disease and supporting treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome of its practitioners favoured quietness, stillness and deep presence. They practised breath control, visualisation, mantra recitation, sexual cultivation and internal alchemy. Others were drawn to the more physical rewards of a strong, aligned and balanced body, and especially to ‘internal’ martial arts such as \u003cem\u003etaijiquan\u003c\/em\u003e (tai chi) - the training of soft but powerful movement. Yet all of these practitioners, in one way or another, were working within the same tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven this variety of intentions it is no surprise that a host of different names was used throughout its history. Ever since the 1950s, however, the name qigong (or sometimes the ‘internal arts’) has largely supplanted most of them and serves as an umbrella term for many of these varied approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQigong needs no special equipment or special clothes, is free, and can be practised anywhere - from a mountain top to a bedroom. Its aim is better health, longer life, connection to something greater than ourselves and effective and compassionate action. It can enhance every aspect of our lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose of us committed to its practice know what a rich gift it is. It is my hope that this book will go some way to explaining why slow, mindful movement is so good for us.

The M-Test uses the meridian system of acupuncture to analyze the movements of multiple joints and muscles in a holistic way.

Flexibility and ease of movement in relation to the meridians are assessed to identify the areas and muscles that need treatment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased on the M-Test results, the synergistic action of the joints and muscles involved in the movements can be facilitated with acupuncture, massage, or stretching.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the acupuncturist, the M-Test provides another powerful assessment tool for the treatment of pain and compromised movement.
