An Intro To Acupuncture And TCM is the story of a man who was told he was going to die, by a specialist in Canada, but was brought back to life by integrative health care in China. An emergency neurology specialist told Martin Avery he was going to die but he got a second opinion. A doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine used acupuncture, fire cupping, moxibustion, herbs, finger needling, and nutrition so he could develop good "jing-chi-shen" and she predicted he would live a long time.
