A Brief Introduction

[Guest guest]

Dear Members:

 

I would like to take a moment to introduce myself to the members of

this group. My name is Phillip Reynes and I live and practice

in Denver Colorado (I am also licenced in New

Mexico).

 

My Masters in TCM was the fifth master in my long educational

career. I also hold masters degrees in mathematics, geology,

military science, and physics. I first became interested in TCM in

1985 when I went to China and lived at Wu Dong Shan, a Taoist

monastery. I stayed there twice, the first time for 11 months and

the second time for 7 months. The medicine I saw there (both herbal

and acupuncture) was strikingly different from what I later was

taught in school, which as you all know is based on the communist

interpretation of the medicine.

 

I attended the International Institute of in Santa

Fe new Mexico. After graduation I moved to Denver and have been in

practice here and teaching here for six years. I also am currently

teaching at the Colorado School of Traditional . I

teach Basic Theory and TCM Internal Medicine at this school. I have

also taught at IICM and the now defunct CSAOM (Colorado School of

Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine).

 

I read Chinese, and a number of other languages, and am not a native

English speaker. I grew up in the Pyrenees between Spain and France.

 

I specialize in the treatment of chronic Progressive M.S., Primary

Liver Cancer, Esophageal Cancer, Asthma, but also see a fair variety

of other complaints. I am interested in a verity of medical issues

especial TCM education.

 

I am most definitely not a mixer in the sense that I do not use non

TCM modalities and I could be considered a bulk herb snob.

 

I look forward to talking to all of you on line.

Salut Philippe,

I visited Qing Cheng Shan (another holy taoist mountain) and got a

little glimpse of Daoist medicine. Unfortunately I didn't stay. Still

I am very interested in the daoist aspect of CM. The teacher up there

used to be at wu dang shan before.

I'd be happy to have some daoist viewpoints in these discussions.

Great to have you here.
