Dear Members of Chinese Herbal Group,

 

First of all I woul like to introduce me: I´m a brazilian student of

TCM,I live in Belo Horizonte, the 3td biggest city in Brazil, now I´m

in the 6o.period of the course (All course is composed of 10 periods

or 5 years and 1 semester in China, where we are going to receive our

Diploma because TCM is not recognized for the Brasil Government ). My

University is affiliated to BUCM_Beijing University. Our course is

almost 30% of western subjects of Medicine and 70% of Chinese

Subjects. I´m starting to develop my Monography for the end of the

course trying to introduce in Public Health of

Government, I think is the best way to become known

here, because everyone think is only acupuncture.

Chinese Herbal here is almost impossible to buy, sometimes only

patented medicines, formulas prepared as " Tang " are very very

expensive.

Last year I went to N.Y. and there I could see that Chinese herbal is

sold in groceries,not only in pharmacies. Maybe it will be a solution

for us in the future , sell Chinese herbals as a alimentary

complement…

Well friends, I would like to ask if someone could help me, telling

me or indicating me sites about how the introduction of TCM in

United States was, atual model of working in the Country or things

like that, in order to try to show the Brazil Government that it

works.

Since now, I thank you to let me be a member of this group and for

you attention.

All the best for everybody.

Hello,

 

I cannot tell you how to set up the national acceptance of acupuncture, but only

suggest that maybe by making a connection to traditional healing would help.

 

" Wind in the Blood " by Hernan Garcia. Talks about the similarity between Mayan

medicine and Chinese medicine.

 

Also, there is a story in Acupuncture Today that features some Americans working

in Guatamala, maybe their experience there might help you.

Good luck,

Rozz
