Eric Grey intern shifts at Pettygrove Classical Chinese Medicine clinic
Just a quick plug before I leave for a leadership retreat. Starting July 3, I will be providing acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine services at Pettygrove clinic in Portland, OR. The address is 2232 NW Pettygrove., Portland, OR 97210. We provide top rate care, including the services of the city’s best Chinese herbal pharmacy. You can call 503-552-1552 to set an appointment and to find out more about prices. If you need to reach me personally, you can call the same number and ask for extension 5639.
My shifts are as follows:
Under supervising physician Dr. Qin (renown acupuncture specialist) during the first part of the summer on Monday from 12-4. That shift will be supervised by Dr. Arnaud Versluys, internationally known Shang Han Lun style herbalist, during the latter part of the summer at the same time. Under supervising physician Dr. Kou on the cancer-care specialty shift I will be working Monday from 4-8pm. Finally, on Thursdays from 12-4pm I will be honored to work with David Berkshire, a five element acupuncture specialist. I would be happy to see you on any of these shifts. Please contact me by phone or Continue Reading…

Fiddling with things : Deepest Health upgrade
A few quick notes:
If you read the site by feedreader or email subscription, the video on the last post might not have come through. It is worth your time to visit the site to watch the video. I promise
For everyone - you may notice some slight changes on the site over the next couple of weeks. I’m experimenting with different ad servers, placement of certain elements, as well as updating some of my pages (about the author, resources, etc). Please let me know if something looks terrible. :)
Thanks,
Eric

Creativity, Classical Chinese Medicine and our right to be wrong
Image via Wikipedia
The impact of this video should be experienced by everyone. How does it relate to Classical Chinese Medicine? How does it relate to this blog? Where do I begin?
All over the planet, there are people who think like I do. There are people who find a sense of hope in Classical Chinese Medicine, its way of treating human beings and its way of opening our minds to a perception of reality alternate to the one most of us are schooled within. I’m not talking about anything you can dismiss rapidly, so please, let rest your assumptions. For 20 years, I’ve been frustrated by the oppressive, soul killing, pervasive worldview that so dominates everything one sees through the mass media and through public education. This worldview says that the left brain is where it’s at, that logic (narrowly defined as it is in most University philosophy departments) should always rule, that there are no ghost or fairies or spirits, that something isn’t real or useful if it can’t be tested placebo-controlled and double blind and that intuition is a chemical reaction and nothing more. I’ve been frustrated by this worldview, but Continue Reading…

Experiments in Chinese herbalism : on the dangers of Yin Qiao-itis
What follows is a guest post by my friend and comrade in Shang Han Lun love, G. Michael Reynolds over at the Lifegiving Sword. I think it demonstrates a couple of things.
That experimenting with herbs can - obviously - bring mixed results. :)
That there’s real peril in standardized systems of medicine. I believe, in general, they tend to make lazy practitioners. I mean, seriously, do you see Yin Qiao in that tongue?
The power of Classical formula principles.
For any members of the general public currently reading, please don’t become too alarmed by this story. In all systems of medicine, there are ok practitioners, good practitioners, great practitioners and a few folks who shouldn’t but somehow DO make it into the practitioner pool. The difference between Chinese and allopathic medicine in this regard is that Chinese medicine is highly unlikely to kill people even when practiced badly, while allopathic medicine is somewhat less blessed.
This is one reason I am so passionate about the style of Chinese medicine that I am learning. In my experience the kinds of mistreatment problems described below are far less likely to happen within Classical styles. Enjoy this fun read.

Pregnancy in Chinese medical texts
I’m away at a Qigong retreat this weekend (we take one a term in the Classical Chinese Medicine program at NCNM), but didn’t want to leave you folks without content. :) Two fellow bloggers were kind enough to offer posts - one from G. Michael Reynolds over at the Life Giving Sword and the other from Yael Ernst at Chinese Medicine Notes. I hope you will enjoy them both.
First up, Yael with her post about Pregnancy in Chinese medical texts. I don’t talk much about women’s health here, but not because I have no interest in it. I think this will provide a good introduction for folks who are wondering what Chinese medicine has to say about the process of pregnancy and its effects on the female body.
——————–
In the post The Foundation of Pregnancy we looked at the physical aspect of pregnancy in women. In this post I would like to present what Sun Si Miao (http://www.taijichinesemedicine.com/sunsimiao.htm) wrote regarding the pregnancy itself. But, before I talk about Sun Si Miao, I would like to present Ye Heng Yin, and his description of conception. Ye Heng Yin was a gynecology expert Continue Reading…
