If you're a practitioner of any acupuncture style (or indeed of any therapy of either body or mind) I defy you to read this book and not grow therapeutically from doing so. John's patient-stories (beautifully told and brimming with authenticity) offer us something truly special. -- Merlin Young, acu-moxa practitioner/author/activist I found these stories intriguing. They were helpful to me as a patient because they illustrated how acupuncture works. Not so much by an explanation of mechanisms, but through revealing how possibilities for health and transformation can emerge from attentive and committed collaboration between practitioner and patient. -- Kathy Doncaster, patient of John Hamwee Every patient has a story. The story can take us to new perspectives and deeper truths beyond the presenting symptoms. John Hamwee is an inspiring writer. He intrigues, and often surprises us by revealing how to understand the real causes of our patients' conditions and in turn master our intuition in the treatment room. -- Angela Hicks, Co-founder College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, Reading, author of Principles of Chinese Medicine, Singing Dragon Author InformationJohn Hamwee has been a practicing acupuncturist for over 20 years and is a teacher of acupuncture and Zero Balancing.
