Starting in the Fall
of 2015 I committed myself to regular blog posting. I had two primary
things in mind for this. First, I wanted to provide educational
information for my patients and the public. Second, I wanted to
provide educational material for practitioners of Traditional Chinese
Medicine, especially those interested in working more with sports
injuries and orthopedic conditions.
For the first goal,
I wanted to provide information that would help educate the public,
primarily related to my area of expertise which is sports injuries and
orthopedic conditions. And, I wanted to give some insight into how
acupuncture, manual therapy, herbal medicine and other things
practiced as part of Traditional Chinese Medicine can help prevent,
improve and manage these conditions.
For the second goal,
that of writing for professionals, my plan was to take material from
lectures I have given in Manhattan and San Diego with the Sports
Medicine Acupuncture Certification program run by AcuSport. This
material is on the sinew channels, secondary channels in the meridian
system described in Chinese medicine, and is derived from work I have
been doing first as a Structural Integration practitioner and then as
an Acupuncture Physician. The blog posts are the first step in a
process that will lead to a book. The steps for me include producing
lecture notes, writing blog posts, refining much of this information
for published articles, and then further refining this for a
published book.
Since these two
goals are somewhat hard to synchronize in a blog, I have made the
decision to have two separate blogs. One will be for patients and the
public. This will be found at https://blog.ideal-balance.net.
The second will be for professionals and will explore the sinew
channels in much more anatomical detail. This will be found at
https://www.sinewchannels.com/.
These two blogs will have a link at the top of each so that those interested in both can
move back and forth between them.
