CORONA VIRUS AND CHINESE MEDICINE
Dear All,
I hesitated for quite some while before posting this as I felt uncomfortable offering prevention and treatment in a time of panic and I did not want to cash in based on peoples fears. On the other hand if you feel that you are run down or more susceptible to catching colds/flu, have asthma or other respiratory problems, a weakened immune system or indeed the first symptoms of a viral infection, Chinese Medicine simply has an enormous amount to offer.
On the 2 February 2020 the Chinese Government announced a Major Change in Strategy: All patients with confirmed Infections are to Use Chinese Medicine (see linked article) (of course !!!! in conjunction !!!!, if needed, to western medical interventions). Chinese Medicine is used for prevention, as well as for mild to moderate cases (which prevents mild and moderate case advancing to a critical level) and serious cases.
In our curent lockdown situation in France and other countries Chinese Herbal Medicine is especially suitable as it is possible to conduct the consultations over the phone/skype.
So I felt duty bound to let you know that the Chinese Government recommends Chinese Herbal Medicine as treatment (again, of course in conjunction, if needed, to suitable western medical interventions) as well as prevention for the Corona virus and according to Liu Qingquan, director of the Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and one of China’s leading TCM (Traditional Chinese medicine) experts dispatched to Wuhan, TCM has been positively implemented in approximately 90% of COVID-19 patients.
The most effective treatment approaches have been widely documented and shared (see also linked article) so please contact me should you want to strengthen your immune system in case you feel susceptible or indeed if you have developed some symptoms. The herbs will be sent out by post and should reach you, normally within 1-3 days.
For best results, as always in Chinese Medicine, treatment is tailor-made to each individual case and adjusted as symptoms change.
The other modalities of Chinese Medicine are of course used as well and include Qi-Gong (chinese therapeutic exercises such as the one to 'strengthen the Lungs' I have posted earlier (see also on my page) as well as Diet, Chinese medical massage “Tuina” and its Japanese version “Shiatsu” and Acupuncture (however none of those last 3 are possible at the moment) .
As my contribution I am offering consultations at half price or less if needed. (please simply ask)
PS: Due to delays with the post at the moment it might be a good idea for susceptible people to have 2 or 3 Herbal Formulations already in your house on standby (they last for 2 years and can also be used for the common cold and dry or wet cough that often follows it as long as the symptoms fits the patterns of the herbal formulations. I will explain all this to you in detail) so you can use them at the earliest symptoms. Please contact me should you want that.
Wishing you good health,
Markus
