Korean Acupuncture Master to Give Talk on Feb. 13
LECTURE
Friday, February 13 Beckman Hall 104 Schmid College of Science presents Dr. Nam Soo Kim: Mu-Guk-Bo-Yang-Tm: For Your Healthy Life 4 p.m. Acupuncture and moxibustion have been used as effective treatments for people for many centuries in Korea and other Asian countries. This treatment can be used anywhere, anytime and for anybody, without any side effects. Moxibustion involves the use of the herb mugwort (Tm), which is dried and aged and then burned directly on acu-points on the skin. This tiny burn releases antibodies to the acu-point, which then follow the bloodstream to the affected area. Moxibustion is cost-effective, as mugwort and incense sticks are the only necessary materials. Dr. Nam Soo Kim was born in 1915 and learned about acupuncture and moxibustion from his father. He opened a clinic in 1943 and has been practicing for 60 years. He currently serves on the board of the Acupuncture Association of Korea and is working to change the laws to allow licensed persons to practice acupuncture and moxibustion. He is a visiting professor at the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. He is also the CEO of Tm Sa Rang, the Traditional Acupuncture Training Administration, in Korea and the U.S. He has published more than a dozen books about the theory and practice of acupuncture and moxibustion and is considered one of the foremost practicioners of the art. Admission is free. Information: 714-289-2043 or kyang@chapman.edu. |
