Episode 80
Published 7 years, 5 months ago
Description
East Asian medicine has one foot in the skills and practice of medicine, and another in the traditions and influence of culture. How it is thought about and used in a place like Taiwan bears some similarity to how we practice in the West, and there are also significant differences.
Culture and habit are inseparable from the experiences people have in making sense of world and how they approach illness and health.
Listen in to this conversation on a Western practitioner’s view of doing Chinese medicine inside of the traditional culture of Taiwan.
