| book description |

This integrative text weaves western medical understanding into the framework of Chinese medicine, allowing practitioners to confidently make sense of how the energetics of pharmaceuticals impact their treatment plans. It delves into the most common illnesses for which medicines are prescribed, including diabetes, mood disorders, hormonal imbalances, and high blood pressure, and how patterns of imbalance manifest in the body through the lens of Chinese medicine. This is paired with guidance on how prescribed pharmaceuticals impact the underlying energetics of the physiological system. Rather than encourage a binary approach to treatment, Pharmaceutical Energetics instead develops a synergistic understanding between Chinese Medicine and Western medical thought. In doing so, Chinese medicine practitioners will be able to offer integrative treatment plans that take into consideration the effect of pharmaceuticals and how they might help or hinder treatment. Rich with case studies and clinical experience, this innovative resource can help patients reduce their medicine or manage the drug's side effects.
