Hello everyone!

I am forwarding Patty's email from the Toyohari acupuncture list, and I feel

confident that there are acupuncturists on our list who can help her which

will also in turn help our profession.

 

In short, Patty is looking for research studies that can help WM doctors to

know when to refer on to an acupuncturist. Please read her email below and

reply to [sakedrops]

 

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi guys,

As some of you already know, I'm working with some docs and doc

wannabees in the Florida Hospital Residency program. They are designing

a complementary medicine curriculum and want to have enough knowledge to

know which patients to refer to an acupuncturist and when. Being

steeped in the skepticism of Western Medicine they are looking for

research studies proving the scope and efficacy of acupuncture. Any

suggestions? I already have some stuff from NADA and the NIH Consensus

Statement. Can anyone think of anything else I can let them read? Any

web links would be good, too.

 

 

Thanks for your help,

Patty Seykora, Florida Branch

Dear Patty & TCM Forum

 

This might prove useful. The WHO performed their

own review and analysis of controlled clinical

trials in acupuncture (published up to 1998/1999

throughout both China and the West) and have

published their own list of diseases, symptoms or

conditions for which acupuncture has been

proved - through controlled trials - to be an

effective treatment:-

This report makes it clear that this is not

intended to be an exhaustive list but only a list

of therapies that have hitherto been

investigated.

 

All the best
