Dieh Dah an explaination

[Guest guest]

I don't know what happened when i sent this to the

list, but let me try again;

 

 

Tieh Tah - PinYin Dieh Dah- is literally " fall and

hit " medicine - or as Sifu Chen called it " medicine

for someone who has been thrown down with force and

hit with a fist or rod " . Tieh Tah is the medicine

that

arises from the study of Martial Arts.

This is where i began in my studies of TCM, with the

practice of Traditional Chinese Martial Arts. I was

fascinated as a kid watching as Sifu would tend to the

inevitable small injuries by pressing a point or

applying needles,Mei Wah Tsom, moxa, cupping or one of

his many Tieh Tah Jow

Sifu often pointed out that " the true Martial Artist

has the ability to heal or kill. The skills for one

can be applied to either. " " A Martial Artist who can

not heal his own and other's injuries is a man

standing on only one leg, he is out of balance. "

 

Hope that is what you are looking for.
