Asia is the world’s most populous region and has the highest per capita number of older people in the world. It is also home to the healthy ageing traditions of Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine and the rich regional traditions of Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, and South Asia. This book addresses policies related to ageing, traditional Asian approaches to ageing, an integrated medical system approaches to ageing, ageing in place, and community empowerment. Features Presents information on The 100-Year Life. As a counterpoint to focussing on the frail elderly, Japan is promoting the ‘100-Year Life Society’, a societal model in which all citizens are dynamically engaged and productive throughout the lifespan to reach a healthy 100 years of age. Discusses a framework for optimization of Ageing in Place or staying at home as this is a desired option for most older people. Presents evidence for exercise and movement in healthy aging with guidelines in different states of ageing. Features information on how to improve mental wellbeing in cognitive decline, isolation and loneliness, poor nutrition, and reduced mobility. Creates an understanding of loss and bereavement through processes and the impact of loss. Provides information on developments in health technology to optimize efficiency, accuracy, and effectiveness of providers. Details health insurance options including coverage for traditional as well as modern medical services, provides models for other countries in the region. Lists coping skills or abilities to help older people to be more independent and in control of their lives. Features information on Asian herbs, spices and foods in healthy ageing across the lifepsan and specifically in addressing age-related health issues. "What is required is a new culture based on the science in which older people are expected to remain, or become increasingly active, physically, cognitively and emotionally maintaining or strengthening a strong sense of purpose. Europe is looking to Asia because this culture is more prevalent there than in Europe. The core theme is not one of ‘caring’ for a passive subset of the population but of promoting lifelong learning because knowledge is the elixir of life." - Professor Sir Muir Gray, Founding Director, The Optimal Ageing Programme & Professor in the Nuffield Department of Surgery, University of Oxford

A medicina tradicional tailandesa engloba diversas técnicas dentre elas a terapia manual desenvolvida ao longo dos anos no país e mais conhecida atualmente como massagem thai ou Nuad Thai.Estudar thai massagem nos faz viajar por uma terra e um período distante. Pesquisar a história acerca da origem e evolução, além das informações técnicas sobre a terapia manual tailandesa nos remete à Índia em seus tempos mais longínquos, nos leva a era de Buda e traz à mente, as pegadas trilhadas pelo primeiro grupo de monges budistas, denominados bhikkhus, além de apresentar mosteiros, guerras, reinos, santos e heróis.Se o mito, a religião, a ciência, o senso comum, a filosofia e a arte constituem os principais pilares do conhecimento humano, a terapia manual tailandesa se desenvolveu agregando a ela cada um destes tópicos. Do empirismo dos primeiros médicos, que colheram suas ervas aos pés das montanhas, aos dias atuais, a melodia que conduziu a prática, manteve sua harmonia entre notas de espiritualidade budista e busca pelo aperfeiçoamento do conhecimento teórico e da destreza manual, necessários ao bom terapeuta.Mais do que um "punhado" de alongamentos, pontos e manobras, a técnica thai, denominada em seu nome ancestral como Nuad Boran, constitui uma "escola do pensar", aonde o cuidado para com o próximo é apresentado como uma sutil e grata oportunidade de evolução. Certa vez, li uma definição que admirei muito sobre a massagem thai, descrevendo-a como "meditação em movimento". Meditar, do latim meditare, significa voltar-se para dentro. É um momento em que abandonamos por instantes as distrações externas e nos conectamos com nosso âmago, buscando neste contato, uma melhor compreensão sobre nossos pensamentos e sentimentos, descobrindo respostas para as dores e os conflitos da existência, trilhando pegadas em direção ao nosso dharma e à paz interior.

Fully illustrated guide to massage techniques for unblocking chi, releasing tight tendons and muscles, and alleviating back and joint pain • Explains the hammering massage technique of Tok Sen, which sends vibrational energy deep into the fascia and muscles • Details how to use the 10 Thai energy meridians known as Sen Sib and the 12 muscle-tendon meridians of Chinese acupuncture in massage • Explains Meridian Detox Therapy and Gua Sha, which clears blood stagnation, promotes metabolism, and can prevent and treat acute illness Good health depends on the free flow of life-force energy, chi, throughout the entire body. The accumulation of tensions in the muscles and tendons as well as the stagnation of negative energy can lead to blockages in the body’s energy channels, resulting in pain, low energy, or illness. In this full-color illustrated guide, Master Mantak Chia and William Wei detail massage techniques for unblocking chi, releasing tight tendons and muscles, and alleviating back and joint pain. The authors explore the 10 Thai energy meridians known as Sen Sib, the 12 muscle-tendon meridians of Chinese acupuncture, and the most commonly strained muscles and tendons of the spine, neck, and pelvis. They explain how to treat specific ailments, such as headache, stiff shoulder, or lumbar pain, with the traditional Thai massage technique known as Tok Sen, which uses a wooden hammer to send vibrational energy deep into the fascia and muscles along the Sen Sib meridians. This method is particularly effective for joint pain, because the vibrations can reach more deeply and accurately within the body’s structure than a massage therapist’s fingers. The authors also explain Meridian Detox Therapy, which includes cupping, skin massage, and Gua Sha--the scraping of different parts of the body to clear blood stagnation, promote metabolism, and treat acute illness. The final book in the Chi Nei Tsang series, Chi Nei Ching offers advanced massage techniques to work with the energy meridians for optimum health.

People throughout time and place, no matter their belief system, have sought to discover causes and cures for illness and disease. Among Westerners is a groundswell to augment biomedicine with holistic practices inherent in ethnomedicines of non-Western traditions. Yet missing are awareness and knowledge of the foundations and outgrowth of these alternative concepts. Erickson fills this gap by clearly explaining the basic organizing principles that underlie all medical systems, the full range of theories of disease causation, the geographical distribution of medical practices, and the historical trends that led to biomedical dominance. Her efficient, balanced approach highlights commonalities among the worlds vast and diverse medical systems, making ethnomedicine easier to internalize and to apply in clinical settings.
