Index
Mark D. Seem, Ph.D., is a former president of the National Council of Acupuncture Schools and Colleges and founder of the Tri-State College of Acupuncture in New York City. The author of Acupuncture Energetics and Bodymind Energetics, he lectures at schools and conferences throughout the United States and maintains a private practice in New York City.
“This book speaks out for a style of acupuncture informed by touch
and by an awareness of the power of language. I applaud Mark Seem’s
emphasis on reframing or imaging the client’s problems in a way
that is client-centered and empowering.”
*Iona Marsaa Teeguarden, M.A., M.F.C.C., author of The Acupuncture
Way of Health*
“Mark Seem’s vision elevates acupuncture to a sophisticated form of
somatic education in which meaning, rather than meridian points, is
the pathway toward health and well-being.”
*Thomas Hanna, editor of Somatics magazine*
