What Is Chinese Shamanistic Philosophy?
Simply put, "Chinese Shamanistic Philosophy" is based on a long-forgotten secret system of healing. Like all eastern holistic paradigms, dis-ease is addressed at its root (spiritual) cause rather than simply treating its outward manifestations (masking or covering up symptoms).
Brought to the West by international scholar of ancient healing techniques and licensed acupuncturist Joel Seigneur, Chinese Shamanistic Philosophy focuses on revealing the past causes, present conditions, and future trends of health. Receive powerful clues about the origins of health issues, and learn how to lessen or circumvent them holistically.
