EPISODE 163 of GROWING OLDER LIVING YOUNGER focuses on cupping, acupuncture and other East Asian therapies. We discuss the history and safety of cupping therapy, a traditional Chinese medicine practice, and its integration with modern research. We also explore various East Asian medical techniques and practices, including acupuncture, moxibustion, and Chinese herbal medicine. Emphasizing the importance of tailoring treatments to an individual's constitution, health, and health goals, we discuss the role of mindset in the effectiveness of acupuncture and wellness practices, and also explore the concept of chi in East Asian medicine and its origins, evolution, and misconceptions. Today’s featured expert is Dr. Tom Ingegno, DACM, LAC, the best-selling author of The Cupping Book: Unlocking the Secrets of Ancient Healing.

He was the director of acupuncture for a chain of wellness centers in the mid-Atlantic. Dr. Tom has been featured in both consumer and professional media, spreading his message of health using modern research, traditional practices, and humor to make complex theories and treatments understandable.
