Mourning the passing of a great acupuncture leader and pioneer in the US: Dr. Miriam Lee

Dr. Miriam  Lee (Lee Chuan Djin), the first licensed acupuncturist in California, passed away on June 24, 2009.  Dr.Lee's endeavors beginning more than thirty years ago contributed to the legalization of acupuncture in California. This had great impact and influence on acupuncture development and advancing throughout the US.  Dr. Lee, along with her students Susan Johnson, Esther Su, and others, had been giving every effort to promote Tung's acupuncture in the US and Europe.   Because of their contributions, Tung's acupuncture and traditional acupuncture are widely practiced in the western world.  Today, we are very sorry for the loss of a good teacher and helpful friend.  Her contributions in acupuncture will be always in our memory.

Newly Published Chinese Books

About Dr. Young's  newly published TCM books (in Chinese).  

An outstanding, major work on the history of acupuncture and moxibustion—Impressions of three texts written by my mentor to whom I am deeply indebted, Master Young Wei-chieh
By Master Tung’s Extraordinary Points second generation rushi disciple,
Dr. Zuo Changbo

Editor’s comments: this essay is printed with the text neither to improve its sales, nor sing the praises of Mr. Yang. It is out of a sincere hope that reading it will provide insight into the rare, deep feelings of the relationship between master and disciple that exist even today. And, that readers can see how a student can learn by inferring numerous answers from one morsel of knowledge imparted by his teacher. From this I realized, this holds true not only for Changbo and his study of Mr. Dong’s Extra Points, but students of all acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine traditions following his example can develop into outstanding doctors and scholars. 

ILLUSTRATED TUNG’S ACUPUNCTURE POINTS

Use the map to locate the Tung’s Acupuncture point and make the correct puncture. Regular price US$60.  To purchase, send the check, payable to Dr. Wei-Chieh Young, to  19161 Colima Road, Rowland Hts, CA 91748.
