QAJ1.9 Practicalities of Practice • Jonathan Bluestein & Stephen Jackowicz

Qiological Podcast

Through the boundaries of time, language and culture East Asian medicine has found its way into the West. But there is a cultural component that we often don’t consider. And that can make a difference in the effectiveness of our clinical work.

In this conversation Jonathan Bluestein and Stephen Jackowicz discuss the unique potential in our medicine, and the challenges of practice in the modern Western world.
