ABOUT THE BOOK
The Chinese model of the Five Elements has been used by the acupuncturists for thousands of years to balance ch'i, the vital force of the body. This book explains how to work with this ancient map of energy and apply it to diagnose physical illness, resolve emotional imbalances, and navigate the stages of life. Archetypal Acupuncture draws upon case histories, spiritual poetry, classic sources such as the I Ching, and examples from contemporary culture.
"One of the greatest books I've ever read. This book opened my eyes to my beliefs on life in a way that I never before could seem to assemble. I've met Gary Dolowich and consider him to be the type of physician whose path all doctors should follow."

"This book is of great aid in the best understanding of the human soul and this book us allows to establish a parallel one between the junguian psychology and the acupuncture. This book in the display although inside of each fundamental feeling there are different causes for the same and that such causes are related to the five movements or elements of the traditional chinese medicine (TCM). It is an indispensable reading to every psychology student, acupuncture and TCM. Besides all of the people that work with disturbances compartamentais and psychological they should read this book, besides veterinary doctors! It is a great book writing in way clear, simple and that it will help us to act better in the psychological field as therapists."

"This book opened my eyes to a new synthesis of two of my favorite topics: archetypal psychology, specifically Jungian-oriented psychology, and acupuncture, which I've enjoyed as a healing modality for the past twenty-five years.
Dr. Dolowich is a medical doctor who has been a practitioner of Chinese Five Element acupuncture and a student of archetypal psychology for many years. In this book, he shares many insights gained from using acupuncture to work with clients on medical and psychological issues.
I found the material fascinating, the presentation lucid, and the book itself beautiful and easy to read. From "Navigating the Stages of Life'" to Resolving Emotional Imbalances" Dolowich provides information grounded in actual patient experiences and enriched by an inquiring mind. This book will be valuable reading to students, healthcare professionals, and anyone interested in a new perspective on acupuncture and healing."
