Dr. Tran on results

“There are three things that I am sure about that I would
like to explain to you in a very simple way: First of all, the
further I get into my studies of acupuncture the more I realize
how little I know, that I know nothing; Two: among my patients
there are lots of failures, I fail to cure a lot of people. But
there is one thing I am sure about: that if I don’t succeed in
curing my patients, it is not the fault of acupuncture: I haven’t
reached the height of my prowess, I haven’t reached the peak of
my possibilities and achievements. There is acupuncture and there
are acupuncturists. Thirdly, I notice that often when I fail to
cure someone, it’s because I haven’t properly grasped the technique;
that is, I use a technique, often, that I haven’t really understood.
That’s why I believe, that when you puncture a point in acupuncture,
you have to understand the meaning of that action, you have to
understand the meaning of what we do. We have to understand the
deeper meaning of acupuncture. Because if you puncture a point,
and you don’t understand why you’re puncturing it, if you’re just
doing it because the Chinese say you that have to do it, or other
people say you have to do it, if it’s just a ‘reflex’ point, without
any proper interpretation or real understanding, according to
my experience, the results are not good. “
