True Wellness is a step-by-step guide to optimal health, blending the best of Western and Eastern medical traditions.
The authors have realized the conventional way of managing disease is unsustainable. They recognize that even as the high-tech accomplishments of Western medicine increase, the overall health of the nation continues to decline. In their own practices, however, they have discovered a path to optimal health, even in complicated Western health-care systems.>/p>
The secret is combining the strengths of both Western and Eastern medicine to achieve the unique health goals of each patient.
With this book you will:
- Discover the strengths and benefits of both Eastern and Western medicine
- Use journaling topics, questions, worksheets, checklists, and practical advice to prepare for and begin new, healthy behaviors
- Learn to create a multidisciplinary care team for a strong alliance between your Western health-care providers and Eastern practitioners
True Wellness encourages individual responsibility and prepares you to take the first step on your healing journey. By combining ancient wisdom, cutting-edge scientific discoveries, and practical advice, this book will lead you through a transformation to true well-being in body, mind, and spirit.

About the Author
Born and trained in Canada, I graduated from the University of Toronto School of Medicine in 1990. I completed my internship and residency at the same institution and qualified as a specialist in Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1995. My first position as an OB/Gyn was in Guam. There, I met and married my husband, Rob, who was serving in the Navy.
Rob served two tours of duty in San Diego where my interest in Oriental Medicine was ignited while collaborating with Dr. Darcy Yent, naturopath and acupuncturist. In 2009, with Dr. Yent's encouragement, I certified as a Medical Acupuncturist through the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and the Helms Medical Institute. I enjoyed incorporating acupuncture into my practice of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
I have since completed a Masters of Science in Oriental Medicine at the Institute of Clinical Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Honolulu. In 2015, I opened my clinic in Kailua, Oahu, Hawaii.
Aihan Kuhn, C.M.D., is a Chinese medical doctor trained in both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine. She is a graduate of the Hunan Medical University, Changsha China. In China, Dr. Kuhn practiced OB/GYN in Chinese hospitals (1983-1988), studied Tai Chi and Chi Kung (since 1978) and returns each year to advance her training in both Traditional Chinese Medicine and martial arts.
Dr. Kuhn is the director and owner of the Chinese Medicine for Health Clinic in Holliston Massachusetts. President and founder of the non-profit Tai Chi & Qigong Healing Institute which promotes natural energy healing and research for treating incurable diseases with Qigong.
Dr. Kuhn treats patients with various methods of TCM and Qigong at her Massachusetts clinic, lectures to both healthcare professionals and the general public, and offers Qigong and Tai Chi classes at her Holliston school.
Aihan Kuhn resides with her family in Sarasota, Florida.
