One day in pharmacology class, Dr. Lina Rubiano was surprised to learn that the positive effects of medications to treat pain and illnesses are much shorter than the consequences that come with time. Over there he asked himself if there was a different solution that did not affect vital organs. Then, due to things in life, he suffered a herniated disc for which it was predicted that he would not be able to run marathons or exercise again, in addition to having to take corticosteroids to relieve the pain. In this situation he came across Chinese medicine.
“Those two moments in my life led me to this medicine that has more than 5,000 years of history. For the hernia, they suggested acupuncture and it really helped me, so I decided to study at the Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where I completed my master’s degree in Acupuncture, Moxibustion and Tuina,” says Rubiano.
Thus began the rise of the doctor, a graduate of the Universidad de la Sabana, from relative obscurity in this knowledge to her position as one of the country’s leading authorities on these ancient Chinese healing practices.
Thanks to her studies, Dr. Rubiano has written Revelations to heal with Chinese Medicine, An easy and intuitive book to put into practice various knowledge ranging from the elements of nature and their interaction with the body, to alarm symptoms and solutions to chronic conditions.
Gather Chinese medicine information into a book
Dr. Lina Rubiano explains that this is not a book for doctors, but for all people who are interested in knowing those terms of Chinese medicine that are essential for its application.
“This book is a self-care manual so that the greatest number of diseases disappear and we do not put our health in a doctor’s diagnosis – which can be wrong because we are human – but rather in being aware that health is fine for us. my day-to-day actions,” explains the author.
Revelations to heal with Chinese Medicine It has 408 pages dedicated to self-care explained in such a way that you can put them into practice once you finish each of its chapters. “Here I explain what each organ can do and what actions it can take to heal your body. For example, understanding that repeated otitis is a symptom of kidney weakness,” he comments.
At the same time, the book has a list of symptoms and the solutions that can be given to chronic pain. It also has a series of exercises that you can include in your routine. “You can still apply Western medicine in acute cases such as a serious accident or an acute illness and need to be treated immediately. But the idea of this book is to help you modify your behaviors and raise awareness that every action you take can have a positive or negative impact,” says Dr. Lina Rubiano.
What Chinese medicine entails
“The idea of the book is to give readers enough tools to apply this knowledge to their lives. Through simple and well-explained language I can share what I would have liked to learn much earlier in my life,” says Rubiano.
This means breaking the stigmas that exist against this ancient medicine. “In the West we are used to confusing Chinese medicine with homeopathic medicine, bioenergetics, holistic medicine and many others that do not have the same evolution time,” comments the doctor.
Added to this is the understanding that pills and pills that take immediate effect are not good for a full life. “We must understand that Chinese medicine is a complex medical system that has its own system of diagnosis and treatment, such as herbology where plants are used to feed and provide direct therapy to the body or Qigong, which are slow and slow movements of the body that are integrated into harmonious breathing,” explains the expert.
You don’t have to believe for it to work
Unlike other medicines, Rubiano explains in his book that this has a process of healing the body in which the spiritual is not implicit for it to work. “It is believed that there must be an internal healing process and that something must arise from the depths of the heart and mind, but no. Chinese medicine works whether you believe in it or not,” says the doctor.
In this way, the expert explains through her book that the five elements of nature are related to vital organs such as: the kidney, lungs, liver, heart and spleen-pancreas.
“This way of looking at medicine can help you see the bigger picture. Maybe you have only been seeing one side of the story of your illness and this is the opportunity to explore it from different angles,” he explains.
The origin of energy from Chinese medicine
Dr. Rubiano clarifies that the term energy as we know it and as it is used in other alternative medicines has been poorly translated from the ancient texts of Chinese medicine.
“Chinese medicine explains to us that it is actually about the constant circulation of blood through our body, in addition to other liquids. This is known as Qì, a concept that in itself has no translation but that makes us understand that at the end of the day it is about moving this to heal,” says Rubiano.
In this way, muscle pain, spasms or chronic pain are stagnant blood that must be moved for that area of the body to heal. “Here there are specific actions in the body that can affect the well-being of the person.”
Emotions and illnesses
The book of Revelations to heal with Chinese Medicine It also has a special section in which Rubiano explains that the origin of physical illnesses begins with an emotion that gradually affects the functioning of an organ and that causes physical pain.
“Western medicine is only now beginning to understand this event. However, this has been written for a long time in Chinese medicine, because emotions are not housed in the mind or brain, but in all internal organs. Then we see that fear is controlled by the kidney; anger or frustration about the liver; sadness and shock for the heart; anxiety and worry, for the pancreas; and nostalgia and melancholy through the lungs,” concludes Rubiano.
