Great Wall of China - Embrace the Chinese Dragon
The Great Wall of China was originally created in 221 BC by joining several local walls which were built by ducal states to defend their own territories. Construction continued up to the Ming dynasty (1368-1644), when the Great Wall became the world's largest military structure. The current measurement of this defensive wall, which stretches across northern China from east to west, is 7300 kilometers (4300 miles). Beijing without a doubt is the best place to experience the Great Wall.

New Natural Eye Care Book! Healing Your Eyes with Chinese Medicine: Acupuncture, Acupressure, & Chinese Herbs by Andy Rosenfarb, L.Ac.
(PRWEB) July 21, 2007 -- With over 13 million Americans suffering from macular degeneration, and more and 1 million Americans blind from eye disease, it's all too clear that prescribed treatments for are not effective. For the past ten years, Andy Rosenfarb has successfully used acupuncture and Chinese medicine to treat a wide range of eye conditions. Healing Your Eyes with Chinese Medicine is the culmination of his work -- a handbook for healing the kinds of conditions too often considered almost impossibly challenging or irreversible. His treatments include moxibustion techniques, tuina (massage), micro-current stimulation, Chinese herbs, and qigong exercises, along with "essential acupuncture" where essential oils are placed on acupuncture points.
Healing Your Eyes with Chinese Medicine is intended as a practical manual to help readers understand their eyes and vision more comprehensively, and to learn new, affordable ways for retaining the precious gift of sight.
Additionally, Andy Rosenfarb, recently announced that he will be conducting research in conjunction with Dr. Robert Ritch MD professor and chief of glaucoma services at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary. This study is being put together in order to research the effects of acupuncture's effect on lowering eye pressure in patients in the early stages of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Once the study is complete, the research will be presented at the World Congress for Eye Research in Beijing, China following the 2008 Olympics.
Praise for this title:
"As an optometrist for more than twenty-five years, I see Andy Rosenfarb as one of the emerging leaders in complementary and innovative approaches to vision care. His zest for integrating the ancient traditions of eye care with modern scientific knowledge of the body is a great contribution to the paradigm of twenty-first-century vision care."
--Marc Grossman, OD, LAc, from the foreword
"Andy Rosenfarb's inquiring mind and tenacity in refining his techniques come together in this incredible book to provide a service both to patients and the medial profession. A summary of current research and new clinical techniques, Healing Your Eyes with Chinese Medicine emphasizes the practical and the useful---what helps people of all ages see better. This is an important book."
--Greg Bantick, Senior lecturer, Australian College of Natural Medicine, Brisbane, Australia
