About Qiological Podcast
Acupuncture and East Asian medicine was not developed in a laboratory. It does not advance through double-blind controlled studies, nor does it respond well to petri dish experimentation. Our medicine did not come from the statistical regression of randomized cohorts, but from the observation and treatment of individuals in their particular environment. It grows out of an embodied sense of understanding how life moves, unfolds, develops and declines. Medicine comes from continuous, thoughtful practice of what we do in clinic, and how we approach that work. The practice of medicine is more — much more — than simply treating illness. It is more than acquiring skills and techniques. And it is more than memorizing the experiences of others. It takes a certain kind of eye, an inquiring mind and relentlessly inquisitive heart. Qiological is an opportunity to deepen our practice with conversations that go deep into acupuncture, herbal medicine, cultivation practices, and the practice of having a practice. It’s an opportunity to sit in the company of others with similar interests, but perhaps very different minds. Through these dialogues perhaps we can better understand our craft.

Published 6 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] It alerts white blood cells to change their behavior and migrate. It alerts the body, the vascular system. You get vasoconstriction, partly triggered by this, followed by vasodilation, followed by migration of fibroblasts and so on. There's a whole series of things that happen. Anytime a needle is inserted in the body, the same way anytime you get a small cut. So what Manica had a good understanding of, there are these native mechanisms in the body that are involved in how the body heals itself when it gets injured. And he was looking to take advantage of those with iron pumping cords. Basically, what you're doing is you're... you're amplifying the electrical signal and you're directing it. […]
