2015 Clinical observation at Maeda Sensei's clinic Maeda Sensei kindly allowed me to come again for clinical
observation this spring. The way Maeda Sensei accepted me was truly amazing, while some
masters keep their secrets to themselves, Maeda Sensei went out of his way in
trying to make me understand and feel what he is doing. He answered every
question I had on the spot, and even arranged one of his students, a very kind
English speaker, to help translate the more complex questions. I thank you very much Maeda Sensei for your kind efforts to teach me, and thank your staff for their kind support
Writing this in the car heading towards the Tokyo School for this term's
last seminar. There are people who fall ill easily from the ki they pick up from
other people. Often, you can catch or diagnose the root cause of this illness
the person has unbeknownst to himself, and there are ways to interrupt or
resolve the chain reaction of ki at times like this. Despite the various
approaches to such treatments, methods for beginners to resolve such cases are
often too difficult to execute. This difficulty has been overcome by devising a
specific process which works on any kind of relationship, including
parent-child, and husband-wife relationships, as well as in situations of
serious illness, or where ki is being taken, or obstructed in its comings and
goings. Connections between people are not simply those made by the tying of red
thread! Maeda Sensei developed a clinical model based on acupuncture and cosmic energy theories which was amazing to see at work The identification of "Evil Qi" is an essential part of his work. Maeda Sensei can sense it through moving his thumb on his index finger while the other hand is used as the "input sensor" and is placed in various locations around the patient body without any touch. "When there's a smooth feeling the Qi is ok, when there's a sticky feeling it's Evil Qi" he told me, and added "it can be learned in two days! Most of the tools he uses are also developed by him. The first noticeable
tool when you see him work is the board he uses, on which the 5 elements and
their existence in each other elements are represented, along with circles
representing various meridians and more. Through this board he taps into the
various energy fields surrounding the patient and takes out the "evil
qi" that was there. It sounds like something more close to Reiki and
healing than acupuncture but in his work he is treating the condition through
balancing the meridian system using the different levels of the meridians ? Main,
TMM or 8 Extra for example. Maeda Sensei was very kind and was also happy to share his knowledge
and explain his way of work for which I'm very grateful. Thank you Maeda Sensei, Tetsuo Maeda The director of NAVIA, Acupuncture and Moxibustion Clinic Representative of Research Group for Diagnosis of Ki and Acupuncture Treatment Outline This case study is that of a patient who was diagnosed with prostate cancer and subsequently given 6 months life expectancy following an operation the patient had 6 years ago. Despite receiving hormone treatments, the patient’s PSA (Prostatic specific antigen) level continued to gradually rise. In seeking a second opinion by changing a hospital, but the patient was then advised to book into a hospice facility with diagnosis of Stage IV cancer and 6 months life expectancy. In the event, the patient decided to visit doctors at the National Medical University Hospital. There,the patient was told the cancer metastasized to the lymph near the liver in the abdomen area,and was therefore inoperable. The patient was recommended to take a course of chemotherapy. In three and half months before the patient was admitted to hospital for chemotherapy, the patient devoted to receiving Oriental Medicinal style treatment. According to Oriental Medicine diagnosis, the cancer had metastasized to the liver and gallbladder. The main area of diagnosis included the patient’s abdomen and back. Both the Gallbladder Meridian and the Liver Meridian were subsequently treated for excessive Ki(Chi, Qui) by way of sedating the Meridians. This was achieved using a needleless treatment tool known as Teishin( literally means a pressure tool, which affords many of the benefits of acupuncture but without penetration of the skin). At the first hospital, the patient’s PSA level was 27. it was then seen to rise up to 45. However,the result of medical recheck at National Medical University Hospital just prior to the start of the recommended course of chemotherapy, it declined to 3.5. As a result, the patient did not pursue the chemotherapy and was able to leave the hospital the following day. The patient continues with the Oriental Medicine treatment , and at present, it has shown further improvement with a decline in the patient’s PSA level to.0.06. In the Oriental Medicinal tradition of understanding and diagnosis, cancer is a target symptom: it seem as a gathering of JaKi(literally “Evil life energy”, excessive electromagnetic energy that imbalances Ki or disturbs health). This results in <気毒、血毒、水毒>, Ki poison, blood poison,and body fluid poison. By perceiving the patient’s condition in this way, we did our best to treat the patient's cancer, and Sawada style treatment was found to be particularly useful. Notification of the end of treatment is recognition when energetic reaction in Mubun Style and Meridian Lines were ceased, and also clinical energetic reaction from the once diseased areas of the body were cleared.

Body Tetsuo Maeda Research
Institute of Oriental Medicine and Medical Qigong ( Theories of
Oriental Medicine have been accepted, however, many difficulties still remain
in their practical application. One of the
difficulties is attributed to the fact that specialists in the field have their
own views and methods in diagnosing and treating the human body, especially in
the realm of medicine of invisible Qi. When
approaching this elusive difficulty from a point of view in medical Qigong, it
is most important that we direct our attention to the magnetic properties in
the human body. It has been shown that the human body has distinctive magnetic
properties in organs and torso, as well as the head, arms and legs, which are
projected out of the torso. By observing
magnetic properties variations, one can differentiate abnormalities in Yin and
Yang, Five Phases (Five Elements) and Channels (Meridians), which further helps
to determine appropriate treatment selection (Channels and Collaterals, Channel
Sinews, Extra Channels, or Mubun Style). In addition,
the organization and hierarchy of Qi in the human body has become identifiable
from the observations of magnetic properties. The author has noted that magnetic properties in the human body can be configured into a format with fully coordinated and balanced arrangement, by using theories of Ying/Yang and Five Phases and Pentagon with Golden Ratio, and he further created a compass, which he has called “ Qigong master navigator ”. The compass, which was developed with a program to analyze various parameters, enables detection of detailed Qi conditions in the human body. It provides practitioners a system to help establish a treatment method with Channels and Collaterals, and Channel Points, and contributes to promote true values of Oriental Medicine. Keyword:
