Based on his thirty years of using acupuncture in an integrative medical practice, Power of the Five Elements presents the Five Adaptation Types, Dr. Charles Moss's modern application of the Five Elements of Chinese medicine. If you are ready to increase your energy levels, improve your mood, and reduce your risk for serious illness, get started today and discover your Adaptation Type through Power of the Five Elements.

- Case histories and questionnaires to identify your Adaptation Type and specific, individualized recommendations--behavioral changes, exercises, meditations--to improve adaptation, reduce stress, and enhance healthy aging
