Capping a career that spans over five decades, Shudo Denmei, a leading teacher and authority on Meridian Therapy in Japan, has compiled 160 case studies that are representative of his practice of acupuncture and moxibustion and reflect the way that his practice has evolved.

Fifty Years of Practice: The Case Studies of Shudo Denmei is written as a guide for acupuncturists at various stages in their own practices. Dr. Shudo shares both his successes and failures, challenges and insights. It is a wide-ranging text, covering topics as varied as psychological and musculoskeletal. He reveals the entire process of his treatments from questioning to palpation diagnosis, and then to point selection and insertion technique.

The case studies are organized by categories of disorders and cover practically every type of condition that can be treated with acupuncture: musculoskeletal, circulatory, digestive, respiratory, urogenital, gynecological and others. Based on his deep knowledge of both Western and East Asian medicine, Dr. Shudo discusses the possibilities as well as the limitations of acupuncture and moxibustion. He shares an abundance of knowledge and wisdom with his trademark humor and humanity. This is an inspiring, clinically-oriented memoire of a master practitioner with a lifelong passion for the art of healing.

Review

"A significant part of the readability of Denmei Shudo’s books is the self-effacing charm of his authorial voice. Despite his great skill and experience, he talks to the reader as practitioner to practitioner, without the grandiosity or esotericism to which exponents of traditional East Asian medicine (TEAM) are prone. In particular, the author is humble and honest about his own limitations, as well as those of acupuncture. This kind of information is clinical gold, especially for less experienced practitioners.

Whether or not you share Denmei Shudo’s approach to acupuncture, his curiosity, diligence, rigour, humility and honesty mark him out as an exceptional practitioner and teacher. In a field such as acupuncture, where the subtlety inherent in the qi paradigm, coupled with the diversity of approaches available make deep understanding challenging, the sheer depth of clinical experience distilled into this text makes this book worthy of attention by all acupuncture practitioners."

—Daniel Maxwell, The Journal of Chinese Medicine

I Smell Like a Gentleman Who Owns a Fireplace
Scent: Bourbon Oak, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The fragrance is warm, woody, and slightly sweet...that low amber note that smells expensive without trying to smell expensive, which, as we all know, is the actual expensive smell. My wife walked past me twenty minutes post-shower and said, unprompted, "You smell really good." I nodded like I had planned this. The lather is genuinely rich; squeeze a modest amount and it blooms into a thick, creamy foam that covers everything efficiently. The texture is silky rather than watery, which matters more than people admit. Watery body washes feel like rinsing off with slightly scented regret. This one feels intentional. It cleans, and your skin actually feels clean afterward, not just rinsed. And the moisturizing? I wasn't expecting it. No greasy film, no lotion-begging dry patches by midday. Just quietly softer skin that doesn't make a big announcement about it. Now, my honest gripe: the scent longevity has a ceiling. By mid-afternoon you're back to neutral. That's the gap between four stars and five for me. For daily freshness and an incredible morning window of smelling genuinely great, it absolutely delivers...but it won't carry you to bedtime. On value: 16 fl oz is decent, the lather is efficient so the bottle lasts, and the price sits in that sweet spot where you feel like someone who makes slightly elevated but still reasonable choices, which is exactly the vibe this entire product is going for.

Lathers great in a small amount!
Scent: Bergamot, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Bergamot, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Lathers great for a small amount! A fair price for the amount and rich content. I just bought, used and love it. Definitely will purchase again. I love the sophisticated yet sensible smell doesn't overpower. In my perception it is a unisex scent as I am a woman and bought for myself.

Smells Like You Have Your Life Together
Scent: Bergamot, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Cremo Body Wash with Italian Bergamot, Neroli Blossom, and Fresh Vetiver smells far more expensive than it has any right to. The scent hits that sweet spot between fresh and refined. The bergamot gives it a clean citrus lift, the neroli adds a smooth floral edge, and the vetiver grounds it with a subtle, masculine depth that does not scream but absolutely speaks. The lather is rich and concentrated, so you only need a small amount. It feels more like something you would find in a boutique hotel than on a regular store shelf. The fragrance lingers just enough to be noticed without overpowering your cologne or filling the entire room. If you want to step out of the shower smelling like competence and quiet confidence, this one delivers. It is polished without trying too hard, and it makes everyday showers feel slightly upgraded.
