Product Details

Chuán Yǎ(Chuan Ya)

1. An Encyclopedia of Unorthodox Healing

Chuán Yǎ, compiled in 1759 by the Hangzhou physician Zhao Xuemin in collaboration with the itinerant healer master Zhao Boyun, is a groundbreaking work in Chinese medical history. Its four volumes (Inner and Outer Compilations) collect over 4,000 folk remedies and unique techniques, representing the first systematic record of non-orthodox medical systems. Its significance lies in moving beyond the "medicine of the court" to scientifically organize the practical knowledge of itinerant healers, herbalists, and practitioners long marginalized by the mainstream, creating a parallel system of folk medical knowledge.
