Tong Ren Healing Being Studied By Harvard Medical School/Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
After having much interest and discussion for years about doing more research into Tong Ren Therapy, Professor Sullivan from Harvard Medical School has now initiated a study. We hope that this preliminary analysis of our work will lead to more detailed studies of our techniques. The surveys will be given in our Massachusetts area classes. The information is below:
A Pilot Investigation of the Tong Ren Healing System: A Survey Study
Principal Investigator: Amy M. Sullivan, EdD
Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Boston, MA
The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary evidence of the efficacy of the Tong Ren Healing System in improving symptoms from treatment or disease through an anonymous cross-sectional survey of participants of Tong Ren Healing sessions. We will collect self-report surveys from attendees at 6 different sites for Tong Ren Healing group sessions (“guinea pig classesâ€ÂÂ) in Massachusetts. A self-administered survey has been developed for this study to assess the following: conditions for which people seek treatment; duration of treatment; other treatment modalities sought for condition; reports of changes in symptoms and conditions; for those who report improvement, extent of improvement. Although the primary population of interest is patients with cancer, we will collect surveys from all attendees to assess impact of Tong Ren on other chronic conditions. Approximately 300 participants will take part in this study. Results will be used as preliminary evidence for future research in this healing modality.

Pi Gu is a fasting program which comes from traditional Taoist practices. This is a lost art in China and with this book Tom has not only introduced this system to the Western world but provided those cultures previously familiar with the teachings a record of its existence and usage. The Pi Gu system is used by Tom in his clinic for weightloss and also for those looking to increase their spiritual understandings. This text explains the theory behind Pi Gu and also provides a discussion and explanation of the Tai Chi Dao Yin system of Qi Gong. ($15.00)
