This year the Foundation awarded four scholarships - two for $3000 and two for $2000. A goal of the Foundation is to provide generous assistance to deserving students of Oriental Medicine and at the same time grow and preserve funds for future scholarships.

Contributions can be made directly to the TM Foundation and also can be made via our website. All individuals, colleges, vendors, and organizations who contribute are recognized on our website.

Think of your most difficult patient – the one you try to motivate and work so hard with to develop a realistic treatment plan with achievable and measurable goals. Week after week, you see this patient struggle, sinking deeper into hopelessness as their health and quality of life continue to worsen. What if there was something else you could do that could change their outlook and their life? The solution is as simple as an automated program.
To paraphrase the Tao de Jing; a bowl is useful because of the empty space. Recent anatomical research uncovered evidence for previously undescribed large-scale pathways that span organs, blood vessels and other connective tissue. These pathways are defined by what is known as the interstitial space between cells. The newer research provides evidence that these interstitial spaces actually make very large-scale networks between different types of tissue.
