Answer to Question 1

Hanyak is the traditional approach to natural cures in Korea. It is typically practiced by a hanui. When a client visits a hanui, he or she obtains a medical history, observes how the patient looks, listens to the quality of the voice, and takes the patient's pulse. More than twenty-four pulse conditions are defined, from floating to sunken, and smooth, vacant, or accelerated. Hanyak medications are classified according to their plant, animal, or mineral source, and mixed in ways to balance um (yin), yang, and ki. Other physical therapies to restore harmony and vital energy, such as acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, and sweating, may also be applied.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
