Acupuncture

Book excerpt: The majority of books on acupuncture prescribe either a Western or Traditional Chinese approach - this book combines the two in a manner which is now being adopted in mainland China and demonstrates the actual mutable compatibility of the two apparently vastly different approaches. The book covers a broad range of topics, beginning with an historical look into the origins of Traditional Chinese acupuncture treatment and its emergence over the years into Western practices. It then proceeds to introduce some new themes in acupuncture practice. Embraces Western and Chinese traditional approaches Covers the many different factors needed for successful diagnosis Based on forty years practical experience
