Synopsis

This timely and useful handbook contains concise summaries of acupuncture and moxibustion therapies. It includes discussions of basic theory, channels, points, pathogenesis, diagnostic methods, pattern identification, and treatment techniques-the information necessary for class preparation or quick clinical review. A major portion of the text is in graphic tables to reinforce comprehension and aid memorization. The information is presented in pattern sequences that clearly and succinctly describe the concept or treatment. Similarities or differences that go unrecognized in other presentation styles are quickly accessible with this user-friendly technique. This first volume is often used by students preparing for their exams. The "note card" format makes self-testing easy.

All terms have been carefully cross-referenced to popular texts. Classical Chinese five-phase acupuncture techniques, previously unavailable in English, are included. Practical and free of theoretical or clinical bias, this book offers a compilation of unsurpassed value as a review and as a ready reference, giving the reader easy access to a vast body of practical and theoretical knowledge.
