Clinical Acupuncture and Ancient Chinese Medicine weaves together historical perspectives, ancient wisdom, and modern medicine to provide a holistic, effective, and rewarding way to understand and apply acupuncture in clinical practice. Methodology for memorizing the function of acupuncture meridians and points is supplemented by nearly 600 high-quality images that illustrate point locations and needle insertion techniques. Algorithms for making diagnostic formulations, developing treatment strategies, and implementing effective therapeutic interventions are emphasized.
