Includes bibliographical references and index.

This manual illustrates the whole range of 409 acupuncture points and main channels, the Extraordinary Vessels Ren Mai and Du Mai, and the Extraordinary Points in a systematic and clear way. By combining Chinese sources with the authors' experience in therapy, this book features a sensible balance-a bridge between Asian and Western views of acupuncture. It provides novice practitioners with an overview of the most important acupuncture points, as well as seldom used points to extend the knowledge of experienced practitioners.
