Illustrations of Special Effective Acupoints for Common Diseases is a concise, practical guide to the most clinically important acupuncture points. Compiled and edited by senior specialists and professors from the School of Acupuncture, Moxibustion, and Massage at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, this book provides authoritative guidance for both study and practice.
Acupuncture therapy relies on the precise stimulation of specific points to achieve therapeutic effects. This book focuses on the most effective points, including points of the fourteen meridians, five-shu points, yuan-source points, luo-connecting points, xi-cleft points, back-shu and front-mu points, lower he-sea points of the six fu organs, eight influential points, and confluence points of the eight extraordinary vessels.
Clear illustrations accompany each point, making it easy to locate and apply them accurately in clinical settings. This makes the book an essential reference for teachers, students, researchers, and professional clinical practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
