Pictorial Atlas of Acupuncture: An Illustrated Manual of Acupuncture Points

"Acupuncture in Latin means "sticking with the needle."

Each of the 409 important acupuncture points is

presented with an anatomical graphic, an overview of

the meridian and a photo showing the needle placement.

The combination of Chinese sources and the authors'

therapeutic experiences provides a sensible balance

between the most important indications and practical

needs. The names, properties, and applications of the

individual acupuncture points have been revised on

this basis. Far-Eastern healing methods and Western

observation techniques create a bridge between Asian

and Western views of acupuncture.

This acupuncture atlas not only provides beginners with

an overview of the most important acupuncture points,

but experienced practitioners can also learn about

seldom used acupuncture points and thus extend their

knowledge."
