¡¾Main Contents¡¿
Contemporary Medical Acupuncture aims to bridge the gap between classical acupuncture therapy and contemporary medicine to achieve their ultimate integration. Based on update reviews and systematic analysis, the meridians are actually systems of physiological and pathological reflexes in the body, and acupuncture therapy is a type of reflexotherapy. In the book, a novel concept called whole body reflex zones is proposed, which may efficiently inherit and clarify the meridian system. The systems methodology, together with the author¡¯s clinical expertise of 40 years, is applied to raise the reproducibility of effectiveness in treating various indications of acupuncture, especially intractable cases. Outstanding features of the book are its incisive and concrete descriptions about great deal of case studies. It is an advanced, practical and valuable resource for any acupuncture practitioner interested in sharpening clinical skills, as well as an essential and comprehensive text for medical doctors and other healthcare professional who desire to learn the essence of medical acupuncture and integrate it into their general practice.
