Revisiting Acupuncture - 67 Acupuncture Points Volume II

In a set of books which will be published over several years you find a mine of information on the world of acupuncture. Through the experience and the thoughts of a man who has devoted all his life to acupuncture. A medical doctor who thinks, examines, digests this technique. A practitioner who questions himself constantly, who searches for an adequacy between the theory, what he believes in and what he does in practice.

In this volume the author explains the locations of near to 70 points about which he has always something to say. He adds questions, suggestions, precisions, thoughts. An itinerary to follow, whether you are a student, a confirmed practitioner or just curious. An itinerary accompanied by anecdotes, stories, cultural insights, in order to give more depth and a more human dimension to the topic. Acupuncture is enlightened by China whose medical thinkers, long time ago, have invented the structure. It has now partly freed itself from its origins and taken specific shapes depending on the country, the culture, the group. Recently science has shed its light upon it, using modern methodology to understand many aspects.

Not everything is to be accepted in acupuncture. It is essential to make a selction according to our actual knowledge, to common sense, to the medical environment in wich we live. This is what the author is aiming at, attempting to simplify, to organize, to keep or to reject, in order to improve his pratice and to inform all those who will read his books.

A sum wich cannot leave you indifferent.
