Product Description

Review

"Aided by numerous attractive illustrations and many quotations, it covers virtually every aspect of channel history, theory, pathways and clinical uses, not just of the primary channels of course, but also of the membranes and fat tissue, the triple burner, the connecting, muscle, divergent channels and the cutaneous regions.

This is yet another extraordinary comprehensive book from Giovanni Maciocia."

Journal of Chinese Medicine / Number 83 / February 2007

Product Description

One of the most highly-regarded and respected authors and lecturers in the West, Giovanni Maciocia, illuminates and examines the art of traditional Chinese acupuncture with this in-depth look at the secondary channels and other key structures encompassing the human body in Chinese anatomy. This book describes in detail the pathways, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of the Luo, Muscle, and Divergent secondary channels, as well as other key structures such as the Cou Li and Huang membranes, and gives a thorough, clear overview of subjects poorly understood and incompletely covered in other English language texts. Over one third of the book is dedicated to the Eight Extraordinary Channels, providing the reader with the most in-depth information available in the English language. Drawing on his broad clinical experience, the author covers the energetic physiology, pathology and points by body area, providing ease of access for both the student and practitioner of acupuncture. "The Channels of Acupuncture" presents comprehensive and clear information on an essential part of traditional Chinese medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you're a professional acupuncturist buy this., 22 Mar 2008
By Joseph Balensi - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Channels of Acupuncture: Clinical Use of the Secondary Channels and Eight Extraordinary Vessels (Hardcover)
This book answers countless questions I had while in school,demystifies how acupoints create their effects and has improved my treatment design hugely. After reading the Table of Contents and sampling sections of the book I decided to read it from cover to cover. I know its expensive but its a lot cheaper than a single 3 semester hour course and contains the knowledge of several courses.
