Description
The SEIRIN Pictorial Atlas is a new kind of manual. It illustrates the entire range of acupuncture points, the main channels, Extraordinary Vessels Ren Mai and Du Mai, and Extraordinary Points in a systematic and clear way. The 409 important points are clarified through a series of three illustrations:
- a graphic indicates location on the body
- an overview of channels illustrates the point in the context of it pathway
- a photograph shows the acupuncture needle in position
By combining Chinese sources with the authors’ experience in therapy this book features a sensible balance between important indications and practical needs. The names, properties, and applications of the individual acupuncture points were revised on this basis.
This acupuncture atlas provides students an overview of the important acupuncture points, while experienced practitioners can expand their knowledge about seldom used acupuncture points.
