About this book
Practiced for more than 2,000 years, acupuncture was once restricted to the realm of alternative medicine. This book dispels these notions and brings this once backroom therapy into the forefront explaining it in terms that can be easily comprehended by all medical professionals. Presenting a scientific, anatomical approach to acupuncture, it discusses the basics of the nervous system, acupuncture points throughout the body, and measurement and quantification of pain. It reviews applications of acupuncture in clinical practice, from cases easy to treat to those more challenging, and concludes with theories on the future of acupuncture.
