Acupuncture Therapy - Current Chinese Practice

Acupuncture - the use of needles inserted into the body to relieve pain and treat disease - has been successfully practised in China for thousands of years. This is the first authoritative text in English on the practical aspects of acupuncture therapy as it is currently practised by doctors in the People's Republic of China. The authors have based their work on the standard Chinese texts now used in China, which present recent refinements in acupuncture therapy.
