The media that accompanies this is very helpful! The book is well-organized and written. It gives acupuncturists information not easily obtained otherwise! I highly recommend this book!

The book is wonderful. The information is well organized.The only real problem is that I use a Mac Book Pro (2011). The DVD ROM will not work on my Mac. I had to take the DVD to School in order to view it. Once I did I thought it was well worth the effort.

Very informative, if you want to learn different techniques of needling. There is also a dvd with demonstrations included.

Basic needling techniques. Good small book
