Acupuncture Anatomy: Regional Micro-Anatomy And Systemic Acupuncture Networks
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

Acupuncture Anatomy: Regional Micro-Anatomy and Systemic Acupuncture Networks integrates Western and Eastern medicine, providing a scientific foundation to acupuncture. By correlating detailed anatomical information with specific acupuncture points, the book opens a window into understanding the physiological basis of acupuncture medicine. Each acupuncture point is described in terms of musculature, vasculature, and innervation. Special consideration is also given to the position of organs, muscles, nerves, arteries, and veins with respect to the acupuncture point. A separate section is devoted to cross sections of the human body. The book is divided into four major parts. The first part discusses the underlying principles of traditional Oriental medicine and acupuncture. The second covers the pathophysiology of the organ systems. The third reviews various disease etiologies and the last part presents common diseases that are effectively treated through acupuncture. Written by an author with degrees in both Western and Eastern medicine, the book’s bulleted format and numerous illustrations make it easy to read and understand. It is a valuable companion for those wanting to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western medicine, as it relates to acupuncture.

I'm an acupuncturist in California and was an OMD in Korea. I took anatomy dissection class in Korea and spent whole two year to finish theory and experiment. However I was in need to review the anatomy on regular basis. Finally I found this book.1. It shows the detailed cross section. So I can see all the pathway where my needle goes through. It's a perfect safe guard for needling.2. As usual practitioner rub patient's skin and tissue before inserting needle. Through this book I'm able to understand the underlying landmark to determine the exact acupuncture point.Bottom line : this book is a wonderful reference for actual acupuncture practitioner.

as a newly practicing acupuncturist but a long term neuromuscular therapist, I found this to be THE BEST book to integrate the two. I would highly highly recommend it.

Taking responsbility for dealing with this book

This book need more images from each point, no simplest images of the meridians
