Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

The ability to apply complex theory to practice is a vital skill for acupuncturists. Case studies and medical records are an extremely useful resource for understanding how to differentiate between different syndromes, and provide invaluable precedents for deciding upon appropriate methods of diagnosis and treatment. This book presents a collection of real case studies of patients who have been treated by prominent acupuncture practitioners in China. The case studies are divided into five sub-categories of disease, and include information on the patient's medical history, presenting complaint, symptoms, tongue and pulse examination, diagnosis, treatment, and prescription as well as the Western diagnosis. More than 170 different case studies are included in the book, covering 73 different types of syndromes and disease. A useful appendix with the Chinese and English names for these syndromes is also included. Compiled by leading experts at the China Beijing International Acupuncture Training Center (CBIATC), under the editorial direction of leading Chinese clinicians Zhu Bing and Wang Hongcai, this book is a useful reference for acupuncture practitioners and students at all levels.

I don't own this book yet but I tried to look inside this book and I am wondering/surprised why these case studies did not have any herbal formulas. Chinese medicine originated from using Herbal Formulas. Acupuncture was later introduced as an enhancer. Perhaps all the cases I reviewed did not have them. Can someone tell me there are cases in this book that does have herbal formulas? I am looking for a book (case studies) where they have used herbal formulas and acupuncture treatments.
