In this revolutionary and innovative book, the author has shown that acupuncture points, meridians and the laws of acupuncture are largely an illusion. He has developed an entirely new system of acupuncture which is more closely allied to Western medicine,based upon a sophisticated understanding of acupuncture areas, radiation of sensation, and Strong Reactor patients, often using only a single gentle needle prick. Separate chapters deal with techniques of micro-acupuncture and periosteal acupuncture.
This second edition contains important new material on the practical application of needling anywhere in the hand or foot to evoke a response in half of the body. This is consonant with the findings of neurophysiology, opening the door to future scientific investigation of acupuncture phenomena. There are also sections on hyper-micro acupuncture, the Inhibited Patient, the correct interval between treatments, and the symbiotic relationship between mind and body in successful treatment.
Reinventing Acupuncture is a revolutionary book in its field, offering exciting new material in an accessible format. The theories discussed are simply explained for application in the everyday practice of acupuncture.
