Book Description
This concise pocket-sized acupuncture guide is what professionals have been asking for!

Coming from diverse specialties, the authors provide you with the most complete, useful, and accurate information available. Acupuncture points are described using the "visual-didactic processing system," which is rapidly gaining praise and recognition for its easy-to-use format.
