Features: This book applies the perspective of reflexology, summarizing meridians as the physiological and pathological reflex system of the human body. It proposes that acupuncture therapy is a form of reflex therapy, revitalizing traditional acupuncture therapy and meridian theory, thereby bridging the gap between them and modern medicine. This book compiles the abundant achievements and experiences of researchers from ancient and modern China and abroad, including the author's 37 years of clinical and research work in acupuncture both domestically and internationally. It elucidates the essence of meridians and explores the main technical theories of acupuncture therapy, with a particular emphasis on analyzing the challenges in treating stubborn conditions in clinical practice and identifying ways to enhance therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, it serves not only as an advanced reference book for acupuncture clinicians, researchers, and educators but also as an ideal textbook for Western medicine practitioners seeking to learn and integrate acupuncture therapy.
