Features: The author of this book applies traditional Chinese medicine theory and modern medical scientific knowledge, combining their extensive clinical experience, to explore, organize, and enhance the understanding of injury mechanisms caused by traditional Chinese massage techniques (known as "diēdǎ diǎnjiù") that were previously kept secret in. The book consists of eleven chapters. The first three chapters introduce common acupoints, the twelve meridians, and the relationships among acupoints, meridians, qi and blood, and time. Chapters four to nine discuss the etiology, pathogenesis, symptoms, signs, diagnosis, first aid, and treatment of injuries caused by these techniques. Chapters ten to eleven feature selected diagrams, effective treatment methods, and typical case studies related to traditional Chinese massage techniques from the Ming and Qing dynasties. The book is rich in content, well-documented, and illustrated with visuals, making it suitable for orthopedic surgeons, massage therapists, and grassroots healthcare workers as a reference in their work. It is also available for the general public, especially martial arts enthusiasts, to consult.
