Features: This book has the following characteristics:
1. Illustrations and Text: Most acupuncture and moxibustion textbooks are purely textual descriptions without illustrations or only include a few simple line drawings. This book is equipped with oil painting-style color illustrations to clearly indicate the positions of acupuncture points. We have adopted a layout that allows for side-by-side comparison of text and images, enabling readers to easily refer to the corresponding point positions while reading the text. We hope this format can achieve a harmonious integration of text and images, complementing and enhancing each other.
2. Concise Text: The book minimizes the amount of text while increasing the space for illustrations, highlighting the features of acupuncture point position diagrams. The text is limited to sections titled "Clinical Manifestations" and "Treatment Methods"; content such as etiology and pathogenesis, case studies, and literature excerpts have been excluded.
3. Combination of Body Acupuncture and Auricular Acupuncture: Body acupuncture refers to the use of meridian points or extraordinary points to treat diseases, distinguishing it from localized point selection methods such as hand acupuncture or head acupuncture. Auricular acupuncture refers to the treatment of diseases by stimulating reflex points (acupoints) on the ear. This book combines body acupuncture and auricular acupuncture, complementing each other to improve therapeutic efficacy.
4. Point Localization: Point localization is one of the important steps in acupuncture and moxibustion, and accurate positioning is the guarantee of therapeutic efficacy. To facilitate readers, an index of body acupuncture and auricular acupuncture points has been added to the appendix for easy reference.
5. Innovative Design: The book features a novel, lively, and innovative design in its binding.
