Features: Elder Liu Shoushan has been engaged in clinical practice and teaching of TCM orthopedics for over 50 years, renowned for his rich clinical and teaching experience, as well as his remarkable therapeutic effects through manipulation. He is known for the saying "seven parts manipulation, three parts medicine." He has prepared eight methods for each of the three areas: fracture reduction, dislocation reduction, and tendon injury treatment, with unique manipulation techniques and significant therapeutic outcomes. In the treatment of soft tissue injuries, he emphasizes the holistic view of TCM, which is particularly distinctive. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a general introduction to the normal human body's tendons, bones, manipulation techniques, diagnosis, tools, and medication. The second part introduces the reduction techniques, massage, and prescriptions for four types of diseases: fractures, dislocations, tendon injuries, and internal injuries. The book includes over 300 illustrations, making it rich in both text and visuals, facilitating reference and use for readers. This book was first published in 1966, revised in 1992, and is now reprinted for publication.
