Single Point Acupuncture and Moxibustion for 100 Diseases is a comprehensive yet easy-to-follow guide to the clinical application of single point acupuncture and moxibustion therapy, with a special emphasis on methods and needle techniques. Single point acupuncture and moxibustion therapy differs from other forms of acupuncture in that only one point is selected during each session. The single point technique is noted for its quick therapeutic response and exceptional results, despite using far fewer points than traditional acupuncture therapy. It is a simple technique for practitioners to master, and patients are quick to extol the virtues of the single-point approach. Author Dr. Decheng Chen describes in detail how to treat one hundred of the most common clinical ailments, including headaches, neck pain, hypertension, and even the common cold. Dr. Chen uses both Western and traditional Chinese medical theory to describe his treatment methods. Each section consists of an introduction to the disease, a detailed explanation of the needle technique used, a case study of the treatment, and a discussion. With its easy-to-use format and step-by-step instructions, Single Point Acupuncture and Moxibustion for 100 Diseases is the definitive single point acupuncture guide for teachers, students, and acupuncture practitioners alike.
