This illustrated guidebook introduces readers to the theory and practice of acupuncture and acupressure, as well as related treatment methods. The book also explores the ancient sources of Chinese medicine, the energy theory that is the foundation of acupuncture and the martial arts, stimulating acupuncture points with heat and electricity, and using acupressure points for self-defense.
