Traditional Acupuncture: The Law of the Five Elements
5 reviews
Dianne M. Connelly
Traditional Acupuncture Institute, Incorporat
, 1994
This is a beautiful book
I gave Dianne Connelly's book on the Five Elements to my mother, an artist, because it clearly describes the art of Chinese medicine. It lifts the veil from the mysteries of a healing tradition that expresses a deep respect for nature and wellness. The British school of acupuncture often looks deeper than quick-fix Chinese medicine by reaching for the source of imbalance.. It is well worth ...

Improved Graphics
The Deadman text is required by most TCM schools. If you have the previous version and already know your points this version might not be needed, you can always get the new CD when it comes out. If you are still learning then the illustrations are improved, making it easier to locate the exact location of a point. There have been some corrections made to known errors in the previous edition. ...

Please Re-Read Pericardium-6, "The Wild Card"
This is the clearest text I have found on Chinese Medicine. So many of the large volume texts require an experienced eye to sift through and discern what is clinically useful and what is merely interesting information of no clinical use. In Art of Acupuncture Techniques everything appears to be useful. Although the book is not large in size, it is large in the author's knowledge of medicine, ...

A Voluminous (only slightly flawed) Mainstay
This book got short shrift in our education even though we bought in in the first year or two. It is essential for its coverage of auricular and scalp acupuncture (not to mention other imaging styles such as "nose acupuncture"). It also has a slightly different view of channel pathology symptoms from "Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion" (CAM) or "Foundations of Chinese Medicine." The way they ...

A quality book
I was a bit dubious about buying this book as I have a lot of books on acupuncture already and no one had reviewed it. The reason I was considering it was mainly because of the ear acupuncture, which is often not covered in much detail in mainstream acupuncture books. Anyway, about a year after looking at it (since it was always popping up when I was browsing), I took the plunge - and it was ...

FIve Stars Seems a bit much but let me explain ...
I have been training in TCM most of my life now. The thing about a lot of these transations is that people often make assumptions based on grammer ECT ... about what these books are worth ... my Chinese is OK ... but I don't have perfect grammar and most Chinese respect that. There is a bit of Chinglish in this book, but it is definately read-able. The books from the mainland are usually the ...

If you're a professional acupuncturist buy this.
This book answers countless questions I had while in school,demystifies how acupoints create their effects and has improved my treatment design hugely. After reading the Table of Contents and sampling sections of the book I decided to read it from cover to cover. I know its expensive but its a lot cheaper than a single 3 semester hour course and contains the knowledge of several courses.
Acupuncture Energetics: A Workbook for Diagnostics and Treatment

Practical and Conveys Conceptual Understanding
I found this book to be more practical than most books on the subject, and it also gives a good conceptual understanding -- something all too rare, in this area. If you want to learn what really works, is practical, and learn to go beyond using approaches that are like mechanical, rote formulas...you'll like this book.

everything you wanted to know about 5 element acupuncture and more
I recently purchased this text at the recommendation of my instructor for a 5 Element course for physician acupuncturists. I have found it to be invaluable to introduce and reinforce the ideas presented in the course. In short--it's excellent. Buy it.

What a miracle book!
I consider myself very fortunate to have read this book..As a member of KOMD(Korea Orient Medicine Doctor)I read and learned many books related with acupuncture skills. But this book is the best . This book presents very elegant patterns of treatment based upon a profound ancient text combined with decades of clinical expertise, reflection and refinement. The nature of facial rejubanating ...

A ?must have? for practitioners meridian acupuncture
As the name implies, meridian based acupuncture places a prime importance on the meridian system in both the diagnosis and treatment of disease and dysfunction in the body. It is often called classical acupuncture because its theory is based on ancient classical texts like the "Ling Shu", the "Su Wen" and the "Nan Jing." Meridian based acupuncture contrasts with the herbalized form of ...

A must have in any Acupuncture Library
Shudo Sensei is a true gift to the Acupuncture community. It is rare to find and acupuncturist with such great skill and even more rare to find one who is willing to share his information and personal experiences so openly. Shudo Sensei provides a practical look at points which are commonly used and explains proper needling technique, location and indications. He still stresses the need for a ...
Five Spirits: Alchemical Acupuncture for Psychological And Spiritual Healing
5 reviews
Lorie Eve Dechar
Lantern Books
, 2005
Five Spirits for Inspiration and Healing
I found Lorie Dechar's Five Spirits to be breathtaking in the way it presents a new vision and context for healing. When talking about the ephemeral "spirits" of Chinese Taoist thought (which are guideposts on our journey, like the chakras), she shows that the journey downward that includes the parts of ourselves that seem most chaotic and where we have least control is a journey to true ...

Gathers no dust
Acupuncture Energetics: A Clinical Approach for Physicians is an outstanding text. After taking the course I am using acupuncture in my dental practice for oral and craniofacial disorders. I have two copies of the text, one in the office and one at home. It melds, in a wonderful style, both eastern and western concepts and contains all that I need to know to feel confident in my approach to ...

A well written book on a complicated and ancient art
This book helped me save a horse's life. When I was far from veterinary care and had a horse stricken with colic, I was able to help him using the techniques learned in this book which augmented the veterinary acupuncture course I had taken years before. The illustrations and charts are very well done and they alone are worth the purchase price.

More Than a Jolly Good Read
As an acupuncturist I found this book to be a really lovely synergy between the Flower Essence indications and the properties of the Chinese Qi Meridians. The design of the book itself is beautiful; the little green corner at the top left of the cover is inspired. Although I enjoyed reading the book I was dubious about clinical applications, but have been more than pleasantly surprised. Using ...

Much needed practical book
Finally there is a biomedical explanation of practical acupuncture system which anyone practicing acupuncture can immediately use. It is easy to read and easy to understand. Explanation of basic neuroanatomy and dynamics of acupoints immediately answers a lot of my practical questions. The best part is their unique easy to follow system which I start to use for pain problems. This book definitely ...
