Acupuncture: An Anatomical Approach

Rating:
Summary: A logical, medical science based approach to acupuncture
Review: As a physician, I have found Dr. Dung's approach offers the most logical and reasonable means of understanding and using acupuncture as a pain relieving modality for everyday clinical practice. A simple review of a bit of gross anatomy (emphasizing the peripheral nervous system) is recommended. Any well motivated and prudent physician can begin using this information fairly rapidly and will soon see that allegiance to "Yin/Yang" theory and other philosophical constructs is unnecessary. Neuromodulation is based on basic science research and is the logical basis of this wonderful (but underutilized) modality. I highly recommend this book to any physician/dentist who has had interest in acupuncture but was turned off by the metaphysical baggage it has carried (until now).
