Needling Techniques for Acupuncturists

Basic Principles and Techniques

This introduction to the key principles of needling techniques for acupuncturists has been produced with the needs of the student in mind, and serves as a core learning tool for beginners, and a handy reference for later use.

The book covers everything from the basics of good practice in care of filiform needles, through methods of insertion, to manipulation and the arrival of Qi. Reinforcing and reducing methods of acupuncture are explained, as are the four essential needling manipulations of Dragon-Tiger-Tortoise-Phoenix. The book concludes with practical chapters on the retention and withdrawal of needles, and the management and prevention of accidents. Explanations are clear and illustrated with diagrams, and fully demonstrated in action on the accompanying digital download. For ease of use, all key manipulations and principles are indexed on the digital download for quick reference and easy repetition.

This practical guide will be an invaluable learning and reference aid to all students and practitioners of acupuncture.
