acupuncture anyone? by Dawn Wagner (Elkhorn, NE USA)  3 Stars
April 03, 2009
Saw this book sitting on my chiropractor's desk..in my opinion..get acupuncture from a licensed acupuncturist.. LAc's have 4-6 years of education whereas most chiropractors have less than 1 year. This book is great for a beginner, really covers the basics. By the way, acupuncture is amazing!

Nice Book by Demitri Pevzner (depends on time of year)  5 Stars
February 02, 2009
What I like about this book, is that it lists hypothetical scenarios of patients coming in with specific health problems, guides you through the diagnosis of the patient based on TCM, and outlines the treatment points.
Definitely a useful addition to a TCM student's library.

Exactly what I was looking for by Kat Thompson (Seattle, WA United States) 5 Stars
September 18, 2008
I bought a number of acupuncture books to learn a little bit more about the treatments I am getting. I really wanted to know the general history of the subject and how it works and why. This was definitely the best book out of the six I looked at! There were some other good ones, but they were too involved and much more suited to someone studying the practice. Some were just too elementary or dummed down. This presented a very intelligent and interesting historical review and then taught you the basics of the body's systems, meridians, points, and gave examples of how certain diseases, ailments, injuries are treated. Not all encompassing, but just the exact amount of information that I wanted and needed. I would recommend it to anyone considering acupuncture or anyone who just wants to have a better understanding of it. It's a pretty quick read that I did in a matter of a few nights.

This is phenomenal book! by Trasse (USA) 5 Stars
December 08, 2007
Great book,great info and I will definitely be going to an acupuncturist after reading this.I have since making this reveiw been to one twice. OMG it was incredible. No sinus pressure or headaches for EIGHT MONTHS before I had to go back. It sure beats poppin allergy pills etc. and less expensive and more healthy in the long run. Downside is it is a little expensive but less than what all med and docs and missed work add up to!! My first visit was 100 bucks and 75.00 each visit thereafter, not bad consider how freakin awesome it made me feel and how long it lasted.
