Art of Palpatory Diagnosis in Oriental Medicine

Description

The powerful line drawings and photos of this book gives the reader an accurate sense of what is being seen and felt. Emphasis is placed on the integration of Chinese & Japanese medical thought. 117 illustrations. - By A. Gardner-Abbate. (2001) 324pp

This book provides a step-by-step introduction and practical guide to palpation as a method of assessment, diagnosis and treatment within the context of Oriental medicine, and in particular Japanese acupuncture practice. Leading the reader through the ‘how’ and ‘what’ of touch, around the abdomen (or the ‘hara’) and other key areas of the body, the author also explores key acupuncture points for clearing these areas, as well as Japanese needle techniques. The aim of this book is to allow the reader to have a more vivid and sensitive feel for what lies below acupuncture meridians and points, and to be able to assess and treat a very wide variety of clinical conditions - with an understanding of the individual patient-successfully.
