On the Theory and Practical Application of Channels and Collaterals - Paperback

by Guan Zun Hui (Author), Andrew McPherson (Editor)

The Jing Luo Theory plays an important role in the theoretical system of Chinese medicine. It offers a recipe to help people live better lives. Based on more than thirty years of research, in On the Theory and Practical Application of Channels and Collaterals, author and professor Guan Zun hui examines this concept.

Originally written and published in the mid-1980s in China, it's been translated into English by Andrew McPherson, a leading acupuncturist and practitioner, to help people obtain a better understanding of acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. It systematically introduces the theory of channels and collaterals and demonstrates the control function of channels and collaterals theory in the Chinese medicine treatment system.

With case studies included, On the Theory and Practical Application of Channels and Collaterals combines ancient techniques and modern understanding to provide both an advanced theory and practical advice on the use of acupuncture in health, including diagnosis and treatment.
