Synopsis

Previously only available as part of Stux' Acupuncture - Textbook and Atlas, the selector is now available in a package together with three new posters which depict the most important acupuncture points topographically. Photographs of the human skin were deliberately not used, as they do not allow the structures directly beneath the surface to be portrayed. To ensure a clear and exact representation, the bones have been drawn in the background. The selector presents the various categories of acupuncture points in tabular form, enabling the user to recognize the most important points of a meridian at a glance. An indispensable aid for every acupuncturist.

About this title

From the Back Cover

The most important acupuncture points are clearly depicted topographically on posters. We chose not to use photographs of the body surface because the structures which are directly under the skin cannot be portrayed. To ensure a clear and yet exact representation the bones have been drawn in the background. The graphic representation of the meridians and points are an indispensable aid to every acupuncturist, and the various categories of acupuncture points are presented in tables on the selector, enabling the user to recognize the most important points of a meridian at a glance.
