By correlating detailed anatomical information with specific acupuncture points, the book opens a window into understanding the physiological basis of acupuncture medicine. It discusses anatomical structures surrounding traditional acupuncture points. Each acupuncture point is described in terms of musculature, vasculature, and innervation. Special consideration is also given to the position of organs, muscles, nerves, arteries, and veins with respect to the acupuncture point. Also discussed are the principles behind acupuncture, the pathophysiology of the organ systems, disease etiologies, and common diseases that are effectively treated through acupuncture.
