Synopsis

Songs and rhymes have been used by physicians for centuries in China as a means of memorizing and passing on methods of practice and behavior, moral attitudes, effective points, diagnostic tips and rules of thumb. These poems offer a rich insight into the life and work of these skilled doctors, as well as direct and practical indications for treatment. Contemporary acupuncturists can see from this the depths of traditional practice, better understand the complexities of diagnosis and treatment planning, and as a result greatly improve their practice.
