Review Quotes

Acupuncture workbooks have become popular over the last decade. This book is certainly the best one I have had the pleasure to read and assess. I thoroughly recommend that acupuncture students, and those acupuncturists, shiatsu therapists and those who practice acupressure who do not have an encyclopaedic memory of each point should immediately invest in a copy of this book. You will not be disappointed.-- "Positive Health Online"

I found the overall layout of the book very pleasing. The channels are given in the order of the horary clock and the way they are presented flows. The whole book is so cleverly thought out and designed in a way that draws the student or practitioner in. I really enjoyed working through the book as a practitioner and I'm sorry it wasn't around when I was a student. I highly recommend this book and wish everyone a joyful experience in learning or relearning their points.--Natalie Johnson "Acu, the magazine of the British Acupuncture Council"
