Healing
Power Of Acupressure and Acupuncture
by Matthew Bauer
Paperback: 224 pages ISBN: 1583332162
Publisher: Avery (March 3, 2005) |
This accessible, up-to-date
resource guide leads you through the foundations and techniques of acupressure and
acupuncture.
Acupressure and acupuncture can relieve painful conditions such as migraine headaches,
lower back pain, joint disorders, carpal tunnel syndrome, asthma, allergies, stress,
nausea, heart problems, and many others. Today, most health-care plans cover these
treatments, making them more popular than ever.
Filled with insights into the history of these two age-old therapies, The Healing Power of
Acupressure and Acupuncture helps readers choose when to see a licensed therapist, and
even provides information about doing certain treatments at home. Matthew D. Bauer delves
deeply into the traditions and remarkable benefits of acupressure and acupuncture,
explains the many benefits of both, describes techniques for self-treatment, and
illustrates how Chinese healing can augment modern Western medicine. |
