Description

Throughout history, acupuncture has provided painless, low-cost, non-invasive relief for conditions ranging from back pain and headaches to cancer and AIDS. As Americans seek viable, cost-effective health care alternatives, the benefits of acupuncture are gaining new respect in the West. In this guide, Marie Cargill, a licensed acupuncturist, de-mystifies acupuncture, explaining: how and why acupuncture works; how acupuncture is effective in most major medical specialisations; and what you can expect from a visit to the acupuncturist. Detailed, direct, and easy-to-follow, "Acupuncture" will persuade skeptics of the potential for this effective approach to healing.
