Reviews
Review Journal of Chinese Medicine: "The authors deserve sincere approval for collaborating to write this book. They are making a tremendous contribution to the possibility of increasing dialogue within the acupuncture community far beyond the integration of Five Element Constitutional Acupuncture and TCM. From the Foreword to the first edition by Peter Eckman, San Francisco: "...the authors have shown how their approach can even integrate with TCM findings to treat patients more completely and rapidly. As the case histories illustrate, Five Element Constitutional Acupuncture is a style of practice that is second to none, and this innovative text is an excellent resource for learning it"
