Master Tung's Acupuncture Primer: An introduction to the Master Tung Acupuncture system - Paperback

by L. Robert Chu (Author)

This book is a Primer, an introduction of the quintessential basics. Something that a person who has not attended my seminars could read quickly, and immediately familiarize themselves with the core concepts, imaging, channel methods, have a few "go-to" points, and immediately apply the magic of Master Tung's Acupuncture in the clinic. It is not exhaustive in theory, details, or intricacies, but shows the power of the system to a TCM trained acupuncturist and immediately benefit by it. When I first started working with Master Tung's Acupuncture in acupuncture school, I read the available books of that time and wished there was a simple book to present the information. Since the average acupuncturist already is familiar with over 400 points, why scrap that and begin another system? But in the way I wrote this Primer, they can simply add to the information they have and then immediately apply this in the clinic.There are many books on Master Tung's Acupuncture, but often these books may be too much for the beginner and do not let the beginner grasp useful concepts or how to use Master Tung's Acupuncture. But don't underestimate the power of the content of this book. It will certainly transform your practice. The idea of this book is to give you a simple and elegant rationale for using the system., use the powerful 14 Channel acupuncture you are already familiar with, and make use of the Master Tung system immediately.
