Opis książki
Pediatrics has long been recognized as an important branch of traditional Chinese Medicine, and there are many specialized texts in Chinese devoted to this topic. Acupuncture in the Treatment of Children is the leadning English-language textbook at this field. In it, the authors describe nearly all of the illness and conditions that commonly beset children, together with a clear explanation of how they occur. It is based on 40 years of clinical experience, so the authors can describe in detail the likely results of treatment.
Mothers and children are now more nervous and highly strung, making many children terrified of needles. The chapter on needle technique has been expanded to include laser and microcurrent treatment for the frightened child.
