Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I have found the intro text to Japanese Meridian Therapy written by Shudo Denmai to be very useful as well. He goes into very useful ways to separate a channel problem from an organ problem. This book has a wealth of theory but is really geared toward clinical practice. It would be helpful to know more about your training style and the type of pracitioner you plan to become (TCM vs Japanese, etc). Hope it helps. Mike W.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 I would agree with Mike. Actually this introduction by Shudo Denmai is probably the best writing about acupuncture I've ever seen. doug > " mike Bowser " naturaldoc1 > Thu May 11, 2006 7:48am(PDT) > Re: Dispersing and tonifying acupuncture points > > I have found the intro text to Japanese Meridian Therapy written by Shudo Denmai to be very useful as well.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hi Doug, Does Shudo Denmai work applicable to a TCM practitioner, since I know that he is a Japanese stye practitioner?

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 I posted my thoughts on this for the original poster to consider what type of acupuncture they plan to undertake and to suggest a text that would help if they were at all interested in Japanese needling. I consider that Japanese practitioners have a great deal of manual expertise with needling and tonification using this technique. This work can be considered important for each and everyone of us.
