Channels and Acu-points is a hands-on reference guide for students and practitioners of bodywork, physical therapy, chiropractic medicine, physiotherapy, and a range of other health-related fields. A companion to the popular The Concise Book of Muscles, the book features detailed color illustrations of acu-points and primary channels (meridians) of energy (qi) throughout the human body. The unique, lay-flat binding allows readers to easily follow along and practice the movements outlined. A wealth of straightforward, jargon-free treatment information is included on each page, including entries on deep channel pathways and musculocutaneous branches for each channel. Color-coding of acu-points and overall clarity of presentation put a wealth of knowledge at the fingertips of lay readers, students, and practitioners alike.
