Dr. Ma's Clinical Point Selections |
Dr. Xiu Ling Ma is one of the instructors at Emperor's College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Santa Monica California. She recently arrived in the USA from the People's Republic of China and has done a wonderful job of truly enriching the educational experience of her students.
This chapter of Acupuncture.com represents the notes that she wrote in order to instruct young acupuncturists as to which points are appropriate to which diseases, and best of all, why.
There were certain acupoints that came up frequently at the beginning of the class, and at this time, a more full explaination of the therapeutic actions of these points were given. Most of the reasons given for each point chosen is listed on the document called Therapeutic Explainations.
We hope that you'll get as much out of these notes that we did.
