One topic per page, with a big drawing, four short boxes and the key idea at the bottom. Take a look inside:
Qi, yin and yang, meridians, LI 4, 3 cun below the knee... you have heard the words, but you cannot picture any of them.
...and every book gives you a wall of text and charts you cannot read.
Here, a channel fits on one page: the pathway drawn on the body, the points with their codes and where to find them in cun.
And the box at the bottom tells you the one idea to keep.
First you see it. Then you understand it.
Foundations, the channel map, the twelve channels, the extraordinary vessels, key points, tools and acupressure: 54 pages, all illustrated
Picture this:
Instead of memorizing names, codes and theories with no picture in your head...
...you see the map of the body that acupuncture uses: the channels, the points and the ideas behind them.
And the words of Chinese medicine become things you can picture. You stop guessing and start understanding.
That is exactly what Acupuncture Made Visual does.
It is not “just another PDF”. It is 7 parts and 49 illustrated topics, with practice questions and the answers explained, plus the whole book in 20 facts.
Because what your brain sees organized, it remembers.
What acupuncture is, its history in China and in the United States, qi, blood and fluids, yin and yang, the five phases, the zang-fu organs, what upsets the balance and the four examinations.
The channel system, point names and codes, the flow of qi through the twelve channels, the proportional cun, finger cun and the landmarks on the body.
The twelve channels one per page, with the pathway drawn on the body, the point codes, the key points in cun and the facts to remember, plus practice questions.
The eight extraordinary vessels, the Governing Vessel and the Conception Vessel with their maps and key points.
The five transport points, source and connecting points, back shu and front mu points, the key points of the head, arm and leg, and the areas that call for caution.
Needles, what happens in a session with a licensed acupuncturist, safety and side effects, moxibustion, cupping, electroacupuncture, ear acupuncture, tui na and gua sha.
Acupressure basics, when not to press, a gentle five-minute self-care routine and what the research says.
At the end: practice questions with the answers explained, the whole book in 20 facts and a glossary.
