This work is a simple, concise manual of ear acupuncture that explains techniques, ear morphology, and Oriental medical theory, provides case histories to illustrate clinical applicability, specific modalities, and auriculoacupoints, and features detailed a bibliography of nearly 800 book and journal articles. High-quality photos illustrate common ear pathology and include instruction on diagnosis. The text features Chinese clinical energetics of ear acupoints interfaced with the most common diagnostic paradigms. It also contains a detailed discussion of how to construct prescriptions tailored to the patient rather than the disease process. By relying solely on the traditional Chinese ear map rather than a set of complex charts and systems, this approach explains the practical utilization of auricular therapy in a manner that is memorable, clinically useful, and appropriate for students of traditional Chinese medicine.
