Description

An Introduction to Western Medical Acupuncture, 2nd Edition by Adrian White MA MD BM BCh DipMedAc offers a comprehensive, evidence-based exploration of acupuncture within the framework of modern medicine. This revised and updated edition serves as an essential guide for practitioners, detailing how and where to effectively treat various conditions using acupuncture, while also emphasizing the avoidance of associated risks to promote safe and effective practice. The book features a new chapter dedicated to the nervous system’s processing of pain and how acupuncture can modulate these pathways. It is further enhanced by six chapters that delve into the effects and mechanisms of acupuncture, organized by three key treatment approaches: stimulating local changes, influencing spinal segment effects, and modifying overall nervous system function. Chapters on research evidence have been thoroughly updated. Readers will find a clear explanation of acupuncture’s mechanisms and how needling activates them, alongside principles of treatment that move beyond simplistic ‘cook-book’ methods. The content provides a clear and objective discussion of both the effectiveness and potential risks of acupuncture.
