The Chinese authors have collated a wide range of difficult and complex cases and the treatments used to remedy them. This is an invaluable source book for the Western practitioner who does not have the opportunity to learn at first hand from Chinese experience. Each case history is analysed in detail and the method of treatment, and its criteria for selection explained. The book concentrates on more difficult cases because this is where the experience of others has most to teach. The contents list below details the various regions and conditions covered in the book.

Tuina or Chinese Therapeutic Massage has made a major contribution over thousands of years to the health of the people of China and neighboring countries. It is an important component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
 
As a manual therapy, Tuina is easy to perform, convenient, inexpensive, safe and effective, so it has become more and more popular not only with medical practitioners, but with the patients themselves, both in and out of China.
 
The seventh volume of this series focuses on practical applications of Tuina therapy. It is a broad introduction to the art of Tuina. It gives -amongst others- a general overview of Tuina including its theory, characteristics, indications, contradictions and the locations and indications of commonly used points.
