Description
Traditional Chinese tui na, one of the earliest medical treatment methods with a long history tracing back to ancient times, is an important component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This book is compiled with the aim of popularizing tui na modality along with allowing readers to understand and master the fundamental theories, basic techniques, commonly used acupoints and parts, and diagnosis and treatment methods of diseases in a relatively short period of time. The book is a summary of clinical experiences of tui na with practical contents and detailed illustrations, which can be easily appreciated and serve both purposes of the popularization of tui na and advancement in this field. The book introduces 25 common maneuvers including manipulations in children, more than 70 common diseases with diagnostic, treatment, and preventive methods, and some 240 images illustrating acupoints, maneuvers, examination, and treatment methods in order to facilitate study and learning. The formal arrangement totals 14 weeks, with two days of extra content, adding up to one hundred days. Lastly, the book has appended four indices: Common Tui Na Acupoints and Areas, Common Tui Na Maneuvers, Common Examinations, and Common Applicable Diseases and Symptoms. After completion of the book, readers will be able to understand the main essence in the discipline of tui na and dispel the stereotypical view that tui na can only treat pains and movement disorders. The correct concept should be established so that it can be applied to a variety of diseases in internal medicine, external medicine, gynecology, and pediatrics in clinical practice. In addition, the readers will have built a solid foundation for a further and more in-depth grasp of the discipline.Contents: Week 1: Day 1: A Brief History of Tui Na Day 2: Fundamental Knowledge of Tui Na Day 3: Meridians, Collaterals, and Acupuncture Points Day 4: Circulation Pathways of the 14 Meridians and Vessels Day 5: Commonly Used Shu Xue (Acupoints), Part I Day 6: Commonly Used Shu Xue, Part II Week 2: Day 1: Commonly Used Shu Xue, Part III Day 1: Commonly Used Extraordinary Non-Meridian and Non-Vessel Points Day 2: Common Diagnostic Methods for Tui Na Examination of the Upper Extremities Day 3: Examination of the Lower Extremities Day 4: Examination of the Torso Day 5: Examination of the Neurological System Day 6: Anatomy of Normal Bones and Joints Under X-rays Week 3: Day 1: Tui Na for Adults Day 2: Rubbing Day 3: Twiddling Day 4: Smearing Day 5: Lateral Striking with Palms Clasped Day 6: Rotating Week 4: Day 1: Tui Na Treatment for Adults Day 2: Hypertension Day 3: Stomachache Day 4: Gastroptosis Day 5: The Common Cold Day 6: Chronic Bronchitis Week 5: Day 1: Coronary Heart Disease Day 2: Diarrhea Day 3: Constipation Day 4: Chronic Cholecystitis Day 5: Sequelae of Gastric Surgery Day 6: Polyneuritis Week 6: Day 1: Facial Neuritis Day 2: Dysmenorrhea Day 3: Acute Mastitis Day 4: Shoulder Periarthritis Day 5: Humeral Epicondylitis Day 6: Stenosing Tenosynovitis Week 7:ul> Day 1: Ganglion Cyst Day 2: Ischemic Contracture of the Forearm Muscles Day 3: Distal Radioulnar Joint Injury Day 4: Peripheral Nerve Injury Day 5: LàoZhĕn (Acute Stiff Neck) Day 6: Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction Week 8: Day 1: Cervical Spondylosis Day 2: Sudden Hypochondriac Burst Injury Day 3: Acute Lumbar Soft Tissue Injury Day 4: The Third Lumbar Transverse Process Syndrome Day 5: Degenerative Lumbar Spondylitis Day 6: Kidney Deficient Lumbago Week 9: Day 1: Lumbar Disc Herniation Day 2: Ankylosing Spondylitis Day 3: Juvenile Kyphosis Day 4: Spondylolysis and Spondylolisthesis Day 5: Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Day 6: Osteitis Condensansilii Week 10: Day 1: Developmental Lumbosacral Abnormalities Day 2: Superior Cluneal Nerve Injury Day 3: Piriformis Syndrome Day 4: Suprapatellar Bursa Hematoma Day 5: Medial Collateral Ligament Injury Day 6: Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome Week 11: Day 1: Rheumatoid Arthritis Day 2: Hemiplegia Day 3:...
