📍 ACUPUNCTURE POINTS, ACUPOINTS & ACUPRESSURE

An atlas of acupuncture points and meridian theory: the twelve primary meridians and the eight extraordinary vessels, each with its pathway and function.

For every point: exact location, function, category (Source, Luo, Xi-Cleft, Influential, Command) and clinical use. The point locator finds any of them by name, meridian or symptom.

Acupressure is the needle-free complement: the same meridian map applied by hand. Pressure points for back pain, neck pain, knee pain, headache, sleep, digestion, bloating and constipation are flagged for daily self-care.

Microsystems with their own charts: ear (auriculotherapy), scalp, hand, abdomen and face.

🌿 CHINESE HERBS, FORMULAS & CHINESE NUTRITION

A complete profile for every herb: taste, temperature, organ and meridian entry, functions, category, dosage and preparation. Categories run from releasing the exterior and clearing heat to draining dampness and tonifying Yin and Yang.

How herbs combine in classic formulas: the Chief, Deputy, Assistant and Envoy roles, the logic behind every formula in Chinese herbal medicine.

Chinese dietetics applies that logic to the plate: the energetic nature of each ingredient and which foods suit a pattern.

👅 TONGUE DIAGNOSIS, PULSE READING & ZANG FU

Tongue — colour, shape and coating, with the regional map: tip → Heart and Lung · middle → Spleen and Stomach · rear → Kidney · sides → Liver and Gallbladder.

Pulse — floating, deep, rapid, slow, slippery, wiry, tight, choppy, weak, empty, full and fine, with the three wrist positions and their organs.

The Eight Principles and Zang Fu syndromes tie the signs into a pattern, and 18 clinical cases let you practise reading one from start to finish.

☯️ YIN, YANG, QI & FIVE ELEMENTS

Yin Yang theory: opposition, interdependence and transformation, with the deficiency and excess patterns of each. Qi types (Yuan, Zong, Ying, Wei) and its pathologies — deficiency, stagnation, rebellious Qi — with Blood, Body Fluids and Essence.

The Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) organize all of TCM: paired organs, emotion, season, tissue and colour, with the generating (Sheng) and controlling (Ke) cycles.

Body constitutions explain why the same complaint reads differently in each person: brain fog, low energy, PMS and period pain, a blocked sinus, tinnitus, a common cold that never clears, a fragile immune system or menopause.

🧘 QIGONG, GUA SHA, MOXIBUSTION & CUPPING

Qigong expresses TCM principles through movement and breath: Ba Duan Jin (the Eight Brocades), Wu Qin Xi, Liu Zi Jue and Yi Jin Jing, with the theory of cultivating qi energy for natural healing, holistic health.

External therapies, each with its own guide: gua sha for body and face, moxa therapy, cupping and tui na massage.
