The Channels of Acupuncture. First edition

his, ‘The Channels of Acupuncture’, is Giovanni’s latest book. The focus is upon the Luo, Muscle and Divergent secondary channels, the Cou Li and Huang membranes, and the Eight Extraordinary Channels in addition to the Main Channels. However, over a third of the book is dedicated to the Eight Extraordinary Channels providing the reader with the most in-depth information available in the English language. Giovanni gives unique insights from his 33 years of clinical practice combined with an unparalleled and detailed interpretation of the classical texts. With his trademark, crystal clear writing style and superb colour drawings, Giovanni illuminates the pathways, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of all the channels. Giovanni brings to life the use of acupuncture points according to the dynamics of the Qi in the channel system, not just the use of points according to their function. To give an example: LIV-3 Taichong may be selected for its function of moving stagnant Liver-Qi. However, combining it with LI-4 Hegu achieves a balance of Yin and Yang, alongside a balance of arm and leg channels. When moving Qi, a combination of arm and leg points boosts the Qi-moving effect of the points. Therefore, LIV-3 is seen in both the context of its function and the Qi dynamics of the channel system.
