Comes in handy

Nice little carry along pocket reference book. Reader should be somewhat familiar with the locations of the points but it served me well already when I flew to England recently.

Acupoint Pocket Reference

Very helpful, not only for a martail arts, but also for those who are interested in natural health alternatives.

Handy for your first clinic classes

When you're just starting clinic classes and desperately trying to remember where GB-34 is, this book will save you. Unlike other reference guides, this one fits very neatly and comfortably into your lab coat pocket and it's also quick and easy to thumb through. Only the most commonly used points are listed, so don't expect a comprehensive list. You're not likely to find DU-1 or Yuye in here. I found this approach to be quite practical in the clinic because it kept the book size small and made it quick to find what I needed. However, after one or two semesters, you will very likely outgrow this book, so you'll need to decide whether it's worthwhile for you.

Small but beautiful

A pocket guide that is well layed out and the print size is good so it's easy on the eyes. The contents page allows fast access to specific meridian channels. The diagrams and the explanations of individual points are neat, concise and an exellent aid memoire. Overall this publication is well worth its price.
