Written by widely respected acupuncture expert Yun-tao Ma, PhD,
LAc, Biomedical Acupuncture for Sports and Trauma Rehabilitation
shows techniques that will enhance athletic performance, accelerate
recovery after intensive workouts, and speed trauma rehabilitation
after injuries or surgeries. Evidence-based research is used to
support the best and most effective techniques, with over 100
illustrations showing anatomy, injury, and clinical procedures.
Unlike many other acupuncture books, this book uses a Western
approach to make it easier to understand rationales, master
techniques, and integrate biomedical acupuncture into your
practice. Unique! Explores acupuncture treatments for sports
injuries in the acute phase, rehabilitation, and prevention.
Includes acupuncture for performance enhancement and injury
prevention, emphasizing pre-event acupuncture used to help increase
muscle output, assist with pre-competition stress, and prevent soft
tissue injury. Provides evidence-based research to show the science
behind the best and most effective techniques, based on the
author's background in neuroscience and cell biology and his 35
years of clinical acupuncture experience. Offers an overview of the
science of biomedical acupuncture including the mechanisms of
acupuncture, anatomy and physiology of acupoints, and discussion of
human healing potential. Uses terminology and concepts familiar to
Western-trained health professionals, making the material easier to
understand and incorporate into practice. Includes more than 100
illustrations showing anatomy, injury, and clinical procedures.
Covers useful techniques including those that increase muscle force
output, joint flexibility and stability; prevent sports injuries
like muscle sprain, tendonitis, bone strain, stress/fatigue
fracture and bone spurs; reinforce muscle output for specific
sports; normalize physiology of dysfunctional soft tissues; predict
treatment response; reduce physiological stress; use the new Vacuum
Therapy for deep tissue dysfunctions; and balance the biomechanics
of musculoskeletal system.
