Best book for cures

I follow this book alongside Michael Reed Gach's book, for proper locations of the points, because in JV Cerney's book, it's sometimes difficult to find the acupuncture pts. On my first day of trying the pts. suggested in the book, I worked my pts. for the lung meridian, the next day I was coughing up mucous and phlegm. I love this book. I find out where I am having problems in my body. Love it!

useful though needs better writing

There are countless massage books, but there are few books written in English about using accupressure. This book has too much hyperbole, and I am skeptical of many of its claims. However, I have successfully used some of the accupressure points for relieving pain and migraine. I think the hand drawn diagrams are very useful. The book is heavily influenced by traditional Chinese medicine, but is partially Americanized and I find it far more useful than traditional Chinese textbooks. In summary, this book could be improved, but it is very useful as it is.
