People in daily life may sometimes suffer from soft tissue injury or, even worse, dislocation of joints or fractures with muscle and tendon injuries. Such injuries often cause great pain and inconvenience and need prompt treatment, otherwise, they may cause complications resulting in lifelong infirmity.
Fortunately, traditional Chinese maneuver therapy has proved especially effective in curing bodily injuries. Doctor Xu Mengzhong, as an orthopedist and sports medicine authority, has written his monograph based on his knowledge of human anatomy and over 30 years of clinical practice. In this book doctor Xu provides a systematic introduction to the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and unique Chinese traditional therapy for various traumatic injuries. His book is concise and practical, and the illustrations included for the manipulative procedure and the acupoints make it easy to use.
