When the train comes to a stop a new adventure would begin. Sun was returning to their grandparents for another summer. Expectations were high. They wanted to explore how the channels and the acupuncture points on them worked. Written in an accessible, story-telling format in the context of a child, Sun, visiting their grandparents and having lessons over afternoon tea, this book targets practitioners looking to go beyond the foundations to acquire a deeper understanding of Chinese medicine theory, philosophy, and concepts. This is the second book in the series and focuses on distal needling techniques and Unified Acupuncture Theory as well as Dr Richard Tan's Balance Method, Master Tung acupuncture and Japanese Manaka acupuncture styles. Along with an overview of the theoretical basis for holography, it also presents a logical explanation of the channel interaction systems and covers how they can be applied in practice.
