Product Description
Review
"This book is an excellent and handy reference for acupuncturists who practice the Nogier style . . . or who is pursuing a training program in [this] style. . . . The illustrations are clear and anatomically precise." - acupuncture.com
Product Description
A novelty to the international market both in concept and realization, this pocket atlas allows the reader to both effectively learn and quickly reference ear acupuncture points. Clear, simple images accompany concise and "to-the-point" texts creating an educational tool for the localization of ear acupuncture points.
The resourcefulness of the book is increased by the inclusion of the projection of the body meridians onto the auricle according to Bahr. Besides, "prescriptions" of point combinations according to some indications are included.
The reader will profit from the extensive international teaching experience of Beate Strittmatter. Through her former teacher, Frank Bahr, who cooperated directly with Dr.Paul Nogier, she stands in the direct tradition of the founder of Western auriculotherapy.

Good as Pocket Size Reference. Includes some unique details less easily extracted from other sources., Mar 27 2010

This review is from: Ear Acupuncture: A Precise Pocket Atlas (Paperback)
This pocket atlas is well organized and I have found it very useful. It has an entirely different style than my two favorities:( Microsystems Acupuncture: The Complete Guide: Ear - Scalp - Mouth - Hand and Auriculotherapy Manual: Chinese and Western Systems of Ear Acupuncture ), but it offers intriguing additional techniques once one is ready to delve more deeply into auricular therapy as its own subdiscipline within the greater domain of acupuncture.It would not have worked well for me as an introductory resource. Once I've had a growing sense of the landscape for auricular therapy in general, then I find there is some additional detail that has been unavailable or more obscure in my other sources. What stood out for me were the uncluttered drawings focusing on just a few inter-related points at a time, the greater detail about Nogier's later ideas, and the specifics of using gold versus silver needles.
Well worth the investment. It's size fills a very practical nitch. The most common books in this field are too big to carry around easily.

What a way to understand Nogier's works!, Mar 31 2007
By A. Orozco "Cursed by love for books" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ear Acupuncture: A Precise Pocket Atlas (Paperback)
I found this book well detailed in a very small and consice form. It is great to carry around and even goes into meridian connections instead of simply organ, skeletal, etc systems. It has great pictures and description on locating points. Great for on the go treatments and time constrain treatments.

Extreme Auricularization, Dec 22 2008
By BLH557 "BLH557" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ear Acupuncture: A Precise Pocket Atlas (Paperback)
Good, thorough workup on auricular acupuncture, based primarily on the European work of Bahr and Nogier. More than your basic point structure but only does a decent job of illustrations. I like Theime's Microsystems illustrations better. Easy to read and correlates well with Terry Ohlson's book. Haven't gotten to the 3-Phase Nogier parts, yet. I purchased this book along with Ohlsen's auricular (a must read) and Theime's and Wang's microsystems texts. Together they cover all of the bases and then some. Definitely a recommend.
