Scalp acupuncture is a traditional Chinese therapy used to treat hemiplegia, numbness of limbs, and aphasia caused by cerebral thrombosis, cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral embolism by stimulating parts of the scalp corresponding to the cerebral cortex with acupuncture needles. It is effective, simple, convenient and inexpensive.

In this book, Dr. Jiao systematically discusses the principles and techniques of scalp acupuncture along with typical case reports in order to illustrate its therapeutic effects.
