Ayurvedic Acupuncture is based upon the Suchi Veda, a 3,000 year old Vedic text which, in the Ayurvedic system, is the Science of Acupuncture. It has been practiced as an accessory therapy since it was used in conjunction with other forms to effect healing. It belongs more correctly to the branch of surgery, one of the eight medical discplines of Ayurveda.
Dr Ros' book is extremely readable and very practical.
He shows how acupuncture can easily be understood in terms of Ayurvedic medicine. Almost any acupuncturist can use the book to incorporate an Ayurvedic point of view into his or her own practice. Similarly, Ayurvedic students can use the book to incorporate Acupuncture in their study and practice of Ayurvedic. He has established the main translation of terms between Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine, which itself is useful in attempts to correlate these two systems on all levels.
