Acupuncture Chinese Characters Book

Learn & Recognize TCM Point Names

The Acupuncture Chinese Characters Book is a focused reference and study guide designed to help students and practitioners deepen their understanding of acupuncture point nomenclature through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) character literacy.

Rather than serving as an all-in acupuncture textbook or flashcard memorization drill tool, this book provides structured, logical guidance to help you confidently recognize, read, and internalize acupuncture point names in Chinese, a skill that enhances comprehension, clinical reading fluency, and professional confidence.

What This Book Is Designed For

• Learners who want to strengthen recognition of acupuncture point names in Chinese characters, pinyin, and English

• Support for reading charts, classics, formulas, charts, and clinical texts where original Chinese names are used

• Clinicians and students who want deeper linguistic confidence alongside point location study

• A reference companion while studying points, textbooks, and classical sources

What This Book Is Not

• Not a comprehensive acupuncture textbook covering technique, theory, or clinical strategy

• Not a Q&A flashcard drill system for exam cramming

• Not a digital app or interactive learning platform

What’s Inside

• Helpful visual layout designed to support pattern recognition and memorization

• Reference tables that make reviewing, comparing, and self-testing easy

This book helps connect language familiarity with your acupuncture studies so that point names start to feel natural rather than unfamiliar or fragmented.
