The Beginner's Guide to the Eight Extraordinary Vessels Reviews

Dr. Johanison's work is that rare combination of clarity for the beginner with ideas that invite more advanced exploration. Her book is a clear, well-structured guide to working with these mysterious vessels. I appreciate her view of physical work with the 8 extraordinaries while still maintaining a deep respect for physical, spiritual and emotional issues. I have also benefitted personally from this approach to 8 extras treatment in ways that are still unfolding, years later. Despite a rough period in my life, my resilience has never been better thanks to the 8 extras work with Dolma. -- Samantha L. Francis, D.Ac, L.Ac., Dipl. Acu. (NCCAOM)

This engaging clinical guide is clear, concise, and complete yet also rich, comprehensive, and profound. Dolma captures the esoteric while keeping it user friendly and accessible. This book will serve as a valuable and thorough resource for acupuncturists throughout their career.
