Capping a career that spans over five decades, Shudo Denmei, a leading teacher and authority on Meridian Therapy in Japan, has compiled 160 case studies that are representative of his practice of acupuncture and moxibustion and reflect the way that his practice has evolved.

Fifty Years of Practice: The Case Studies of Shudo Denmei is written as a guide for acupuncturists at various stages in their own practices. Dr. Shudo shares both his successes and failures, challenges and insights. It is a wide-ranging text, covering topics as varied as psychological and musculoskeletal. He reveals the entire process of his treatments from questioning to palpation diagnosis, and then to point selection and insertion technique.

The case studies are organized by categories of disorders and cover practically every type of condition that can be treated with acupuncture: musculoskeletal, circulatory, digestive, respiratory, urogenital, gynecological and others. Based on his deep knowledge of both Western and East Asian medicine, Dr. Shudo discusses the possibilities as well as the limitations of acupuncture and moxibustion. He shares an abundance of knowledge and wisdom with his trademark humor and humanity. This is an inspiring, clinically-oriented memoire of a master practitioner with a lifelong passion for the art of healing.

Review

"A significant part of the readability of Denmei Shudo’s books is the self-effacing charm of his authorial voice. Despite his great skill and experience, he talks to the reader as practitioner to practitioner, without the grandiosity or esotericism to which exponents of traditional East Asian medicine (TEAM) are prone. In particular, the author is humble and honest about his own limitations, as well as those of acupuncture. This kind of information is clinical gold, especially for less experienced practitioners.

Whether or not you share Denmei Shudo’s approach to acupuncture, his curiosity, diligence, rigour, humility and honesty mark him out as an exceptional practitioner and teacher. In a field such as acupuncture, where the subtlety inherent in the qi paradigm, coupled with the diversity of approaches available make deep understanding challenging, the sheer depth of clinical experience distilled into this text makes this book worthy of attention by all acupuncture practitioners."

—Daniel Maxwell, The Journal of Chinese Medicine

Very Good Purchase
Size: 10 Ft, Color: White
I bought this for my fiancee at the time who had several things to plug in, but did not have the space and would keep rotating plugs. This was able to help her organise the place better and charge multiple things at once. She absolutely loves it. It even has ports for phone chargers, which is very useful. The quality is very good as well. Strong and durable and looks good once you take care of it. Can blend in well and it looks good aesthetically.

Are you tired of moving furniture around to find a plug?
Size: 6.5 Ft, Color: Black
I hate moving my room around to find an open outlet, I needed something that had a surge protector because of my gaming computer and I also have a lot of stuff that needs plugged in. This has a lot of plugs, I love that they are spaced out and have the USC and USB at the top. The cord is pretty long so it reaches a good length. It tells you if its not protected by how it lights up when you turn it on. I highly recommend and I would buy this again if I needed another one.

Thin, durable, good plug orientation
Size: 6.5 Ft, Color: Black
This has been great for behind our entertainment center. We have a lot to plug in between floor lamps, tv displays, PlayStations, and pcs. No problems so far and much better than chaining extension cords. Would buy again
