It outlines many key challenges that relate to the nature of acupuncture and the gap between current research evidence and actual clinical experience. It details a range of strategies aiming to develop an integration of the very best of evidence-based medicine with a sensitivity to the unique disciple of acupuncture, from its traditional and holistic roots to its more modern interpretations.
