of the body. In Chinese there is a saying, “There is no pain if there is free flow; if there
is pain, there is no free flow.”
Are there different styles of Advanced Acu-point Therapies?
Yes, there are. Acu-point systems originated in China but have spread to Korea, Japan,
Vietnam, Europe, the British Isles, and America. In different countries, different styles have
