Laser Acupuncture


Laser Acupuncture

Acupuncture is one of the main methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). According to its principles, the body passes through the vital energy Qi, following clearly defined pathways (meridians). On these meridians are many ways through which we can influence the flow of Qi. Treatment with traditional acupuncture is to insert thin needles into specific points, this stimulation may remove a blockage of Qi can increase the flow or divert excess Qi. Instead of traditional needles, acupuncture laser uses lasers to stimulate acupuncture points. The depth of penetration into the body of lasers depends on the wavelength used and the power of the device.

An-Mo/Tui-Na

An-MB or Tui-Na therapy is a body of Traditional Chinese Medicine. An-Mo and Tui-Na methods are almost identical. They differ mainly in relation to their regions of origin. Year-Mo comes from northern China, Tui-Na instead of south China. Year-Mo means "press-smooth" and Tui-Na "push-grasp". These words clearly show that in the case of An-Mo, as well as in the Tui-Na, it is mostly a different massage techniques. Depending on the nature of these symptoms, the therapist massages, exerting a pressure greater or less, along the meridians and specific points. To this end, he not only uses his hands, but also the tips of fingers, elbows or feet. We can differentiate slow movements in the opposite direction to clockwise, which promote the intake of energy, and faster movements in the direction of clockwise, intended to divert excess energy.
