What is KHT?
Koryo (Korean) Hand Therapy is a scientific medical system that is quite simple, easy to perform and is without side effects or danger to the patient.
If you have pain or a problem somewhere in your body, the condition will also be mirrored on the hands in the form of tender points.
These tender point frequently correspond directly to the painful part of your body. When these points are stimulated by means of direct pressure, seed magnets or acupuncture needles, the treatment corrects the imbalance, improving function and providing pain relief. The stimulation of the hand is very effective due to the presence of a large number of sympathetic nerve fibers in the hands.
The stimulation of the corresponding points of certain body parts initiates the hand to organ reflex first then the organ to organ reflex. Then it progresses deeper going into the visceral somatic reflexes.
A large number of different human diseases can be treated or cured through the route of the reflex system, and this fact has now been verified by several clinical studies. KHT is very effective in treating a wide range of ailments including infertility, rheumatic arthritis, allergy and stroke but, there are some limits to what it can accomplish.
Clearly, conditions that require surgery and infectious diseases can not be cured using hand acupuncture and should be referred your medical doctor.
Often, KHT treatment can play a useful role by complementing Western Medicine, when treating chronic conditions that do not respond to traditional medical intervention.
KHT greatly contributes to the maintenance of your health and well being as well as making it possible for you to perform self treatment following your therapy session. Self treatment empowers you by allowing you to learn how to care for yourself and your loved ones with this simple yet powerful healing therapy.
