You can enlarge the above illustration by clicking it. I urge you to become very familiar with it. Koryo Hand Therapy is one of the easiest ways to treat yourself or others.
The picture above is from Larry Johnson's book "Magnetic Healing and Mediation," a must have book. The book link is on my link section. Remember if you hurt or have problems anywhere, find the place on the hand that corresponds to the place that hurts or needs attention. Touch and hold that place for a few minutes and feel the pain ease or go away. You do not even have to physically touch the hand. Just hold or move your finger or fingers above the area. It will take some time so do not expect results instantaneously. A clockwise movement will decrease inflammation and ease pain. If you need to strengthen an area move your fingers in a clockwise direction. While you do not have to touch physically to get results, touch is very powerful and healing. I think it is almost always good to massage and press the parts of the hand that reflect to the pain or other problems.
The photos below are of the eight paired or coupled Master Points on the hand as used in the Koryo Hand Therapy paradigm. Below each photo is a list of problems that can benefit by placing your fingers above or on the points for periods of time. Remember, moving your hands or fingers in a counter clockwise direction will decrease inflammation and or pain. If the area is weak and needs strength than move in a clockwise direction. I would urge you to look at and buy Kiko's book Extraordinary Vessels for more detailed information. I recommend her book to all who want to be chi kung healers.
http://www.redwingbooks.com/products/books/ExtVes.cfm I would advise trying to buy it first on Amazon.com it will probably be less expensive there.
Most of the information found below comes from her book. I have had very good results running chi through the points she recommends. I do it for anywhere from five to twenty minutes at a time depending on feedback from the people I am attempting to help. As I have said before, touch and pressure is almost always good. So you can rub and press the Master Points as well and get good things from doing it.
