History of Amma, Acu-Point Therapy,

I am often asked to describe Korean Acupressure Massage and how it differs from other types of acupressure. My answer is that the system that I practice, Hwe Choon Do In Sul Bup, is a family lineage practice, handed down from father to son for over 500 years. I learned it from the Master Yoo, the last of the lineage holders within his family. This system uses finger pressure to press acu points on the body, stimulating qi circulation, toxin release, and nuture of tissues, joints and organs. This system has much in common with other Asian Bodywork Therapies, such as: Amma, Shiatsu, Jin Shin Jyutsu, and Chinese Acupressure, however I would say that Korean Traditional Acupressure relies more on short and intense pressure over a large number of points during one treatment. Here is an article by Barry Kapke of the San Francisco School of Massage. It explains the history of Asian Bodywork Therapies.
