KHT: KOREAN HAND THERAPY a complete energy medicine system in your hands KHT combines the simplicity of reflexology with the sophistication of 3000 years of Oriental Acupuncture Medicine.
Today, hundreds of thousands worldwide practice KHT ... both on others and on themselves.
Korean Hand Therapy is a system for awakening the body to health and wellness through your hands. By stimulating specific points on your hands, you can resolve pain and balance internal organ function.
KHT includes the reflexology level of treatment, similar in concept to the reflexology of the foot. The KHT reflex map of the hand was discovered in 1971 by Dr. Tae-Woo Yoo, O.M.D., Ph.D. in Korea and has been clinically and experimentally tested for accuracy.
KHT also includes the entire acupuncture meridian energy system, but in miniature, on the hands. This addition to the reflex system gives hand therapy many treatment options, as explained below.
STIMULATING POINTS in KHT is done with point massage, tiny tape-on metal acu-pressure pellets, through an infrared heat device, miniature acupuncture needles, lasers and electrical stimulation.
GREATER HEALING EFFECTIVENESS in the KHT system is possible because the entire acupuncture system found on the whole body is also found in miniature on the hands. This means that you can add the healing power of acupuncture principles to the basic KHT hand reflexology system.
