Definition of the Hari System

What is the Japanese Meridian Therapy and Sho/Pattern ?

It is a medical system that grasps all diseases as a condition of deficiency or excess of ki or blood in the meridians, and then uses the techniques of Acu-Moxato tonify or disperse that deficiency or excess in order to bring about healing. It is also known as the zuishō treatment method, which means treatment is given by following the pattern of imbalance (SHO).

Root treatment and deficiency of essential ki

The five organs are in charge of storing the essence, which should not be injured. If the essence is injured, the [body's] defenses will be lost, resulting in yin deficiency. (Ling Shu, chapter 8)As is understood from the above quotations, disease stems from deficiency of essential kiof the five organs.

Characteristics

After or are on the diagnosis, instantaneously treated.Treatment is given by following the pattern of imbalance (SHO)

– Minimize the number of points used in treatment– Period of treatment considerably shortened over

timeStrengthen life force (dignity and harmony of the essential ki)Needles barely inserted or touch. non-insertion with Ki technique

Ki feedback methods by pulse

How to detect abnormal and correct Ki within pulse. It helps practitioners to use pulse diagnosis for more than just identifying a pattern of disease. We will learn how the pulse can be used as a feedback method for assessing the effectiveness of the treatment as it is being given.

The Potency of the Root and Local treatments

Root treatment and local treatment are two sides of the same coin and that they blend together.

The Potency of the Root and Local treatments (2)

Some people think that the root treatment is performed to bring the pulse into order, and that the local treatment is performed to alleviate the symptoms. However, the pulse can be brought into order and the symptoms alleviated just with the local treatment. Conversely, the symptoms can be relieved with just the root treatment, in addition to naturally adjusting the pulse.

The Potency of the Root and Local treatments (3)

The effect of the treatment will last longer if the root treatment and local treatment are combined together, rather than just doing one or the other.
