The Course is designed because:
Hypertension is a common chronic disease worldwide. When left uncontrolled for a long time, it can lead to serious health issues such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. In the United States, many people are seeking non-pharmaceutical therapies to alleviate hypertension, and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining attention for its unique regulatory principles and relatively fewer side effects.
Tai Chi Pestle Needle acupoint massage is an ancient TCM therapy that involves massaging and stimulating specific acupoints to help regulate the body's qi and blood circulation, relieve stress, and ultimately lower blood pressure. This course aims to teach participants how to use Tai Chi Pestle Needle tools for acupoint massage in a scientific, safe, and effective manner to manage and alleviate hypertension symptoms.
Though it contains the character "needle," Tai Chi Pestle Needle differs from acupuncture. In Tai Chi Pestle Needle, the needle does not penetrate the skin or muscles, hence no pain is involved. Additionally, there are no concerns about cross-infection. It combines the advantages of acupuncture and massage.
The tools used in Tai Chi Pestle Needle are simple, the acupoints are few, and the operation is easy. It is highly suitable for wide application and can be effectively utilized in home healthcare. With some training, individuals can perform simple Pestle Needle at home.
