Very interesting. The reason most Western medical people cannot do acupuncture well is that they try to relate it to the nervous system. If this is widely accepted, it may make good acupuncture more available in the West. The video also mentions tattoo issues that may affect health as well.

Very interesting to say the least. Thanks for sharing. Now let us hope [in that system] they can make a positive connection for relief from arthritis, and many other diseases and conditions.
One thing he said [OK hinted to] I do agree with. I do believe we spend way too much money on all the space travel. etc. When those huge sums could be better spent here on earth in the medical research field.

I saw acupuncture used very successfully in Japan for arthritis and it may be the basis for the newly-discovered system. A woman with what was said to be severe rheumatoid arthritis was pain-free for 2 weeks at a time using acupuncture. When the pain began its return at the end of 2 weeks, the acupuncturist would return and take the pain away. That acupuncturist trained for 5 years and could not practice in the U.S. as she was not a medical doctor (at the time). I remember Nixon being amazed on his visit to China when surgery was done anesthesia-free using acupuncture in the 1960s. After that, acupuncture was done by doctors--and now some chiropractors--but the training is short and they try to base it on the nervous system, not meridians.
