For a quick and effective approach to curing diseases, the pulse diagnosis* method is introduced before treatments. There is an old saying "a life can be found in single breath". The treatments performed are based on the therapist's ability to sense "life in the pulse" of the body.

* Pulse Diagnosis - the therapist touches the patient's wrist on both arms with 3 fingers to assess the patient's pulse wrist on the both arms with 3 finger tips of the therapist to assess the patient's pulse. Each pulse touch point is related to a specific organ. The therapist can sense the condition of each organ in this manner.
