Acupoint Treasure 
Last time, we introduce the first part of Restore Youth System, Reflexology Massage Carpet, which mainly functions to enhance the circulation in human body and effect of nerve reflection. However, just promoting circulation is not good enough to make people younger. The second step of Restore Youth System, Acupoint Treasure, is the keypoint to maintain the balance, release the pains and treat the diseases in our body.
Acupoint Treasure is invented based on the ancient Chinese acupuncture therapy which advances the theory that when Yin (feminine energies) and Yang (masculine energies) reach balance, the health is the result.
Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese medicine dated back nearly 3 thousand years, and entered the United States in the 1700' s, but it did not become well known in North America until the mid 1970's. Traditional Chinese Medicine presents the concept that when the body is in balance, which means Yin and Yang do not excess each other, and Chi, the life force energy, flow throughout the body, there is health. Every cell of our body is alive with Chi. Looking in great detail at a cell and examining its structure you find that the very centre of it is energy, a force that is in everything, a force that enables and causes everything to happen.
In the opinion of Traditional Chinese Medicine, when the Chi is disrupted, illnesses and pains occur. The acupuncturists detect and correct imbalance of Chi. Human body is seen as a network of channels connected to the major organs and systems within it. These channels are called meridians. Meridians, the invisible energetic pathways where the chi flows, are mapped on the surface of the body. Meridians conduct regular patterns of physiological activities when the body is functioning in a normal state and systematically reflect symptoms of disease when the body is ill. Along the meridian lines there are acupuncture points, places where we know that we can control the Chi to work creatively with the body and its healing process. There are over 2, 000 acupressure points that connect with the 12 main meridians and 8 secondary meridians on the human body. The acupuncturists stimulate these certain points reached by needles to enable the Chi flow through the body, then pain will be released and diseases will be treated.
Acupuncture and Chi
Acupuncture is a method of touching and using Chi. We can read the quantity and quality of Chi in different parts of the body from twelve pulses which relate to the major organs of the body. Every person has own individual picture revealed through the pulses. The acupuncture points are very tiny places and when you touch them, you feel a tiny sensation under your finger hardly can described by words. Generally people seek acupuncture treatment when they are ill. Illness is a manifestation of an imbalance or disruption of Chi within the person. Poor circulation will first lead to the stagnation of Chi and eventually the stagnation of Blood as well. When Chi and Blood are not flowing freely, and has come to a stop, there will be pain in the area where they accumulate.
If we understand Chi should be balanced, harmonious and flowing within us, then we can see the importance of acupuncture. When Chi is flowing smoothly in our body, it helps the Blood to flow smoothly as well. The work of the acupuncturist is to stop the deterioration, stabilise the energy and then build the Chi to a balanced and abundant state. When you deal with the cause of the problem, the place where the imbalance started, then the body can heal itself.
Therapies of Acupoint Treasure
The Acupoint Treasure combines three therapies to give people a natural healing tool. A) Magnetic Therapy. The human body is made up of electromagnetic vibrations. Magnetic Therapy involves the use of magnetic fields to help activate the body's natural impulses to heal. B) Chinese Acupressure (also known as Shiatsu) Traditional Chinese Medicine is based on the concept that when the body is in balance, yin and yang, health is the result. Any imbalance and disruption to the flow of energy (known as Chi) along meridian pathways can lead to disease. C) Electric Pulse Therapy. This therapy involves the use of electric pulses to temporarily open the membrane barrier to allow molecules to enter the cell. Acupoint Treasure uniquely combines all three of these methods, to provide you with a tool to naturally balance your body and improve your health.
How it works
By pressing the pinpoint of the Acupoint Treasure on the specific acupressure points , it firstly opens the membrane barrier to allow molecules to enter the cell based on the principle of electric pulses. Meanwhile, the magnetic needle activates human body's natural impulses and speed up the blood flow, making the healing process more significant. Finally, human body reaches balance Acupoint Treasure relieves pains and treats various ailments. Using two Acupoint Treasure the same time on two different acupoints or the symmetrical acupoints of the same pinpoint can get better effect.
Acupoint Treasure and Skin R enew al
As a matter of fact, when people get older, their body naturally deteriorates, and skin's cell renewal process becomes less efficient. Tissue repair, cell regeneration and metabolism of the skin all slow down. You feel your skin is beginning to sag, and the wrinkles become deeper and more visible. At the same time, with a percentage of the regular meridians rising to the head, it makes sense that whatever conditions are present in the body will show up on the face along these meridians.
By stimulating specific acupressure points, human body's natural impulses will be activated, and the blood flow is speeded up, which makes the cell healing process more significant. The Metabolism in the skin will be strengthened. The time necessary to repair the stratum corneum barrier will decrease considerably. Underlying muscles become firmer and hold tissues without sagging. Skin tone is improved. The entire face can become more energetic and vibrant.
