  pressure points in human body: 36 Deadly Bubishi Points Rand Cardwell, 2019-03-26 Learn how to target the weaknesses of an attacker and effectively exploit them in order to defend yourself! The 36 Deadly Bubishi Points explains the pressure point techniques found in the Bubishi, the ancient Bible of Karate, and how recognizing them allows you to defend yourself against such attacks. This book closely examines these vital points and the science behind them, and the author fills a gap in general understanding of how the 36 vital points found in the Bubishi can be targeted using pressure point fighting techniques. While much has been written about the vital points and their medicinal importance, thanks to the popularity of practices such as acupuncture, martial research on the subject has been lacking. Cardwell discusses the vital points from the perspective of an experienced martial artist--including how the body's vital points are related to the 8 extraordinary vessels and 12 meridians which circulate energy throughout the body. Through detailed step-by-step instructions and over 96 photographs and illustrations, The 36 Deadly Bubishi Points shows how this knowledge can be employed in self-defense.
  pressure points in human body: The Power of Pressure Points R. Barry Harmon, 2016-02-29 “This Book introduces martial artists to the most effective and commonly used pressure points”. R. Barry Harmon, License Acupuncturist, 9th Dahn Black Belt in the World Kuk Sool Association Any mistakes in the research or information in this book is the total and complete responsibility of the writer. In no way should any contributors be held responsible for the writer’s opinions or mistakes. This book is meant to help martial artists understand the power, use, and effectiveness of using pressure points for striking and grabbing purposes. This book will cover the most effective, the most common, and the most practical pressure points in martial arts; therefore, I will not cover every single pressure point that is used in martial art, acupuncture or healing. It will also include points or areas that are not regular pressure points but specific common areas that are used for martial art striking or grabbing. I will not be discussing the anatomical or energetic effects of each point when struck but the effects of the strike on the pressure point. In other words, I explain what may happen to the individual when a particular pressure point is hit. It was a very difficult decision to choose how much information to place in this book. The goal of this book is to include enough information to help the reader understand the pressure points and their possibilities. I have tried to avoid overwhelming the reader with more information than most martial artists are interested in studying. That said, I decided to include a little more information than most might be interested in concerning the theories of Ki, Um (Yin) -Yang, Five Elements, Channel theory, and pressure points. This information is specifically included for those martial artists that are interested in a more in-depth study.

  pressure points in human body: Pressure-point Fighting Rick Clark, 2000-04-15 Supplement your martial arts skills with this expert guide to pressure point fighting. Western students of Asian martial arts have long been haunted by the aching suspicion that something is missing from the arts they love and practice wholeheartedly—something intangible, but something so essential that its absence leaves an unbridgeable void. For many, that missing ingredient is a true and thorough knowledge of the body's vital points: what they are, where they are, how to quickly find them under duress, how to use them, constructively or for destruction—and how to recognize them in the kata, hyung, or forms they thought they knew so well. In Pressure Point Fighting, martial arts expert Rick Clark offers a systematic introduction to this knowledge and to the tools needed to ferret out more of this information from forms and techniques already in place—knowledge and tools that are not dependent upon acceptance of the tenets of traditional Chinese medicine, or modern Western medicine, for that matter, but which are based solely on open-minded observation and willingness to try new, or old, approaches to martial arts training.
  pressure points in human body: Bubishi , 2016-05-31 Treasured for centuries by karate's top masters, the Bubishi is a classic Chinese work on philosophy, strategy, medicine, and technique as they relate to the martial arts. Referred to as the bible of karate by famous master Chojun Miyagi, for hundreds of years the Bubishiwas a secret text passed from master to student in China and later in Okinawa. All of karate's legendary masters have studied it, applied its teachings, or copied passages from it. No other classic work has had as dramatic an impact on the shaping and development of karate as the Bubishi. Karate historian and authority Patrick McCarthy spent over ten years researching and studying the Bubishi and the arts associated with it. The first English translation of this remarkable martial arts manual includes numerous explanations and notes. McCarthy's work also includes groundbreaking research on Okinawan and Chinese history, as well as the fighting and healing traditions that developed in those countries, making it a gold mine for researchers and practitioners alike. For the final word on the true origins and spirit of classic Okinawan martial arts, one need look no further. This karate book is one of the best karate training supplements available.

  pressure points in human body: Lowering High Blood Pressure with Acupressure Charles Chan, 2017-10-03 Acupressure is an ancient Chinese healing art developed over 5000 years ago. Similar to acupuncture using needles on the vital energy points of the meridians, acupressure uses only the fingers to massage on the energy points which activates the body to relief the symptoms and to heal itself. Acupressure massage is very effective in lowering high blood pressure, increasing circulation and vitality, relieving pains and aches, reducing stress and is a superb self-treatment for boosting the body immunity. It is a natural healing method and a safe alternative healing modality for treating hypertension and other associated conditions. There are altogether nine easy exercises in the full routine. The exercises are accompanied by well-illustrated pictures for the locations of the acupressure vital points. All you need is to perform the routine once a day. It will take roughly twenty to thirty minutes and the result is instantaneous. You can also monitor your own progress by measuring your blood pressure before and after performing the acupressure massage routine. In most cases, the systolic pressure will become normalised or have a significant drop after performing a basic twenty to a thirty-minute routine. Diastolic pressure will also have a significant drop corresponding to the systolic pressure drop. In the middle section of the book, it looks into the long-term prevention and treatment for hypertension, including tackling all the major risk factors: Your body weightDiet and lifestyleExcessive caffeine intakeExcessive alcohol consumptionInsufficient sleepLong term stressDiabetesMedication or oral contraceptivesCardiovascular health The final chapter looks into the strategies of eliminating high blood pressure and its associated illnesses for good using healthy regiment and natural healing methods including: Performing acupressure dailyExamine your diet and learn to eat less and eat wiselyExercise to strength your cardiovascular system and to keep your body weight normalOvercome stress and make changes in your life where necessary.

  pressure points in human body: Death Touch Michael Kelly, 2001-11-01 The martial arts world is rife with tales of ancient masters who could cause instant or delayed death or illness by attacking secret points on the human body. But to the Western mind, the concept of striking acupuncture points to disrupt the internal energy, or chi, seems like hocus-pocus. Thus, many serious martial artists dismiss the ancient art of dim-mak (also known as kyusho jitsu), which is literally translated as death touch, as nothing more than fiction. However, if one can accept the idea that a dim-mak point is an avenue for attacking the nervous system, then it becomes easier to understand how striking specific points or groups of points can devastate the organs and the cardiovascular system. In this book, Dr. Michael Kelly, an osteopathic physician and experienced dim-mak practitioner, explains dim-mak's effects based on medical science. In layman's terms, Dr. Kelly reveals the physiological basis for what is clearly a very real and dangerous method of fighting. In the process of unraveling the mystery of this legendary art, Dr. Kelly makes the true genius of its founders brutally, and painfully, apparent.

  pressure points in human body: WHO Standard Acupuncture Point Locations in the Western Pacific Region , 2008-06-05 Acupuncture has been practiced for more than 2500 years in the Western Pacific region and has become a global therapeutic method in recent decades. However, it was reported that acupuncturists differed by up to 25% in the acupuncture points they used, raising doubts and uncertainty regarding the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment, as well as causing difficulties in the fields of acupuncture research and education. Member States therefore increasingly began to demand standardization in acupuncture point locations. Responding to this request, the WHO Western Pacific Regional Office initiated a project to reach consensus on acupuncture point locations and thus convened 11 serial meetings resulting in these guidelines. This Standard acupuncture point locations in the Western Pacific Region stipulates the methodology for locating acupuncture points on the surface of the human body, as well as the locations of 361 acupuncture points. The Standard is applicable for teaching, research, clinical service, publication, and academic exchanges involving acupuncture.

  pressure points in human body: Introduction to Acupressure & Qigong Ram Babu Sao, 2025-05-20 This book, “Introduction to Acupressure & Qigong” provides you with the gist of most of the topics on acupressure in detail. The origin of acupressure is very ancient and it was discovered that pressing certain points on the body relieves pain and stress, and heal diseases and also benefits other parts of the body. The Chinese have practiced acupressure to keep themselves well and happy. You, too, can learn and help your body relieve itself of common ailments by pressing the proper spots. Acupressure is a way to help your body fight back many health problems like stress, pain, numbness; headaches; heaviness in the head; dizziness; ringing in the ears; stiff shoulders arising from disorders of the autonomic nervous system; constipation; sluggishness; chills of the hands and feet; insomnia; malformations of the backbone frequent in middle age and producing pain in the shoulders, arms, and hands; pains in the back; pains in the knees experienced during standing or going up or downstairs; tension, the balance of emotions, anxiety, grief, other emotional imbalances and diseases that can be relieved with acupressure. Acupressure points can be used to enhance many aspects of life, such as managing stress, relieving and preventing sports injuries, improving muscle tone, and blood circulation, relieving neuromuscular problems, and a beauty treatment like improvement of skin condition and toning and relaxing the facial muscles, which can lessen the appearance of wrinkles without drugs. However, acupressure is not a substitute for medical care; it is often an appropriate complementary treatment. The Acupressure points are located between the shoulder blades, the spine at the level of the heart, the soles of one's feet and palms, and all over the body. Patients with life-threatening diseases and serious medical problems, such as a stroke or heart attack, or any serious medical condition, should always consult their doctor and take treatment before using acupressure therapies. Acupressure is not an appropriate sole treatment for cancer, contagious skin diseases, or sexually transmitted diseases, but in conjunction with proper medical attention, however, gentle acupressure can help soothe and relieve a patient's distress and diseases.
