Description
The significance of calling this methodology "Acupuncture Core Therapy" is in the way that both the concept and the methodology of the system combine three fundamental elements of the body's vital energy system: the hara, which is the abdominal center of physiological vital force; the spinal energy system, which is the original source of our being and our link with other realms of consciousness; and qi gong, which is development of the body's ability to intentionally store, concentrate and distribute vital force. Dr. Shōji Kobayashi has distilled the essence from traditional teachings on the vital energy system and developed a method of acupuncture treatment that should redefine root treatment (honchihō in Japanese). This work is not a direct translation, but an adaptation of translations from the book by Dr. Kobayashi entitled Shakujyū Chiryō, some of his articles and notes from lectures and discussions. Dr. Kobayashi reassembles the fragments of transmitted teachings and condenses them to their intrinsic core significance. His effort is an endeavor of crucial importance for understanding how to use acupuncture to influence subtle energy. Dr. Kobayashi is quick to note that many practitioners are very successful at evaluation and treatment of patients using a wide array of interpretations of yin-yang and the five phases and applying them to various treatment methodologies. With respect to systems of practice there are clearly a lot of ways to do it right. Those practitioners who do not choose to adopt Dr. Kobayashi's approach to treatment can still benefit in many ways by reading his work. As a result they will maximize the benefits to their patients as they continue to use their present methods of acupuncture and moxibustion.
