  • Method developed by Prof. Bo Zhiyun (since 1991)
  • Gentle needle sensation, rapid and lasting effects
  • Protocols for acute/chronic pain and Zang-Fu disorders
  • For licensed acupuncturists and final-year students

Why Abdominal Acupuncture?

One of the newest approaches in clinical acupuncture. We work within the meridians and points on the abdomen (AMS system) — between Ren 12 and Ren 4 and laterally to Sp 15 — utilizing the holographic "turtle" map. Result: gentle needling with often rapid relief and broad systemic effects.

  • Effective for acute and chronic pain
  • Supports regulation of Zang-Fu organ functions
  • Complementary with other TCM styles and manual medicine

What You'll Gain After Training

  • Diagnostic model and "turtle" mapping for quick clinical decisions
  • Safe, predictable formulas with clear stimulus progression
  • Ready-to-use treatment protocols for spinal pain, limb pain, headaches, and selected organ disorders
  • Ability to combine AA with other techniques (e.g., classical limb points)
