	Korean (Koryo) Hand Acupuncture Chart Koryo Hand Therapy is a scientific medical system that is quite simple to learn and easy to perform without any side effects or danger. If you have a problem or pain somewhere in your body, the reactions are reflected on the hands in the form of tender points. Pain commonly or frequently shown on the hands corresponds to the painful part of your body. Therefore, the stimulation of the tender points positively affects pain relief.
	Alarm Points Chart Alarm points are located on the abdomen and chest, they are in close to their related Zang-Fu organ, and may be tender or sensitive if there is disharmony in the underlying organ. Visual examination, obtaining certain reactions when pressing the point or spontaneous sensation at the point are all significant diagnostic information.
