Counter pain

Live healthy and long

The same guys who were with me in the wake told me that one of the principles of curing among Chinese is to fight pain with pain (counter pain).  This is where acupuncture, acupressure, evolved.

It it is painful, beat the painful part.  Then came the sharp bamboo sticks to insert into the meridien, and later the gold needles.

The practitioner I met prefer to use sharp pencils or ball pen.

The other one prefers sharp finger pressure to the pressure points
