So cool! Thanks once again for some great info and inspiration. Call me silly, but what are ion pumping cords? Thanks!
Corey Miller, Lac
Not silly at all Corey! Ion pumping cords are used to move Qi in one direction. In Meridian therapy, they're used to move Qi from places where it's excess to places where it's deficient.
I found your video very helpful! I don’t know anything about Accu graph. I will have to look into it
Let me know if you have any questions. It does require training to get good at it, but once you're graphing your patients with ease it provides SO much useful info! And it's a great educational tool for your patients.
Very clear and helpful. Thank you
You're very welcome!!
