Toyohari practitioners use non-insertive and specialised needle techniques, unique to this acupuncture style. The treatment is therefore very gentle and non-invasive. Since the treatment is pain free and non-invasive, it is particularly suited to children as well as anyone who is wary of needles.
A specific characteristic of Toyohari is its focus on gently influencing the flow of the Qi (often translated as vital energy) using these delicate techniques.
The policies of the Toyohari Association (based in Japan) ensure that Toyohari acupuncture remains a dynamic and relevant living tradition through continuous re-examination and re-evaluation of its diagnostic and treatment techniques.
