Collateral Meridian Therapy provides particularly suitable treatments for those  who may have needle phobia and children.
Collateral Meridian Therapy (CMT)  is a non-invasive acupressure technique developed by Dr. Shan-Chi Ko, who formulated a mathematical model of 108 acupoints within the 12 collateral meridians essential for alleviating various degenerative symptoms of neurological origin.  Traditional acupuncture utilizes a needle inserted into a single acupoint along one meridian to relieve the obstruction of the vital flow, while CMT manipulates two precisely defined acupoints along two different collateral meridians - one for interconnecting the diseased meridian to the treatment meridian and the other for the treatment of the diseased point in order to bypass the obstruction and restore the body’s vital flow.  

CMT defines vital flow as the elements, such as neurons, electrons, air, blood, lymph, and other bodily fluids, that regulate the flow of bodily energy through multiple conduits.   Obstructions to vital flow can be measured with a neurometer.  Removing the obstructions to vital flow not only relieves pain, but also assists in correcting abnormalities within the internal organs.  The principle of CMT treatment is to remove the obstruction and restore normal vital flow by stimulating pressure points

Collateral meridian therapy (CMT) is derived from the combination of Western medical pathology and oriental theories of I-Ching and Yin Yang five phases.

CMT treatment method doesn't involve medications, injections, needles or contact with the areas of pain. Instead it is applied via laser, electrical stimulation and direct pressure.

CMT has been clinically applied to treat various pain and degenerative symptoms such as sports injuries, frozen shoulders, carpal tunnel syndrome, migraine headache, diabetes, fibromyalgia,Trigeminal Neuralgia  PHN, and RSD/CRPS[1,2]. CMT is effective in pain management and other degenerative symptoms.
