| Basic Su Jok The human body is classified into the trunk as its center and the five appendages to the trunk. The fact that the hand has five fingers attached to the palm gives it a strong resemblance to the body. |

| The Body Su Jok Points The trunk : Palm The head and Neck : Thumb Two hands : Index finger and the Little finger Two feet : Middle finger and the Ring finger Front body : Palm Back Body : Back of the hand As mentioned, the remarkable feature of Su Jok is astonishing simplicity. The only thing is that the corresponding nerve points as per Su Jok and the actual affected area should match on each and every occasion. After a little practice your fingers move automatically to the corresponding point and you can start applying the pressure. After a particular time of working at one's own skills, it takes a few seconds to identify the problematic point. In fact having tried a number of experiments, Su Jok therapy is accurate and effective. And if a health problem is of recent origin, say a stomach ache, pain due to a recent accident, sprain etc. Su Jok gives virtually instant relief. Where spinal chord and other chronic problems are concerned, SuJok, if done religiously, certainly gives relief. It seems very likely too that if both basic SuJok and the advanced version i.e acupressure and acupuncture are combined miracles take place. Correspondence |

| As the arms have the wrist, elbow and shoulder, the legs have the ankle, knee and the hip, similarly the fingers, which are corresponding points in Su Jok, have three joints. So where Su Jok points are concerned, till the wrist, is the tip of the outer fingers, from the wrist to the elbow it will be the middle of the finger (between the first and the third joint / line of the finger) and the shoulder will be the last part of the finger, that attaches the fingers to the palm. Similarly the two sections of the neck and head can be easily associated with the two joints of the thumb. The top part of the thumb just near the nail being the head, till the first joint of the thumb corresponding to the face and the second joint corresponding to the throat. The back of the thumb correspondence to the back of the head and the second joint correspondence to the neck. Of course there are other body correspondence systems in Su Jok like the Insect Correspondence, Bowling Pin Correspondence, Mini Correspondence, United Closed Correspondence system, Open United system etc. They involve needles, seeds, magnet points, elastic rings, laser system etc. But the fact is that the basic correspondence system requires nothing more than one's own fingers and at the most a rounded stick to find the point to give the pressure. Su Jok - The Two Dimensional System Physical Dimension Either fingers or a pointed object is used to identify the corresponding point of the body and then massage that point till relief is achieved. Thus fingers, pointed and rounded object, metallic rings, magnetic stars, seed etc. are used. This is more of acupressure than acupuncture. This system can be practiced by virtually anybody as it requires no major skill or instrument. Metaphysical Dimension This systems makes use of Byol meridians. This form of treatment applies the experience and theories of classical acupuncture correlating them with the new theories of Su Jok such as Six Ki (Energy) Constitution; Emotional Constitution and their treatment formula to treat the Byol Meridians and Byol Points. This method of Su Jok requires professional training and mainly is used by professional Su Jok physicians. |
