Hara - Abdominal Diagnosis
In Japanese acupuncture and moxibustion, "hara" or abdominal diagnosis takes precedence when evaluating the state of the patient's condition.
An image of the function of the internal organs can be reflected in the abdomen. The information obtained from this analysis is of direct clinical relevance, as it is used for determining treatment points.
The purpose of abdominal diagnosis is not only the identification of physiological imbalances but also observing the changes during and after the treatment.
