Healing with Pressure Points - Balance

The first thing I will mention here is that really success with the science of pressure point self defense means balance. When are are constantly activating pressure points and meridians on your training partner you are doing damage. The damage often times does not show right away either. It can take hours, days or even weeks to appear. 

If you take your training seriously this mean that a lot of emotional energy is put into your work. And that energy can at times be very negative too! Why this this? Because we are human and frustration comes in when we train. 

And since we are activating pressure point, some of which are important energy centers we leave traces of this negativity behind. Not to mention the negativity of the pain the Uki will experience.  Therefore for balance sake, we need to heal the partner or Uki

Healing with Pressure Points - The Uki

Keeping your training partner healthy is a must if you want him or her to continue to work with you. Over the years I have seen some very overzealous practitioners who others just do not wish to work with. Most people have to go to work the next day! Therefore fixing the damage you do is a must!

As you train and begin to MASTER the science of pressure point self defense we call Kyusho Jitsu you begin to "Stack" together the various principles, theories and concepts of Kyusho with other more ambiguous theories like the Kyusho Jitsu Directional Energy Theory. And when you do the results are amazing! 

So what are you stacking with Kyusho Jitsu Direction Energy? One of the basics, the Cycle of Destruction. 

Kyusho Jitsu Directional Energy - Breakdown

So how does this work? If my back is to the North, then "water" energy is flowing through me, to the Uki or attacker. Therefore I can use this, in the Cycle of Destruction against their fire. If my back is to the North then I begin the altercation with 3 elements present for my usage. 

The attacker has, or is in "Fire" if their back is to the South, I can quench their fire with this water energy also. But I am sure you are seeing what I am driving at! 

This is all very simple on the surface, but very hard to apply! However not impossible! 

Kyusho Jitsu Directional Energy - How I have used It

How close have you watch my knockouts on video? Have you ever seen me have the Uki turn around in the line? Whenever I am tired, and most of those older videos were filmed after 8:30 pm, or I am expecting a difficult time with the knockout I will make sure my back is to the North! Unless I am looking for a different effect!

What other principles can you stack with this one? Anything "Cycle of Destruction" based is the best place to begin! These are "stances" "colours" "Sound" and Alarm Points to name a few!

Sometimes there are arts within other arts. And when it comes to the science of pressure point self defense Kyusho Jitsu Body Typing is an art within an art. This is a very advanced principle and one of the most difficult to do with accuracy. 

But if you can figure it out. You will discover the "POWER" that lies in this understanding. 

As I know you are aware in Kyusho Jitsu we deal with the ancient 5 Element Theory. What this means is that every person is obviously comprised of each of the 5 elements. However each person has a "predominance" of what particular element. And once you can accurately and quickly perform a Kyusho Jitsu Body Typing you can apply the Cycle of Destruction and increase your effectiveness. 

Kyusho Jitsu Body Typing Breakdown 

i can tell you from the onset that it is beyond the scope of a single article to teach you how to do this. Today I will give you an outline, and you see how you do with it. But I will tell you some people are easy. While others are very difficult. And today with the obesity epidemic is is harder than ever to be accurate. 

So lets take look.

First we will look at the fire person. Now I am a fire person. But I hide it well with a beard. In this article I am only going to discuss the "physical" attributes, not the personality, which is also part of the equation.

When you have become proficient with the basics, things like the 15 Principles of Kyusho Jitsu then these Special Purpose Pressure Points will make more sense. Everything ties at some level into everything else. 

There are 361 Pressure Points on the human body. Each with their own function and purpose. Some pressure points have more than one function. And these are the types of pressure points I will be discussing in today's article. 

Special Purpose Pressure Points - Underlying Indicator Pressure Points

The first on my list today is what are referred to as "Underlying Indicator Points." When you understand these pressure points it opens up a Parthenon of possibilities for you. So what are these?

Special Purpose Pressure Points - Confluent Pressure Points

The next on the list is the Confluent Pressure Points. These pressure points for Kyusho Jitsu have a very powerful and important effect.  When activated they will cause a weakness to occur in a certain area of the body. Thereby making the area much easier to attack, and the subsequent damage greater. 

Special Purpose Pressure Points - Influential Pressure Points

This is another group of very interesting pressure points. These points when activated affect certain meridian and organ groupings. The points in these cases are activated by contact, but once contact is removed, the affect is gone also. 

This group of 4 pressure points not only has an effect on the meridian, but will cause illness under certain circumstances to an entire group of organs. An example is LV-13 which influences the health of all the Yin organs of the body. This is a very powerful pressure point that has a delayed affect on the body. Perfect in Dim Mak setups. 

Special Purpose Pressure Points - Collateral Pressure Points

The final set of pressure points in this grouping of Special Purpose Pressure Points are the Collateral Pressure Points. 

There are 15 total and these have an important relationship to the 24 Hour Diurnal Cycle as well as Yin - Yang. This makes them VERY powerful for Kyusho Jitsu usage, but they are not easy to understand without a solid foundation in the basics. 

As an example LV-06 connects directly to the Lung Meridian. This follows the 24 Hour Diurnal Cycle, as well as the Kyusho Jitsu Principle of Yin and Yang. Can you guess the result of activation? 

Now I am wonder have I been clear in this article? Do you get the basic idea of what I am talking about? Comment here!

And all of these pressure points are covered in my eBook Kyusho Pressure Point Anatomy. It is truly the Gray's Anatomy of Kyusho Jitsu. Thank you for taking time to read Special Purpose Pressure Points.

So when you think about a meridian you ask yourself the question. "What is the element?"

Which element is being used to attack which meridian within this cycle.

Novice E.P.S:  The Polarity

Here is a breakdown of polarity

Novice E.P.S: Striking Action

Because of the above information each meridian also has a "best method" of attack! What is the correct striking action? These striking actions are slapping, vibrating, chopping, penetrating and grasping.

Therefore using acronyms like this are a big aid in teaching and successful learning!

At the advanced level this is not always necessary. But it really does come in handy! So how about I break this entire acronym down for you. Remember this is all in reference to meridians.

So my question today. Did you know about EPS before you read the article? Comment with a Yes or No! I hope this help explain the idea behind Kyusho Pressure Point EPS and how it works in helping you develop a STRONG and clear understanding of how pressure points work.

Let's really get into this.

Kyusho Attack Along Meridian - Beginner

For the beginner the results you would be looking for is one that is "predictable". As an example if someone grabs your wrist and you strike LU-06 this will cause a release of the grip to your hand, as the attackers hand will open. The pain level they experience will vary with how tightly they were hold your hand. 

Secondary reaction is the head coming forward and the front leg knee bending. Naturally this effect requires a decent strike using 2 Way Action. Below is a short video example of using this pressure point LU-06 with Kyusho Attack Along Meridian.

This effect can be further intensified if I was to strike LU-01 first. Now LU-01 is a VERY dangerous pressure point for several reasons. One of which is it an Alarm Point. However the example is all I am looking for here. 

Plus if I hit LU-01 on the other side of the body, the effect will be even more intense!

Kyusho Attack Along Meridian - Deeper Look

Here is another example. This is not necessarily an example valid for street usage, just how the principle works. 

You have a hold on the index finger. Stimulating Pressure Point LI-01 [Large Intestine]. Next to use a knuckle and strike into Pressure Point LI-20, which is the far end of the meridian. Following this will a strike to LI-10 will bring the Uki to their knees. The arm will become numb and it will be very difficult to open and close the hand.

This effect can last up to 20 minutes. So in other works you can effectively take the attackers arm out of the equation for up to 20 minutes when this principle is used correctly! 

Kyusho Attack Along Meridian in Conclusion

 While Governor Vessel is the primary source of all YANG energy in the body.

Both Vessels run up the center-line of the body with their origins in the groin area. Both flow up towards the head and come together in the mouth. This flow of energy is referred to as the "minor microcosmic orbit."

Pressure Point Conception 17 - Alarm Point CV-17

Being an Alarm Point in this case and its relationship to the heart also makes Pressure Point Conception 17 a very important Dim Mak Pressure Points as it can be used for delayed death touch.

Pressure Point Conception 17 - Effects

As I have stated this is a VERY dangerous pressure points. The first reason is that the sternum can be broke very easily! Death can result from this breakage. This has happened many times in situations like car accidents.

Striking this pressure point will cause an activation of the pericardium meridian bi-laterally on the body. And it will also cause a bilateral activation of all the rest of the Yin Meridians as well. A hard strike can cause the heart beat to be disrupted, which in someone with a heart issues could be deadly. A solid strike can cause cardiac arrest.

Hitting Pressure Point Conception 17 is a certain manner, in which I will not discuss here, can also cause a change in the functioning of the heart itself with the potential of damage to the nervous system feeding the heart. An energy strike can also damage the arteries in the area with the potential for an aneurysm to occur.

What makes a Pressure Point Deadly? I have been for several months now doing extensive articles on different pressure points for self defense on the body. But today I want to answer a specific question with this article. the question is "what makes a Pressure Point Deadly?" How can someone be killed with a pressure point strike.

So let's jump deep into this topic today!

What Makes a Pressure Point Deadly - The Points

I am not going to focus on specific pressure points in the article. I wrote an article back a little while ago called the Top 5 Deadly Pressure Points.  There is nothing mystical about pressure points. They are very simply a place on the body where a nerve ends, crosses over another nerve, or branches off like a "Y." 

However because of the anatomy of the area, some pressure points are very dangerous, even deadly, while others have little to no effect at all! Today I will be explaining why certain pressure points are deadly, and the reasons why they are. This will also help you to learn to "map out" the body and know in advance that perhaps the pressure point in question might result in death. 

Where is the pressure point located?

This is the first element we need to talk about to address this question, what makes a pressure point deadly. 

We can first divide the body into 3 different categories or areas.  

1) The Head: 

One possible affect is the shutdown of the muscles in the area that protect the brain stem and the integrity of the skull to the spine. This is what makes a Pressure Point Deadly.

An energy strike will have other effects like those explained here

2) The Chest & Abdomen:

"As you can see from the above diagram SP-21 is located on the ribs, about center of the bicep with the arms hanging. The exact location is on the lateral aspect of the chest, on the mid-axillary line, in the 6th intercostal space. An intercostal space is the "meat" between the ribs which is a hotbed for nerves!"

SP-21 is also located at the weakest point on the rib cage. A break in the ribs can of course puncture the lungs, which if not treated immediately will result in death. On the left side of the body a badly broke rib can also damage the heart or the "aorta."

Spleen 21 also has a direct tie into the Vegas Nerve, which is also referred to as the heart nerve and can therefore affect the functioning of the heart itself. This can result in a drop in blood pressure, irregular heart beats or cardiac arrest. 

If you hit outside the area of activation the result will not be as serious to the ribs themselves and will not affect the nerve.  The more accurate the more devastating the results. Can you see What makes a Pressure Point Deadly?

3) The Arms and Legs

The final area of interest is the arms and legs. For this example we will look at Pericardium 2 which is located  2 cun below the end of the anterior axillary fold, between the two heads of the biceps brachii muscle.

Aside from tremendous and crippling pain when struck because of the radial nerve breakage or the "humerus bone" can result in damage to the artery and death resulting from bleed-out internally. 

From a purely Kyusho Jitsu or Dim Mak standpoint this pressure point is less dangerous than the ones above. However if used in conjunction with as an example LU-03 has a direct effect on the heart. There are other much more dangerous arm and leg pressure points Like LU-05, and SP-11. I am sure by now you can see What makes a Pressure Point Deadly.

When it come to self defense the arms are critical. Often times people will think only of the head and perhaps doing a knockout. However the arms are always the first part of the attacker to present themselves. This makes Pressure Point LI-10 [Large Intestine 10] of utmost importance. So let us discover this pressure point gem!

Pressure Point LI-10 - Location & Effect

Excerpts from Kyusho Pressure Point Anatomy

"One of the most popular and pressure points to access. Pressure Point LI-10 is located 2 cun below LI-11 on the radial aspect of the radius, in the extensor carpi radialis brevis and longus muscles. Located on the Large Intestine Meridian.

Here is a short video with some information on application of Pressure Point LI-10

In the video I mention our Novice Kyusho Jitsu Certification Workbook which you access here. 

Pressure Point LI-10 in Conclusion

You see, the governments do not want you to protect yourself. They want to protect you! Of course you have to give up rights like privacy to be protected! And you have been giving the right to privacy up on a daily basis for years now! No matter what the powers say. Things like the GDRP are prime example of this. And even the idea that I need a Privacy Policy here shows how much you are being watched. 

How does a government protect you? More surveillance, restricted rights and movement. Now i am not saying these measures need to be abandoned. I am saying they are a result of ulterior motives and not just "security." And these were the stepping stones toward the complete regulation of your Right to Self Defense. And we cannot have this happen or lose this right!

Right to Self Defense - Definition

In order to fully understand how your right to self defense is in jeopardy you first need to get  a deep understanding of what self defense means. 

Right to Self Defense - The Legal Definition is provided in the following links

Now from my research here the Right to Self Defense does not really exist in England. There is NO LAW I can find. It is purely up to the Judge in the court to decide. It falls under this catagory and ideal of "common law."

And the way things are in England I think it is safe to assume you must prove your innocence, and not that they must prove your GUILT. Here is an article that discussed the idea that to defend yourself in England is ILLEGAL. And when i come to violence,  England is ON FIRE with knife crimes. In 2017 there were almost 40,000 offenses! 

Thank you for reading this article on the Right to Self Defense in the 21st Century. Once completely lost it will be very difficult to get back. 

Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day! Keep Learning!
