Incredible acupuncturist in Iceland. Look for Árni Vignir Mathiesen Pálmason.
I met Arni in last year when we taught a foundation course in England. Then again we met in October this year in Amsterdam for another foundation course I taught in my city. And now in December we met again in Lisbon Portugal for the advanced course Arni took with Shaun
I'm truly inspired by his dedication

The upper arm region in Master Tung’s acupuncture, and especially the shoulder area, is one that I use extensively in the clinic for a wide range of conditions.
This is a yang region in principle, with strong moving capacity, but due to its proximity to the trunk it also takes on a yin-within-yang quality. Therefore, it is particularly useful for treating chronic conditions with excess.
The shoulder can serve us in different ways for both musculoskeletal pain and internal medicine.
For pain conditions, I often use the shoulder to treat the hip joint, lower back and ankle, but it is also excellent for addressing many type of knee problems.
Moreover, due to its' moving qi and blood ability the shoulder can be used in Sciatica and peripheral neuropathy
In internal medicine, I use the shoulder to influence the lower abdominal and groin region. Therefore, shoulder points are excellent for treating gynecological and urological disorders.
If you want to enhance your practice’s clinical effectiveness, Next month I will teach in Amsterdam a foundation course about Master Tung Acupuncture.

I am Gil Ton and I'm a practitioner of Chinese medicine and doctorate candidate in the Graduate Institute of Acupuncture Science, China Medical University, Taiwan.
In 2011 I graduated from Reidman College for Complementary Medicine in Israel, in which I completed 4-year program of Chinese medicine. Between 2011-2012 I lived in Beijing and studied with the late Dr. Wang Ju Yi (王居易) applied channel theory. After I finished my studies, I came back to my country and practiced in my own clinic in Tel Aviv for 3 years, and since the year 2015 I am living in Taiwan.
In the last 8 years I have been exploring master Tung acupuncture from different teachers. Ever since I arrived to Taiwan, I realized that what is taught in western countries about Tung's points is totally different then what is taught in Taiwan. After 4 years that I lived here, while studying with few teachers and improving my Chinese skills, I have decided to share my passion and interest about master Tung acupuncture in Taiwan.
Master Tung Ching-Chang 師公董景昌先生 (1916-1975) was born in shan-dong province, and he was the last generation of Tung family, a family of acupuncturist who passed down their knowledge orally for more than 300 years. Master Tung has decided to brake his ancestors tradition and accpeted 73 students to his clinic and shared with them his family knowledge.
Master Tung acupuncture is famous for its rapid and high clinical results success, whatever its for treating pain or internal medicine diseases. Moreover, it is famous due to the unique acupuncture points in a distinct areas in the body, which is not part of the 14 traditional channels. However, what makes this style of Acupuncture to be unique is not the points themselves but the complete system of it, which includes its own channels, needling methods and palm diagnosis.
You are more then welcome to react and be involved in the page's post and discussions. Its all about sharing the art and therapeutic effect of master tung’s acupuncture.
