Tong Ren Laser

The laser used within Tong Ren Therapy. The laser is not an acupuncture class laser which cost hundreds of dollars but a standard line measuring laser device. We aim the laser at specific points on the Tong Ren to allow the mind to focus on gathering energy into these areas. In general, the laser is used for tonification while the hammer is used to remove physical and energetic blockages.
