About This Course

Course Introduction

Hua Tuo Longji Spinal-Balance Method is taught by Niu Xihua; the materials also use the name Niu Shihua. It uses observation and analysis of spinal regions to introduce concepts including locating points, identifying deviations, slow sinking pressure, and skilled point work. Topics such as neck, shoulder, lower-back and leg concerns, and head, face, and sense-organ concerns help students first understand the overall framework.

The materials divide study into digestive, respiratory, head-face and sense-organ, and neck-shoulder-lower-back-leg areas, with advanced discussions and communication topics. First connect observation steps and region-based reasoning into an outline, then compare assessment grounds across demonstrated cases. Actual spinal and joint techniques require professional guidance meeting applicable requirements.
