Harmony and balance depend on the steady flow of Qi, the source of all energy. The Qi flows along the meridians (energy channels) and connects the internal organs of the body.

With needles during acupuncture or with massage, the flow of Qi can be promoted and Qi blockages can be released. The aim is always to find the balance and inner harmony, to restore health and thus well-being.

The Chinese describe yin and yang as the polar, mutually complementary and conditional forces that seek new equilibria in the human body. Yin stands for resting, cooling, preserving, enclosing, compacting, material and is associated with feminine, moon, night, down, cold and earth. Yang represents moving, warm, bright, dynamic, self-energizing, mental and is associated with male, sun, day, above, warm and heaven.

"The mind creates the one. The one creates the two. The two creates the three. All things have the dark in the back and strive for the light, and the flowing force gives them harmony."
