And if you're ignorant of such knowledge and cannot even spell "from" correctly in your signature, then yeah I'd say you have no argument
Consider this: Western medicine is only a few hundred years old whereas Chinese medicine is a few thousand. Obviously they must have been doing something right. Traditional practitioners may have said it's because it's your Chi or this or that, etc. but modern practitioners know that along these meridian lines (where many pressure points and highly sensitive areas lie) can release a variety of different chemicals into the body, for good or for ill. Combining points (as is often the case, as well as there are also connecting points for other points) release the natural hormones and healing abilities of the body but if done incorrectly can have adverse side effects. I am far from an expert yet, but I do have a few books on the subject and am studying it independently so when I do finish my pre-med program I can have a leg up on the competition.
