With the development of high technology and the wide use of computers, more
and more people are working in offices as “white collar” professionals. Such
group includes programmers, secretaries, managers, bank clerks, accountants,
lawyers, doctors, etc. As a result more and more people have suffered from
different “civilization-related illness”. For instance, those sitting in
front of the computer are apt to suffering from “computer syndrome”, an
impediment characterized by vertigo, irritability, headache, visual fatigue
and heavy shoulders. Also, those who live a fast-paced stressful city life
are apt to suffering from the gastrointestinal irregularities, insomnia,
etc. Those who drive often or sit for a long period in front of a computer
at work, in front of a TV at home, and do less exercise are apt to suffering
from neck diseases. The treatment and prevention of these
“civilization-related illnesses” by a natural medical approach has been a
challenging question that confronts many medical professionals. Wu’s Head
Massage, a new specialized treatment and health care method, is a direct
solution to these problems.

theory that of the distribution of organs and limbs on the face as described
in <<The Yellow Emperor’s Canon of Internal Medicine>>, and on the
theories of the scalp and ear acupunctures. Wu’s Head Massage is also
practiced by assimilation of theories from Shaoling and Er-Mei acupoint
pressure techniques, Qigong, and hypnosis. It adapts technique of original
local head massage, then applying the standard practice movements, until the

During 1980’s, the founder of foot Massage, Priest Ruoshi Wu introduced a
technique that originated from the Chinese native local foot massage therapy
first to Taiwan and then to Europe. It was pity, however, that during its
introductory period overseas, his foot massage therapy was quickly absorbed,
dismembered and differentiated by the Reflexology School due to lack of
Chinese Medical theory and sufficient strategies in marketing and planning.
In contrast, the Wu’s Head massage, which Professor Wu dedicated for more
than ten years gestated, and gave birth to fruitful results. The healing
principle of the head massage is in accordance with a systematic traditional
Chinese medical theory; the application of the standard practicing movements
and the supplement of Five Organs Tea (enhancer for the five different
internal organs namely: heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney) all combine
to perfect and lengthen its effectiveness. The Wu’s Head Massage registered
its intellectual assets worldwide to protect its right. While enjoying its
popularity in
Europe and
America, Wu’s Head Massage will surely be practised all over the world in
ten years time for the benefit of human civilization. Those who are
