Stems and Branches Acupuncture in Daily Practice
Why the same points work for one patient and not another. The books show how a date of birth reveals the meridians a person leans on, and which points of a textbook combination belong to this patient.
Great movement calculator
Enter a date of birth, yours or a patient's. You get the element that dominated that year and the reaction it provokes, with one daily practice the patient can do at home. It shows tendencies, not a diagnosis. In the clinic the pulse decides.
You won't just understand it.
You'll be able to do it.
I built these courses to hand you the essence of what you need in the shortest possible time — the way I would want to be taught myself. Every method here follows one standard: diagnose, treat, verify. Same patient. Same visit.

Every course. One clinical standard.
Short on purpose. Filmed on real patients. Priced so you can simply start — the re-test will do the convincing.
The Chain™ — Sinew Meridian Therapy
One test names the sinew meridian, two points treat it — and you re-test before the patient leaves the room.
"Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't."
Every practitioner knows this sentence. You needle the same points, the same way — one patient improves, the next doesn't. And you can't say why.
What's missing? Not another style. Not more theory. Verification. The whole profession teaches what to do. Almost nobody teaches how to check that it worked — while the patient is still on the table.
Diagnose
The pulse in twelve positions, or six phases of movement — the patient shows you what's wrong. You don't guess. You read.
Strategy
From the diagnosis, the strategy follows. From the strategy, the points select themselves. A few — not a few dozen.
Treat
Short, precise stimulation. Minutes, not hours. Acupuncture is simple and logical. Don't complicate it.
Verify — immediately
Re-check the pulse. Re-test the movement. The energy changed the moment you needled — now you can see it. If you can't verify, you're guessing.
Diagnosis → Strategy → Points → Immediate verification.
That is the
standard behind every course on this platform.
"Knowledge you can't use in practice is just a ball and chain."
— Dr. Michal Richter · a rule repeated in every course
I teach only what I use on my patients. Every day.
My name is Michal Richter. I am a doctor. For 25 years I've practiced clinical acupuncture in Katowice, Poland — twenty to thirty patients a day, every day.
I went through the long, heavy courses myself — and still left with results I couldn't repeat. What changed my practice wasn't more theory. It was one question, asked of every technique: does it work, and can you verify it? If something was written in the 15th century, that alone doesn't make it true. Old doesn't mean good.
So this is what I teach: modern thinking — neuroscience — joined with the very old wisdom of the East, in methods where the diagnosis dictates the points and the re-test settles the argument. And one more thing. Knowing something and teaching it are two different skills. My courses are short on purpose: my experience is your saved time.
