What is Korean Hand Therapy?

KHT originated in Korea in 1971. According to KHT, the whole body is reflected on one hand, which contains 14 micro-meridians and 345 acupuncture points that regulate our system, including the internal organs. Anyone can easily learn and use it safely and effectively to improve a variety of conditions by stimulating these points.

Why is Don’s KHT course different?

3 crucial factors of an excellent KHT teacher – all covered

There are three key factors that make a great KHT teacher: strong English communication, professional acupuncture knowledge, and extensive clinical and teaching experience. Don meets all three.

1. English ability

Don has been teaching KHT in English for over 10 years, making complex concepts easy to understand for international students.

2. Acupuncturist & KHT teacher

KHT originates from acupuncture. Therefore, being a qualified acupuncturist is essential to fully understand and teach KHT effectively. Don brings both perspectives together.

3. Extensive experience

Clinical and teaching experience are essential for a high-quality KHT education. Many KHT textbooks contain information that can be confusing or not practically useful. Don has about 40 years of experience practising and teaching KHT, allowing him to deliver only what truly works in real-life situations.

Much reduced learning time

It can take months, even for Korean learners studying in Korean, to fully grasp KHT. Don has simplified the learning process into 4 structured modules that cover all key aspects of KHT. These can be mastered in just 16 hours.

Comprehensive Workbooks

Don has translated 13 KHT books into two comprehensive course workbooks. They are clear, practical, and easy to use. Many students keep digital copies on their devices for convenient access anytime, anywhere.

Practical Information 1 – unique insights

Much of what Don teaches is highly practical but not found in textbooks or taught by other KHT instructors. This knowledge comes from decades of hands-on clinical experience at the KHT Wellness Center and his work as an acupuncturist.

Practical Information 2 - from techniques to principles 

In addition to useful techniques, Don teaches underlying principles that help you apply KHT across a wide range of conditions—without needing to memorise everything. He also shares a practical theory that can be applied to many real-world cases.

Tailored courses and workshops

With extensive clinical and teaching experience, Don can tailor courses and workshops to suit a wide range of audiences—including healthcare practitioners, corporate groups, sports teams, and Facebook health communities.
