Not worth it
Ok this app isn't worth it only after u buy it does it tell u that u need an expert to know how to use the pressure points and some dont even work sorry for bad news
Decent
Would be really helpful if there were some descriptions and a zoom option. Tough for novice to get a real benefit
App does what it promises
I am a student of Hapkido and studying use of pressure points. I find this app useful in the following ways.
- It provides a quick way to look up the points. You can search by acupoint code or name, or graphically on the body chart. As a reference guide it is simple and quick to use.
- My instructor teaches the points in their Korean names. I don't speak Korean so the audio feature of the app helps me learn those names.
- The 3D graphic used in this is really beautiful. High quality images.
Keep in mind this is for common points used in martial arts, so it doesn't show all the points used in acupuncture.
I am not sure why some of the reviewers complain this app doesn't TEACH you pressure points. This is a reference guide and it does exactly that. I don't think it's realistic for one to expect to pay $4 and learn on your own something so advanced and difficult as pressure points. Use this as a supplementary tool.
I would have given it a better rating if it had a zoom feature, otherwise this a great reference tool. Future updates to add zoom hopefully?
