4. How does it work?

5. What are Zones? A Zone is a channel of the body that runs from the top of the head down through the arms and hands, legs and feet. There are 10 longitudinal zones, 5 on each side of the body. Each zone corresponds to fingers and toes which provides a simple numbering system. The most central zone is number 1 and then it works out to 5 as you go outwards. There are also horizontal lines, known as the transverse zones. These three zones are; shoulder, waist and pelvic.
