We had a very interesting evening with Bonbon yesterday. A retired dentist, Bonbon shared his road map of how he attained his arts from Wing-Chun, to Taekwondo, to TaiChi Master, to QiGong and then to acupuncture. He has combined his skills to approach Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Consultations upon requests were held. Plantar fasciitis pain immediately relieved by laser acupuncture was among one of the successful demonstrations held.
