Both therapists were trained in China, but from different traditions. The first healer had lineal heritage in Taoism and was known for his anticancer training and achievement.

The second therapist was the fifth generation born into a traditional Chinese medicine family but did not attend medical school.

It was noted that there is considerable variability in the forms of EQT practice, varying by school and practitioner.

The researchers found that participants reported significant pain reduction and functionality in varying degrees after therapy.

The study was published in the April 2008 edition of Clinical Rheumatology.
