Santos finds satisfaction in ancient art
By Frances Proctor
Even though the art of acupunc-
ture his been around for 5,000
years, many people of the western
world who have never tried it are
skeptical as to whether it really
does work.
Joe Samos of San Antonio, a
former Hondoan, firmly believes in
it~$o firmly, is a matter of fact,
that he has decided to make it a
major pan of his life.
A 1972 graduate of Hondo High
School, Santos began studying the
an of self defense as a hobby when
he was stationed at Travis Air Force
Base in California later that same
year. Now a master of Kung Fu,
Santos operates two martial arts
schools in the San Antonio area.
According to Santos, the Chinese
believe in yin and yang - good and
bad together making up a whole.
Once a student masters martial arts,
he can begin to study its opposite -
- the an of healing. Still later he
can go into cosmetic applications.
Eight years ago when he began
practicing the art of healing, he was
the youngest acupuncturist in
Texas. He is now working on his
Ph.D. in acupuncture under the
JOE SANTOS-, points to an acupressure chart with an
instrument he has invented which emits a tiny electrical
charge that can be used in the same manner as acupuncture.
guidance of Dr. George Long, a
noted teacher who was instrumental
in getting acupuncture started in
Califomii
Acupuncture works by re-
balancing the body's energy, called
chi, which travels through 12
meridians in the body, according to
Santos. Along these meridians are
points which stimulate the various
organs of the body.
Acupuncture is a rebalancing of
the entire body system to get all
organs to do what they're supposed
to be doing, he said.
"I do not treat a certain illness or
disease," he said, "I treat an
imbalance in the system, because
that's what causes the problem -
- some internal organ is not
functioning properly."
"Before a student begins prac-
ticing acupuncture on others he
must study for several years,
including spending a year practicing
on his own body," said Santos, so
that he knows what his patient is
feeling.
Santos stresses proper diet and
health habits as a part of his
practice, advising clients to eat
correct foods in order to give the
body an opportunity to heal itself.
"If you eat, drink, breathe and
exercise right," he maintains, "your
body can take care of itself.'
"After a student learns how to
treat ailments, he can go into
cosmetic areas such as facelifts and
breast augmentation," he said of his
recently acquired knowledge . "There
are no side effects with acupuncture
as there are with traditional
methods. We take care of the cause
by stimulating and strengthening
the muscles and tissues." The
acupuncture method requires no
surgery.
A former civil service employee,
Santos said "something inside" told
him to give up his job to devote
full time to giving lectures and
treatments and traveling to San
Francisco to work on his degree and
with Dr. Long. He says he has not
regretted his decision.
Santos also has other projects
underway, including writing books,
perfecting some of his own in-
ventions, and producing a video
study program on how everything a
person sees and hears has an effect
on him
Among his inventions is an accu-
electro device which enables acu-
puncturists to do treatments with-
out the use of needles. The pen-
light-shaped instrument emits a
miniscule electrical charge which
acts to stimulate the body's pressure
points without puncturing the skin
as in the traditional method.
