               3- Conclusions application bunkai A.

As it can be observed above by the application of the points of described acupuncture, tendinomusculars is acceded to the control of the channels, with which the motor functions of the attacker are made unusable. Due to the points so concretely struck, it is obvious that the designer of bunkai knew the effects caused and the function these points, as well as the existence of the channels tendinomusculars.

Also, the resulting shock waves of tsukis in the body of the attacker cause an alteration of the Ki in addition to the resulting blast effects in the liver, like breakage and/or disfunction, depending on the intensity of the produced blow.

It is necessary to remark that, according to the theory of the five movements, fundamental to understand the Eastern culture and, in individual, the Chinese, an attack to the liver brings like consequence that affects muscles and sinews of the attacker, altering also the defensive energies of the organism of which the liver is its generator, with which the caused pain has more incidence.
