Acupuncture
zhēn shù
shinjutsu
針術 is a way to write acupuncture in Chinese.
The first character means “needle” or “pin.”
The second character means “technique” or “method.”
This is theoretically a Japanese word as well but not commonly used.
Acupuncture
zhēn liáo fǎ
hari ryou hou
針療法 is one of two ways to write acupuncture in Chinese and Japanese.
The first character means “needle” or “pin.” The second character means “to treat” or “to cure.” The last character means “method” or “way.”
This is the only reasonable selection if your audience is Japanese. This is the formal way to express acupuncture in Chinese, so this version is universal in most of Asia (the best all-around choice in most cases).
Acupuncture and Moxibustion
鍼灸 is the Chinese, Japanese Kanji, and old Korean Hanja word for acupuncture-moxibustion.
Pressure Points
diǎn xué
tenketsu
點穴 means pressure points in Chinese and Japanese.
In martial arts, this term refers to hitting a pressure point or vulnerable body cavity. 點穴 is not the term “dim mak,” but it is often used in place of or with dim mak.
In medical terms, these are just pressure points, which can be places for acupuncture or the application of moxibustion.
