sympathetic activation and parasympathetic
deficiency.
• Environmental contaminants damage the

Conclusions
• Scientific evidences show that autonomic nervous system imbalance plays a
role in ageing, metabolic abnormalities and cancer metastasis among others.
• Oriental techniques have been shown to balance the autonomic nervous
system and thus are likely to exhert a profound effect in health maintainance.
