What is the history of Sam Won Dong?
Sam Won Dong was developed by Prof. Park Jae Woo, the Philosopher and Scientist from South Korea, after several decades of successfully treating and teaching using acupuncture only on hands and feet. The innovative healing system, he named in Korean, Su (hand) - Jok (foot).
Prof. Park Jae Woo originally developed a drug-free Sujok Therapy in his early years. This system of treatment comprises a combination of acupressure, acupuncture, colour, light and seed therapies performed on hands and feet to prevent and cure the illness and restore health without drugs. SuJok gained instant success across Russia and India due to ease of learning, and immediate treatment results.
The SuJok system of knowledge is based on the direct resemblance and correspondence of the hands and feet to our body in structure and functions.
However, Prof. Park Jae Woo’s aim was to empower not only therapists, but every human being to self-heal and to maintain a healthy body and mind. The Smile meditation, Twist walking and Sam Won Dong became the result of the Professor’s effort to spread the knowledge and practices to everyone to be used instead of acupuncture and relying on external help to balance and heal oneself.
Since, Professor Park Jae Woo passed away in 2010, his two sons Dr. Park Minchul and Dr. Park Minkyu carry the knowledge of Sujok and Sam Won Gong.

What is Sam Won Dong practice?
This practice is based on the theory of Triorigin, the fundamental forces governing the world around and within us, introduced by Prof. Park Jae Woo.
Sam Won Dong is a complex of spiral movements slowly changing from one to another. The sequence of healing moving meditation follows the activation of the Triorigin energies in a natural order to harmonise our body, mind and soul.
The sequence of movement is performed in a gentle and slow pace, slightly stretching the body naturally from the core, “work” with every joint and toning every muscle.
As Sam Won Dong practice is based on South Korean medicine, all movements are in harmony with our physiology and purposefully designed to strengthen our skeleton, increases the flexibility of the spine, activates metabolic processes in the body, and normalizes blood pressure, fluid circulation, oxygenation of blood, improves the mobility of the joints and the contractile capability of muscles.

Please enquire.
Is Sam Won Dong for everyone?
YES. Absolutely, yes!
Sam Won Dong can even be practiced sitting down. In our classes we had representation from all ages from 20 to over 80 years old.
In our practice we had individuals who began the daily practice taking a high-blood pressure medication and steadily reduced the medication dosage. After 22-day marathon of daily practice they felt comfortable stopping the medication and learned to balanced their state of wellbeing through daily practice.

Do you run Sam Won Dong practices for pregnant and those with newborn babies to the Earthside?
Big and smiling, YES!
I offer two separate practices:
* Sam Won Dong during pregnancy
* Sam Won Dong for mums with newborn babies and until babies are six months. At this point babies are too mobile to catch them in class.
I also created the Cosmic Baby Academy. Here I offer Tools and Place for healing, learning & loving to connect & to share for mums, babies & mums-to-be
https://taplink.cc/driyawhiteley/p/ad3916/
I developed a development programme to connect, communicate and encourage natural newborn babies abilities to flourish, which begin to disappear from 6 months due to pruning of unused neural pathways in the brain.
The programme is intuitive and mums and babies catch on quickly and we have a lot of fun learning together.
