To Whom It May Concern:
I am Dr. Peter Y. Li, M. D., currently working as an
Anesthesiologist in the Pomona Valley Hospital Medical
Center in Los Angeles area, California. Dr. Feng Xiao
was one of my classmates of the medical school in
Chongqing, China. I am very happy to write for him.
I can still remember our old time in medical school 20
years ago. Feng studied very hard not only with
Western medicine but also Chinese medicine. He showed
his great interests in Chinese medicine and
demonstrated his profound understanding of the
principles and mechanisms of Chinese medicine. I can
recall some of his questions in our Chinese medicine
class sounded so hard to understand and somehow
strange to me. He was an excellent student in our
class and always kept in the top 5 of our class in
both Western and Chinese medicine during our whole school years.
Feng always likes to be challenged and it motivates
him to achieve one success after another. After moved
to North America, he has brought his acupuncture
skills with him and treated many patients. He provides
acupuncture service in Southern New Hampshire area.
His patients basis has been accumulated rapidly.
There is no doubt that he would be a great doctor with
many new achievements. I know that since he is not
only a doctor with a high quality of training and
countless hands-on experience but also a doctor who
cares for his patients from his heart.
I sincerely wish he lived in LA area so my family and
I could benefit from his care when we need to. But I
have to admit that I consult with him quite
frequently. His valuable advices have helped my family
and me very much.
I am sure he will continue to make more and more
success with his great effort and enthusiasm of
practicing medicine and taking good care of his
patients.
Sincerely yours,
Peter Y. Li, M.D.
Los Angeles, California

Definition of Terms used and Types of Massage
Swedish Massage – a system of long strokes, kneading and friction techniques on the more
superficial layers of the muscles, combined with active and passive movements of the joints.
Deep Tissue – releases the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep
finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the grain of muscles,
tendons and fascia. It is called deep tissue, because it also focuses on the deeper layers of muscle
tissue.
Effleurage – is a stroke generally used in a Swedish massage treatment. This smooth, gliding stroke
is used to relax soft tissue and is applied using both hands.
Friction – is the deepest of Swedish massage strokes. This stroke encompasses deep, circular
movements applied to soft tissue causing the underlying layers of tissue to rub against each other.
The result causes an increase in blood flow to the massaged area.
Petrissage (also called kneading) – involves squeezing, rolling and kneading the muscles and
usually follows effleurage during Swedish massage.
Sports Massage – massage therapy focusing on muscle systems relevant to a particular sport.
Trigger Point Therapy (also known as Myotherapy or Neuromuscular Therapy) – applies
concentrated finger pressure to "trigger points" (painful irritated areas in muscles) to break cycles of
spasm and pain.
