Kuatsu or Kappo, is an Eastern medical art, also known as the "restoration of life" that involves resuscitation techniques to revive individuals who have fainted or become unconscious from injuries sustained in martial arts. It includes methods like striking specific points, manual manipulation of the body to restore breathing, or applying pressure to help re-open blocked airways. Kuatsu originated from martial arts such as judo and jiu-jitsu and is an important skill taught to promote responsibility and empathy among practitioners.
The core purpose of Kuatsu is to bring a person back to consciousness after they have been knocked unconscious, strangled, or otherwise injured in a way that affects their breathing or vital functions.
Kuatsu is an ancient art that developed from various Japanese martial arts, including judo, jiu-jitsu, and karate. The founder of Judo, Jigoro Kano, developed and promoted Kuatsu as a vital medical art for martial artists. Learning Kuatsu is a vital part of the training and ethics of true martial arts. Kuatsu fosters a sense of responsibility and empathy among training partners, making it a mandatory aspect of training for many martial artists. It is not enough to know how to kill. One must also know how to restore life.
