Raises the blood pressure in cases of hypotension when BP is falling Important diagnostic for malignant cancer Important diagnostic point for malignant digestive cancers Treatments Detoxification Treatment Points: • Autonomic Point (39) Calm sympathetic nervous system • Shenmen (area 1, 2nd ear model) Calm shen • • • These points are to assist in the process of toxins through major detoxification organs Kidney (47) Liver (46) Lungs (52) Obesity Main Points: Stomach (43) Secondary Points: Mouth (40) Lung (area 52) Spleen (50) Large Intestine (45) Hungry Thirsty (midway 25-29) (midway 25-28) Kidney Sympathetic/autonomic (47) (39) Shenmen (area 1, 2nd model) Endocrine (34) Sanjiao (53) Discussion: Maximize food/drink processing: stomach, spleen, large intestine Calm the shen: shenmen, autonomic/sympathetic Calm oral cravings: mouth, hungry, thirsty Enhance metabolism: endocrine Resolve dampness associated with obesity: lung, kidney, sanjiao Treatment: Filiform or electric acupuncture daily, 3-5 points each time. Follow up with seeds/granules. Conjunctivitis Treatment 1 Blood letting on Ear Apex Treatment 2 Puncture with strong stimulation: • Eye (K on 2nd ear model) • Shenmen (area 1 on 2nd ear model) • Ear Apex Retain needles for 30 minutes Bronchial Asthma Main Points Lung (area 52) Trachea (area E) Adrenal or Infratragic Apex (29) Soothe Asthma or Antitragic Apex (32) Kidney (47) San Jiao (53) Large Intestine (45) Shenmen (area 1 on 2nd model) Secondary Points Root of Vagus (71, 2nd ear model) Methods of Treatment: During active asthma attack: Strong stimulation with filiform needle. Choose 4-5 points bilateral or unilateral. Retain for 30 minutes. When during “asthma season”: Same as above, but daily until condition stabilizes. After stabilization, once every other day. During Remission: Embed needles or seeds. Chronic Gastritis Main Points: Stomach (43) Secondary Points: (46) End of inferior helix crus – sympathetic nerve (39) Spleen (50) Mouth (40) Lung (52) Endocrine or Intertragus (34) Discussion: All points calm gastric overactivity. Stomach/spleen calms the organ as does sympathetic nerve. St/Sp additionally increase efficiency of the food processing. Endocrine point stops overproduction of acids. Liver calms liver fire flaring up to spleen/stomach. Mouth treats the inflamed stomach. Lung…good question. Treatment Methods: 1. Needle or electric acupuncture once daily using 3-5 points from the above. 2. Embed seeds or granules.
