An Observation on Treating Very Sensitive Patients

I have two patients like this I am treating right now. For both of them I am just barely tapping the needle in or hardly putting it any further in. So, here I am stimulating the sympathetic nerve endings just under the skin. But I am getting the same effects I do wint a deeper insertion with a “normal” patient when stimulating the parasympathetic nerve endings deeper in the muscle. This suggests that when you stimulate the sympathetic nervous system with a very light stimulus, you will get a parasympathetic response instead. This is a new understanding of how the nervous system works.This suggests a connection between the sympathetic and parasympathetic parts of the nervous system!
