I have just reviewed the pages and posts here to fix spelling and grammatical errors as well as adding some new content. So if a particular part of this site interests you you might want to revisit it.
Research
Most of what I talk about is known phenomenon. The rest is fairly new research that has not been duplicated that I know about. But as I explain, it makes perfect sense. As far as my new treatments are concerned, of course not. Where am I going to get the money? The acupuncture community itselfContinue reading “Research”
There are many different Styles of Acupuncture
There are the styles associated with different countries. Prominent among them is Chinese of course, Japanese and Korean. And then there is 5-element. And then there are different systems with their own way of doing things. And of course there are the micro-systems.Each has its advantages and disadvantages. Every acupuncturist gravitates to their own wayContinue reading “There are many different Styles of Acupuncture”
It is not hard to understand how it works.
You will find my explanations on this site perfectly reasonable and sensible. And where I expect you won’t understand (the bio-electric explanations) I present them in a way you should have no trouble with. So far, I have not gotten ANY objections to ANY of my explanations. And if you have any, I’d like toContinue reading “It is not hard to understand how it works.”

How you think affects how you feel which in turn affects your nervous system and brain chemistry. I have found that Bach Flower Remedies are usually effective in dealing with theContinue reading “Sometimes Acupuncture isn’t the whole answer.”
What makes Scientific Acupuncture Different.
Scientific acupuncture is not Classical acupuncture. It does borrow the classical function of points however. But through experience, we extend that knowledge base. For example, we know that LU1 is the most adaptogenic point on the body. It also can down regulate the immune system. But only if the LU pulse is deficient. We learnContinue reading “What makes Scientific Acupuncture Different.”
Sciientific acupuncture works the way the body works!
And we let the body tell us what it needs. How? You might ask. You just have to know how to ask it. First there are the symptoms. You ask the patient appropriate questions. What are you feeling? What does it feel like? What makes it better or worse? Do the symptoms appear at aContinue reading “Sciientific acupuncture works the way the body works!”
Welcome to Scientific Acupuncture!
Scientific Acupuncture goes beyond “Classical Acupuncture”, “Modern Acupuncture” or “Medical Acupuncture” by using techniques based on the ways acupuncture affects the body scientifically. It is a view that sees beyond the trees and looks at the whole forest. It goes far beyond the idea it is just endorphins and brain chemistry. It looks at howContinue reading “Welcome to Scientific Acupuncture!”
