When doing traditional electro-acupuncture the negative lead will typically be felt more than the positive lead. This is because negative charge stimulates firing on the nerve. You can change this by decreasing the current density at the negative lead. The easiest way to do this is by using an electrode pad instead of a needle at the negative lead. I used this method in my anti-inflammation electro-acupuncture (AIEAC) treatment to get the sensation to the inflamed area where the pain is. That way I would get additional pain releaf from the electrical sensation at the inflamed area. Also it turns out it also dumps the negative charge where it does the least harm (on the skin, especially at the lower arm or leg). The electrons come from two places.

Now when you stick a needle in past the skin, you will cause electrons to accumulate under the skin where the needle is placed. First, they come from the surface of the skin where they naturally reside due to the capacitance of the skin. Earthing will increase the charge accumulation. The ions will go through the needle (and even through the hole after the needle is removed). Second, the electrons also come from the formation of structured water around the needle that naturally occurs. From the charge separation that occurs with EZ formation. the needle will become negatively charged. All this negative charge will cause the nerve endings near where the needle is placed to increase its firing rate. So, here the autonomic effects of acupuncture join with the bioelectric effects.

It is one of the least effective treatments I talk about. It doesn’t treat the inflammation at all that is often involved, and unless you can adjust the frequency, you can’t deal with the problem of muscle tension. My anti-inflammation electro-acupuncture technique is much more effective in most cases. It is much more effective than a chiropractic adjustment because it can deal with all of the problems at once. It deals with the root cause of the pain which is the inflamed nerve root. It deals with the pain by stimulating the release of endorphins (By using 100 Hz). It deals with the muscle tension (By using 100 Hz) witch pulls the vertebrae out of alignment and is caused due to the pain. If your patient is doing both, Doing acupuncture after an adjustment, you will help the adjustment last longer. If the patients muscles are so tight that it makes the adjustment difficult, doing acupuncture before the adjustment is advisable.

When I had my first stroke in 2015, I lost my peripheral vision on my left side. It keeps me from driving and is a pain when shopping because when I am shopping and looking at the right shelving, if I don’t look to my left occasionally I would not see things or people in the aisle. So, I can run into things occasionally. So, I have thought up a device to let me know that something or someone is in my blind spot. So I am going to build a prototype and see if I can get it to work as I envision.Just another project to work on.

I know that much of ny material is rather scientific and may be rather hard to understand. I have tried to make it as understandable as possible. Have I succeeded? If you have any questions about anything, please let me know so I can try to clear it up. I included a primer on electricity for that reason. When I was in engineering school, I was with a lot of people smarter than me. They easily understood things that I had trouble with, so I understand what that is like. And of course there are different learning styles and repetition is also important. To me it is all easy to understand and makes perfect sense.But you are not me. I am happy to answer any questions you may have.You can reach me at mark@vackent.com.

If you want to learn how to do my style of acupuncture, this is the book for you! I explain how to do all the treatments I use in my clinic correctly and explain why you should do it that way, the scientific way. Buy e-book version here, Buy paperback version here. And you can get my first book here.

Heat (infrared radiation) from moxa or a heat lamp will cause increased buildup of structured water. That will cause an increase in the positive charge of the bulk water in the meridians and lymph ducks. That in turn will cause an increase of flow in the channels towards the chest. This then can cause a reduction of edema and a flushing out of toxins from the tissues. These effects are best achieved by applying the heat above the problem area. For example for edema or peripheral neuropathy in the lower legs, put the heat on the knees. this should not be the only treatment but as another way to add to the effect in addition to proper needling and possibly FSM. This will enhance the effect of needling and FSM.

This has to do with structured water. Since the needle is made of stainless steel, it is hydrophilic. Because of that, structured water will naturally form on the needle when it comes in contact with extracellular fluid.This then puts a negative charge around the needle shaft. Thus drawing even more water to the needle through electro-osmosis. And attracting even stronger elements of the immune system that have a positive charge. If the muscles in the area are tight or spasmy, the negative charge will encourage structured water formation an thus relax the muscles as explained elsewhere.

If so, I would like to hear them. So far, I have not received even one! So either you have none or you don’t care enough to express them. Either way, Scientific Acupuncture is the future of acupuncture because it simply works better. BECAUSE it uses the way it works!

As I think about it ,it occurred to me that the EZ formation may even be responsible for the formation of the meridians themselves. Let me explain how this can be possible, even probable. First, let us assume that cellular structure occurs at random. Unless some ordering process is at work, the boundaries between the cells would occur randomly. Now, no matter how the cell to cell boundaries are organized, they all are mostly made up of hydrophilic surfaces. Thus, they will naturally build EZ layers and produce H³O⁺which will accumulate in the extra-cellular spaces. Being of like charge, they will repel from each other, producing a pressure pushing the cells apart. The electric charge potential of the whole body pulls the positive charged H³O molecules towards the center of the body. Those combined forces can possibly make the spaces between the cells to form into channels. Building EZ layers between the cells would further increase the process. And, Wala, acupuncture meridians. The lymphatic ducts may even form starting with this process.
