Traditional Chinese Medicine Approach to Sleep

Comments (2)

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

Treatments for insomnia could include one or more of the following therapies: acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutritional counseling, Chinese massage (acupressure/tuina), and qigong.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is the insertion of needles into specific points of the body to reduce pain, to promote relaxation, and to treat various health concerns. Insomnia and sleep disorders are common reasons why people visit an acupuncturist.

Chinese Herbal Medicine

There are many traditional Chinese herbal formulas to help regulate the sleep pattern. A formula is chosen for each person based on their symptoms, constitution, and medical history. It is best to have a licensed medical practitioner select the proper formula.

Chinese Nutritional Therapy

Chinese Nutritional Therapy includes basic advice on healthy eating as well specific food recommendations for each patient. Some points emphasized in Chinese Medicine for better sleep include not eating for at least two to three hours before bedtime, as well as the avoidance of greasy or sweet foods. Chinese Medicine also recommends staying away from cold drinks. While Americans are big on ice-cold beverages, this is a huge no-no in Chinese Medicine. Also, when a patient seeks help from a Chinese Medicine practitioner for insomnia, a very detailed review will be made regarding the quality of their digestion. Chinese Medicine places a strong emphasis on the connection between digestion and sleep.

Chinese Massage Therapy (Acupressure/Tuina)

Chinese massage therapy consists of applying pressure to specific points on the body (acupressure) and techniques such as kneading, rolling, and pressing (tuina). Acupressure and tuina have demonstrated effectiveness for improving the quality of sleep. Research from China reported the effectiveness of acupressure and tuina in the treatment of insomnia patients. An Italian study reported improved sleep quality after acupressure stimulation for those suffering from sleep disorders, particularly in cancer patients experiencing insomnia.

Qigong

Qigong is a practice that uses movement, breathing, visualization, and meditation to reduce stress, improve flexibility, and enhance overall health. Like a physical therapist will prescribe specific exercises for the orthopedic patient, the Chinese Medicine/Qigong practitioner will often prescribe individualized qigong techniques for each patient. The regular practice of qigong is strongly associated with stress reduction and the encouragement of a deep, restful sleep.

How Does Acupuncture Work

Comments (4)

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic medical system composed of several sophisticated techniques that are designed to cure illness and promote health and well being.

Originally developed in China and now used by many cultures throughout the world, TCM has been proven effective for treating a very wide variety of health issues. TCM is a safe and practical form of medicine that works to balance the body’s functions and restore health and wellness. Originating over 6,000 years ago, TCM addresses the unique health conditions of each individual patient, offering a wide variety techniques to diagnose and treat the root cause of health problems.

In traditional Chinese medicine, practitioners recognize that a balance of qi (energy) is essential to health and harmony in the body. The basic concept of TCM is that energy, or Qi, energizes all the metabolic activity in our bodies. This life force is always flowing. When Qi flows freely, we are healthy. When this QI (energy) is blocked or stagnated in one way or another, the body’s lines of communication (meridians) are weakened and disease or pain results. Consequently, unblocking this stagnation allows the flow of energy to become restored and the body can heal itself and regain the balance. Acupuncture can relieve pain, promote healing, and balance the body to optimize health and vitality.

Acupuncture needles are placed in very specific locations, they stimulate the immune system, affects the circulation, blood pressure, the rhythm and stroke volume of the heart, secretion of gastric acid, and the production of red and white blood cells. It also stimulates the release of a variety of hormones that help the body to respond to injury and stress.

Acupuncture For Lower Back Pain

Lower Back Aches or Sciattica

Acupuncture is treatment of the human body’s meridians where the “life force” or Qi flows through. When these meridians are blocked it compromises the health of the individual. The goal of acupuncture, therefore, is to unblock these clogged meridians and allow the Qi to once more flow freely throughout the body.

Sciatica pain is when the lower back aches. It is a form of pain caused by a pressure on the sciatic nerve. The pain usually goes from the top of the buttocks to the legs. Pain may be from muscle spasms through which the nerve is directly connected. It may also be caused by the inflammation of the nerve itself. Acupuncture for sciatica pain has been proven by patients to remove spasms and to provide immediate relief.

Acupuncture for a sciatica can improve blood circulation in the lumbar region and the spinal cord which does a lot to remove pain. It relaxes muscles and provides flexibility and strength to the bones. It can even increase energy which can push a person to be more active.

A few tips:

  • Be attentive to the character of the soreness, where it hurts exactly or how you are affected. Know what makes the affected area better or worse. Identify accurately the type of pain or ache, whether it is a sharp stabbing pain, whether it is aching, throbbing, burning or crushing pain.
  • Get a good night’s sleep. This is important because sleep allows painful body parts to rest, it allows damaged tissues to heal and it restores your ability to cope with discomfort.
  • Improve your diet — balance your diet with a wide range of fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains. Drink at least 8 glasses of pure water each day. Don’t dull the soreness with alcohol.
  • Get some gentle exercise. Gentle stretching helps manage the condition. The key is to do gentle movements that stretches the body, for example tai chi.

Find relief from your lower back pain. There are alternatives to suffering.  Natural non-invasive/non-surgical methods that may help relieve aches and discomfort of lower back pain. It couldn’t hurt and it might actually be the one to finally relieve you of a lot of your body’s aches and pains and even make you healthier.

Acupuncture Meridian Points

Comments (2)

Acupuncture Meridian Points are spots on the body that contain concentrations of energy. The body of a person has twelve meridian points. There are specific acupuncture points along the meridians. Meridian points are best described as a network of energy streams in the body that lead to specific centers, such as lungs, heart, and many other critical parts of the body

 

The Meridian Cycle

Meridians are classified yin or yang on the basis of the direction in which they flow on the surface of the body.

Yang energy flows from the sun, and yang meridians run from the fingers to the face or from the face to t he feet.

Yin energy, from the earth, flows from the feet to the torso and from the torso along the inside of the arms to the fingertips.

Since the meridian flow is actually one continuous, unbroken flow, the energy flows in one definite direction, and from one meridian to another in a well determined order.

An acupuncture meridian chart is a chart that gives the specific pressure points for specific body parts. When these pressure points are stimulated correctly, the desired effects are achieved. This could be relief from certain pains and aches, diseases, or reversal of certain conditions. Imbalances in the meridians causes blockage and constriction.

Holographic Chips interact with acupuncture meridian points to normalize energy throughout the body in order to achieve balance. However the holographic chips use sound waves, frequencies, vibrations and specific formulas that radiate so the placement doesn’t have to be exact as in acupuncture.

Holographic Chips use 3000 years of science and studies and advanced technology to optimally balance and tune your body, naturally. Holographic Chips are actually programmed holograms that look like little decals. At first look, everybody is skeptical and you wonder how can a little adhesive decal deliver as promised.

Well as it turns out these Holographic Chips are implanted with sound wave, vibrations and frequencies that when placed on specific acupuncture areas, 98% of time, people report an increase in energy and stamina, deeper, more restful sleep, pain relief and other positive results. Naturally, individual results will vary depending upon numerous personal and environmental factors such as overall state of health, age, diet and so forth.

Best results depend on;

  • Proper hydration. Drink pure water while wearing the Chip to increase cellular communication in the body and thereby increasing the affect of  Holographic Chips.
  • Proper application. Placed along sensitive acupuncture meridian points, the Holographic Chips interact with the bio-magnetic field around the physical body in a combination of ways that have been demonstrated for thousands of years to work effectively to heal and improve life.

Holographic Chip users are reporting increased focus and concentration along with better feelings and physical abilities. Physicians are reporting that patients with ADD/ADHD show significant improvement while wearing the Holographic Chips.

Currently there are three Holographic Chips Products:
