Accupressure / Acupuncture points for backpain

[Guest guest]

Back pain can be treated effectively w/ accu treatments. The line along the back

of the leg is good for sciatica. I have a few stones that I have picked up of

different sizes and I place them at key points and lie down on them. Massage is

another way for back pain.

forward to pick up something from the floor.

 

What book or website best explains the proper points for each DIFFERENT

type of backpain. For example, there is backpain from twisting action

rather than the backpain that is worst from bending forward to pick

something up.

 

Thank you.

Good back pain points are distal and acute:

general: UB40, UB57, UB60

Backpain from twisting: Yang Wei Mai points and LI 10

Backpain from bending forward: DU 26

 

chronic and local:

UB12-16, UB41-45, SI14, UB18-19, UB23-26

For self massage on upper back pain, I like to tell

patients to lean up against the corner of a door

sill/jam almost a squatting position with the door jam

in the romboids and levator scapula area. This way,

the patient can apply appropriate pressure to knots in

back.

 

For lower backpain, I advise patients to find a sturdy

horizontal bar. Usually hand rails of an entrance at a

person's place of employment or a bank or parking lot

are always at the right height for some reason. Lean

back on bar and twist from side to side. Be careful

not to put too much pressure on the spine though.

This will work their Latissimus Dorsi, Serratus

Posterior Inferior, most importantly erector spinae.

 

If a partner is handy, massage and tui na is always

king. Also, I ask patient to lay down flat, then

bring knees to chest and have partner sit on top of

knees to stretch low back. Ooohh feels good.
