Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Use H7 and K7 or and Xin Bao 7. I treated a maniac with only this simple points, but it should be a daily insertion. There are plenty of other possibilities, but maniac problems are usually fire in the heart that lost control. Do it more than once a day, shenmen point on the ear should be good too, but as I said there are many, many possibilities. Like dispersing energy from Bahui, RM20... Hope you can have a good result. Hope you can help becaus acupuncture really helps in these cases, and works better then onter - Hoang Ho acupuncture Monday, October 11, 2004 5:33 PM Re: acupuncture mental illness There are treatments for the sicknesses you mentioned.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 I would like to help, but I need more information like pulse, tongue color, tongue shape, tongue coating, somewhat detailed description of behavior, other physical symptoms, past illness, family history of illness and specific time during a 24-hour period in which the problematic behavior is worse. My experiences with these types of patients is that acupuncture treatments tends to be most effective when it's tailor-made. You can e-mail your response on-list or off-list. Ming H. Lee, MPH, L.Ac.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 It is like you say, constant or studied treatment is best due to the usually problematic stress over time associated with mental illness. A chart with helpful massage or stimulation points for the patient to use at home might help. Mário Fialho <mariof wrote:Use H7 and K7 or and Xin Bao 7.
