Guest guest Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 This formula is not mine but I know many who have used it and say that it works very well on incisions. Goop 2 Parts Emu oil 4 Parts T-50 Tocopherols 1 Part Beeswax 60 drops Tea Tree EO I would use this as as a base and add the heli , rose, and infused calendula that Michelle suggested. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Barbara Sophie's Soapery Birmingham, Alabama Love is the reason what ever the season.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 In a message dated 10/29/03 3:09:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, Chinese Medicine writes: I was trained to needle at either end of the scar with retention. Can anyone advise me if this an effective thing to do, whether it is too soon to treat locally, and any other tips and procedures about treating recent scars??? I was trained to do not only the ends but also along the scar going toward the scar if it involuted or dipping and outward if it is raised and point the end needles toward the nearest yang meridian if possible and then release the meridian using jing-river pt or jing well pt. Also vitamen E oil with lavender essential oil on the scar. About 6-10 drops of e.o to 1 oz. of vitamin E oil. One other trick especially good for recent surgery is to have the person take from 3-5 digestive enzymes on an empty stomach (providing no ulcer, etc.) 2-3 times a day. Digestive enzymes eat scar tissue (and other phlegm accumulations) if taken on an empty stomach. I imagine you have the basic stuff such as St. 35 (eyes of knee) and Sp. 9 and ashi points for the minicus if necessary. Hope this helps Bobbi ..

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Susan, Are you needling directly into the scar? I thought that it could create infection, is this incorrect? I have used turtle technique on myself as well as Low Level Laser (bladder augmentation, scar from CV8 all the way down) with some relief, but would love to increase Blood/Qi flow... Regards, Tymothy Greetings, I have treated scars on patients with very good results. I usu thread thin needles into the scar, with or without e-stim. Initially, the needles do not penentrate the scar tissue easily as the adhesions are too fibrous. I needle into the area as comfortably as possible. . .each time the needles are able to penetrate along the scar more easily. THe scar will look different after each treatment and the patient usu. has more mobility in the area and feels more comfortable. IMO, scars are major sources of stagnation and the threading needles tend to break it up quite nicely, allowing the qi another way to flow. I often will also use cross friciton massage with a salve or oil on the scar, following acupuncture, as well. I hope that this helps.

Mix together. To Use: While studying or working, apply this liquid with cotton pads to the elbows; let it dry and make another application. Repeat applications 3 or 4 times. Do not remove. Why: The Lemon juice acts as a bleach, the Mint as a soothing aromatic astringent. -- SeaSpriteWe'd love for you to join: MyMothersBible www.angelfire.com/la2/wildlifeden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
