Fwd: Fw: New Issue of the Blue Poppy Online Journal of Chinese Medicine

[Guest guest]

Here is the table of contents for the lastest issue of Blue Poppy Journal.

 

I was particularly interested in the article on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and

Cupping. I can tell you from experience that many of the points he lists -

especially Bladder 23 has helped me greatly. But I have been using

acupressure, massage, and a heating pad on the points. I may see if my

husband is willing to learn cupping as it's hard to cup one's own back.

 

For those new to TCM, cupping is a special technique for working acupoints.

Use a small glass or cup (not paper or plastic which will burn). Burn the

oxygen out of the cup by placing a burning piece of cotton held on a pair of

tweezers into the cup. When the oxygen is gone, immediately place the cup

over the acupressure point. Because there is no air in the cup, this

creates suction. The area will become very red from increased blood flow.

 

I noticed a number of articles in this issue which will be of interest to

various people on the list. For example, there is an article on pediatric

hyperactivity and ear acupoints. There's another article on Restless Leg

Syndrome, or as it's called here, Restless Extremity Syndrome. Etc.
