Guest guest Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 Maria: There are different types of internal wind. Can you tell me more about your condition? Then perhaps can tell you more about internal wind. In ancient times, internal wind was associated with sexual taxation, but the theory has developed more fully over time.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 We'll I've been suffering with panic attacks/agoraphobia/depression and headaches that come and go. My muscles seem to tighen and cause my headaches - gall bladder headaches I've been told. I also have back problems and carpal tunnel syndrome along with thoracic outlet.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Maria: Wiseman and Ye's Dictionary of Chinese medicine has a small entry for Internal Wind, and refers to a longer entry for Liver Wind stirring. That description seems to describe your muscle problems. Do you have other symptoms? The other problems you describe may or may not be related, but you and your practitioner need to address them. The panic attacks/agrophobia/depression and gallbladder headaches might be related. These are all emotional issues that can be addressed by herbal formulas like Gallbladder Warming Concoction and specific acupuncture points. Lonny Jarret has a book on these points at Spirit Press. Lower back problems might be related to kidney deficiencies, but you don't specify where on your back your problems are located. Do you have lumbar problems or sciatica? Is the problem higher up the back? Cervical spondalypathy generally affects the shoulder areas. If you have carpal tunnel, maybe that's related to computer use? Not sure what you mean by thoracic outlet. Internal wind is an old, vague term. The problems you describe are specific. They may all be related, especially the headaches--there are many different causes of headaches. It's important to address all of these with your practitioner.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Maria: Here is the Wiseman - Ye entry for Liver Wind Stirring Internally: Liver disease manifesting in spasm...Internal wind is movement of the body's yang qi and is the result of depleted stocks of yin in the viscera. Liver wind arises from extreme yin-yang and qi-blood imbalance...chief signs are severe dizziness, headache with pulling sensation, tension and stiffness in the neck, tingling or numbness in the limbs, or twitching of the sinews and flesh. Elementary Questions states: All wind with shaking and visual dizziness is ascribed to the liver. There is a good deal more to this, but I wanted to give you the sense of what the books say. There is more about Liver yang transforming into wind, Extreme heat engendering wind, blood vacuity engendering wind. You need to talk to your healer to find out specifically what you have. If you'd like a place to talk more about your emotional issues, I moderate a list " TCM Mental.

The thoracic outlet is the area around the neck and shoulder. TO syndrome is a fancy name given to tightness in these muscles that can cause the bones to compress against the nerves and create tension and even numbness in the arms, hands and neck. sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what *that* is <g>, but thoracic outlet syndrome is not just confined to the cervical vertebrae. The entire shoulder/neck girdle is affected and can include the arms and hands because of nerve compression lying under the collarbone. sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
