Guest guest Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Not sure if this has been answered yet, but it is 1.5 cun distal from HT 3. I have a patient who has been dx with Parkinson's so any info you could share regarding treatment would be appreciated. kathleen < wrote: Hi All, & Yandy, Yandy wrote: > ... could anyone tell me the location of Xiaochanxue ( " disperse > tremor point " ) which is used for parkinson disease and Empirical > Weight Loss point.

Any other details on the Fxs/uses of the point?

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2004 Report Share Posted November 20, 2004 Kathleen, The following is a site devoted to parkinson's recovery which is based on using tuina on the ankles to readjust the bones. I know someone who has used this with good results. http://www.pdrecovery.org/index.html Chinese Medicine , Kathleen Mathews <kthmathews2003> wrote: > > Not sure if this has been answered yet, but it is 1.5 cun distal from HT 3.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Thanks Brian. Just got back from a seminar in Toronto but will check out the site later today. I do recall Brian W. doing some research on this for one of our classes: an acupuncturist in California was treating patients diagnosed with Parkinson's and she discovered that many of them had injured the area around ST 42... not an ankle point, but close. Asked my patient about this and, yes, her foot had been stepped on by a horse. But, as she works with horses, this is no surprise. Also, most people who have spent time around horses have probably had their foot stepped on and do not have Parkinson's. Just a comment I wanted to pass on. Take care.

Brian: Yes, this is one of the curious things in life. plenty of people with subluxations walking around with little or no symptoms (that they're aware of anyway), and others that get pain with the slightest mis alignment. X rays aren't indicative of arthritic pain, etc. We're exposed more or less to the same types of things, but seemingly only with a tendency (or alot of trauma) do they develop into something. Health is one of the craziest and most challenging things. --brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 Just a note that a pre-existing injury (unresolved) is not the only requirement for Parkinson. A " over-achiever " personality was also a factor. Ed Kasper Message: 25 Wed, 24 Nov 2004 00:17:25 -0000 " briansbeard " <brian_s_beard Re: Xiaochanxue ( " disperse tremor point " )?
