Yes John. I also use neurofeedback, especially for

stroke injury but this is outside the context of this

group. Reenah

Hi, usually when you look in Pub-Med under this specific item you are

not going to find much, but if you know what to treat=what

acupuncture point & what nerve/ganglion is under it, the point you

stimulate or sedate - and than the picture is different.

Since I am doing a lot of ST-01, SI-18 and GB-20 for brain issues in

animals - here what one of my team found for us -

I have no idea what you need, but these items may be useful:

 

Susan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

* This site http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?

CMD=search & DB=pubmed refers to 214 items, most of which are probably

useless, but among the first 20 titles are references to dogs, cats,

hamsters, rats.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

* " pterygopalatine ganglion

n.

 

A small parasympathetic ganglion in the upper pterygopalatine fossa

whose postsynaptic fibers supply the lacrimal and nasal glands. Also

called sphenopalatine ganglion. " The American Heritage® Stedman's

Medical Dictionary 2002, 2001, 1995 by Houghton Mifflin

Company.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

* " sphenopalatine ganglion Nerve: Sphenopalatine ganglion

 

Alveolar branches of superior maxillary nerve and sphenopalatine

ganglion.

 

The sphenopalatine ganglion and its branches.

Latin g. pterygopalatinum

Gray's subject #200 891

From trigeminal nerve

Dorlands/Elsevier g_02/12384795

 

 

The sphenopalatine ganglion (or pterygopalatine ganglion) is a

parasympathetic ganglion found in the spheno-maxillary fossa. It

supplies the gums, the mucous membrane and glands of the hard palate,

and communicates anteriorly with the naso-palatine nerve.

 

The Sphenopalatine Ganglion (ganglion of Meckel), the largest of the

sympathetic ganglia associated with the branches of the trigeminal

nerve, is deeply placed in the pterygopalatine fossa, close to the

sphenopalatine foramen. It is triangular or heart-shaped, of a

reddish-gray color, and is situated just below the maxillary nerve as

it crosses the fossa.

Roots

 

It receives a sensory, a motor, and a sympathetic root.

Sensory root

 

Its sensory root is derived from two sphenopalatine branches of the

maxillary nerve; their fibers, for the most part, pass directly into

the palatine nerves; a few, however, enter the ganglion, constituting

its sensory root.

Motor root

 

Its motor root is probably derived from the nervus intermedius

through the greater superficial petrosal nerve and is supposed to

consist in part of sympathetic efferent (preganglionic) fibers from

the medulla.

 

In the sphenopalatine ganglion they form synapses with neurons whose

postganglionic axons, vasodilator and secretory fibers, are

distributed with the deep branches of the trigeminal to the mucous

membrane of the nose, soft palate, tonsils, uvula, roof of the mouth,

upper lip and gums, and to the upper part of the pharynx.

Sympathetic root

 

Its sympathetic root is derived from the carotid plexus through the

deep petrosal nerve. These two nerves join to form the nerve of the

pterygoid canal before their entrance into the ganglion.

This article was originally based on an entry from a public domain

edition of Gray's Anatomy. As such, some of the information contained

herein may be outdated. Please edit the article if this is the case,

and feel free to remove this notice when it is no longer relevant. "

 

 

After sending you the previous email, I realized what you are

probably looking for isn't just information about the ganglia, but

the ganglia plus electro/acupuncture, so :

 

 

Here are references to 233 articles on sphenopalatine ganglion +

acupuncture:

 

http://www.answers.com/Sphenopalatine+ganglion+acupuncture

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Here are references to 341 articles on otic ganglion and acupuncture

(human and animals)

 

http://www.google.com/search?client=opera & rls=en & q=%22Otic+ganglion%

22%2B+acupuncture & sourceid=opera & ie=utf-8 & oe=utf-8

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Only 9 on otic ganglion and electroacupuncture:

 

http://www.google.com/search?client=opera & rls=en & q=%22Otic+ganglion%

22%2B+electroacupuncture & sourceid=opera & ie=utf-8 & oe=utf-8

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

And 35 on Sphenopalatine ganglion and electroacupuncture:

 

http://www.google.com/search?client=opera & rls=en & q=%

22Sphenopalatine+ganglion%22%

2B+electroacupuncture & sourceid=opera & ie=utf-8 & oe=utf-8

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Of course, some of the items may be duplicates, and more may be

worthless.

 

Maybe after I've taken your course, I will able to understand just

what you want, so could do a more selective job.

 

Sagiv.
