Guest guest Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 btw: i used parkinson's as an example as i know that it is commonly considered a diff. condition to tx in the west, at least. however: i am interested in the auricular approach you mention in particular for a liv/kid yin xu patient, 69yf, carrying a west. dx of dytonia and presenting with intension tremor in R UpExtrem, and constant neck tremor. i am guessing the auricular approach you suggest would apply to all w-tremor conditions. yes?

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Yes, from what you describe, your liv/kid xu patient would be treated the same. Please read my recent post on " Parkinson's Treatment " as it describes in detail herbal, scalp, body and auricular prescriptions that may be appropriate for your patient.
