Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Look through the TCM archives to find past e-mails and pictures uploaded on BaGuaFa. To simplify.......you can use GuaSha to break down the excess fascial tension in the plantar fascia and also over the fascia just above the heel in the achilles tendon.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hello, I am going to see a patient who suffers from plantar fasciitis. He wants to try acupuncture but not Chinese herbal medicine. It is not easy to find any information on how to treat his condition using only acupuncture. Do you have any information on how to treat? If so, please let me know. Thank you.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hi, Plantar fasciitis is a fascinating symptom.... I find that the most typical pattern is Kid Yang deficiency with Cold in the Bladder channel resulting in the cramping intense local pain at the heel. Most often it comes with some kind of low back disorder. If Kid Yang def with cold is the main imbalance causing the plantar fasciitis then check for tenderness at both Bl 52s. You are likely to find right Bl52 (MingMen) to be most tender/uncomfortabel for the patient which call for treatment of Bl13, 42, 23, 52 on more asymptomatic side - preferrably involving moxa treatment - 5-7 cones usually is enough to releive the uncomfortable feeling/tenderness either Bl52. Kid 7 shoould be needled - especially of the Kid sinew channel is tense and hard - a sure sign og Kid Yang w. Cold. Palpate for hardness of the muscles/fascies/tendon as well as tender points on the affected limb and do retained neeling for 20 or so minutes to relieve tender points and the tense of the posterior thigh and calf muscle- no De Qi since it will drain Yang - not desirable. Of course moxa treatment will be applicable. Releiving the tender points and the tension on the lower back, posterior thigh and calf will cause Qi to flow, warm the Bl channel and it should produce at least some releif after the first treatment. If you have plenty of time with your patient check abdomen for tension around Ren4 - 6, on left and right St25-30. after treatment check again - if tension has been releived then good if not then needle Ren4, Lu1 until tenseness clear. Herbs is not necessary..... Symptoms should have cleared by 5-6th treatment if patient is of average health and Shen is good - probably digestive porblems will clear as well - they will there whether the patient testifies to them or not. Hope this helps... Kindly, Thomas søn, 29 06 2008 kl. 12:23 +0000, skrev aprilkim88: > Hello, > > I am going to see a patient who suffers from plantar fasciitis.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 hi, Result is excellent . either use calf tender point needling , or auricular acupuncture of heel and shenman +_ sub cortex follwed with press needles.if you are correct with the diagnosis you will be surprised with the results . still there are many other ways to treat .but these are the most basic and successful .do not keep the body needles for more the few min.(3-5) once a week. regards.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I have used this treatment with almost uniformly excellent results for a few years. The needling can be briefly painful, but they'll come back because it works so well and has been durable: http://www.medicalacupuncture.org/aama_marf/journal/vol13_1/poster1.html -Ben Hawes, L.Ac. -- ATTENTION: Protected by Federal Law!
