Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Posted November 1, 2008 Hello, I have a patient with a bone spur in the heel area on the right foot. He is very sensitive patient. I use body points according to my diagnosis of Liver and Kidney yin deficiency and liver qi stagnation. I have also tried to surrender the bone spur from 3 to 5 needles inserting them superficially since he is very sensitive. Does moxa or electroacupuncture work in this case and do I need to stimulate needles around bone spur? I use Flex (Spur) from Evergreen as his formula I also know some external herbs to use but have not tried them yet. Thank you. Yuliya Quote
Guest guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Posted November 6, 2008 - I have very good success with a TENS unit on the heels and fascia on the plantar aspect of the feet. It is much less painful than needles, and safer, more effective. -- In Chinese Medicine , Yuliya Goldberg <ygold77 wrote: > > Hello, > I have a patient with a bone spur in the heel area on the right foot.

It is much less painful than needles, and safer, more effective. > That goes for ES (needle electro-stim) also. I've used a crossing 4-point pattern --- ca. Ki5 to UB-63 and ca. UB-62 to ca. Ki-2, dispersing frequency ca. 10-15Hz. If you have a device that can create an " interference pattern " across the area, that's also said to be very effective. (Those expensive devices sold by Darren Starwynn's company can do that.) Quote
