SV: Epilepsy, Electricity and acupuncture

[Guest guest]

Let me add one more interesting tidbit to this discussion.  Though I have, in

the past, mentioned different acupuncture protocols that I have used with Chana,

I must admit that I was a little disingenuous.  The truth is that  Chana

hates getting acupuncture, (and not just from me!)   does not relax when

needled, and  becomes paradoxically, more irritable and vulnerable to

seizures even upon administration of superficial or auricular acupuncture.  From

 my experience I have found that two specific types  of patients generally

do not benefit from acupuncture: Those who are severly Blood Xu, and those who

have difficulty discharging electricity.   I would also offer the observation

that often these two conditions co-exist, and are both directly related to the

liver,  with liver wind  generated by a lack of  Liver Blood and Kidney Yin.

The story about the wife of Yehuda reminds me of my own epilepsy.

 

Every month (about) since early childhood I had this problem, and was put

out of function for about 30 minutes, with a period of recovering

afterwards. After having had this problem for 35 years, I decided to try to

treat myself with Nogiers ear acupuncture. It was a little difficult to

treat oneself, but finally I had found the point to use. I waited for the

next time the epilepsy occurred, and just as it started, I needled the

point. Then something terribly happened; it was as if a jet-plane started on

my left side, and drove straight through my head, leaving me in terror. This

is now 25 years ago, and I has never again any symptoms of the epilepsy;

totally cured.

This discussion is turning into a real revelation and confidential testament  of

the paths we all took to get here. Early on, and so many times, people think or

presume that great thinkers and innovators don't suffer usual things. Sometimes

thats true, but we're still fighting history, dna and environmental offences.

Our overcoming suffering can help make us more expert in helping others. Maybe

another lifetime will lessen the negative effect.

Yehuda,

I have found this as well. Generally however, there are steps one can take to

minimize the deleterious effects. For me, i establish an anchor (through NLP)

and utilize more palpation and non-insertion protocols and have found this to be

helpful as usually the individuals with this presentation have the strong

desire, but not the blood to lay the foundation if you will.

I will say one more thing that in my experience, auricular has never appeared to

be well tolerated, but then i don't needle the ear that often anyhow.

Regards, Tymothy
