General harmonization

This scheme is based on so-called "Vertical meridians of Triorigin Cylindrical Spiral system"

which is is rather complex however this version is simple enough to be used by

everyone.

Points are on median lines of 4 sides of every finger (thumbs allow most fundamental action).

Location is:

--- one divides each line in half, then again each half of the line in half

--- thus one gets 5 points shown on the pic

--- the lowest points marked brown are not used and acupuncture is done on 4 points marked green.

Thus points appear on equal distances to each other.

It's esential that 4 lines have different length

so there will be different distance between points for different lines (shown on the pic) but equal for points belonging to the same line.

View from both sides.

Treatment is done in order:

--- lines: 1-2-3-4 blue numbers

--- on every line - upwards 1-2-3-4 violet
numbers near points.
This sequence is for left thumb.

Best teratment is moxibustion: heating by moxa cigar
or incense stick, holding perpendicular to each point,
equal time of 15-20 sec, sometimes longer, for each.


This has works on deeper levels because of nature of system in use. 

General vocal cords treatment in Spiral system

This may be done in Spiral System, in 8 energies:

                                                                               

This scheme is for all Gomo-conditions, including those discussed earlier.

Points are treated by their numbers.

The scheme for Hetero-conditions

Such schemes are the safest and simplest to use, just to resize the image to one's palm and mark the points.
Treatment for non-specialists may be:
--- taping natural crystals of the same colour onto
--- easy moxibustion: heating by incense stick holding it perpendicular to the points, in order by numbers,
each point for 20-30 sec or until a pleasant warm sensation at each point.
More on this and list of Su-jok methods have been in previous posts.

Simple Energy/Emotional Correction

This corrects an imbalance of energy in left and right side of body:

There is a point in the centre of a palm which makes triangles:

--- with 2 points in centre of last phalanges which correspond to legs – dark green points

--- with 2 points in centre of last phalanges which correspond to

arms  - light green poins

First triangle is used to correct imbalance felt in lower region of a body and second for upper part of a body:

--- moxibustion for all 3 points making a triangle, first the point in centre of a palm then 2 poins on the phalanges.

--- time for each point may be 20-30sec up to 2 min, or until a pleasant warm sensation

at each point.
Best to do on both hands:
--- men - first right then left
--- women - first left then right
but this sequence is not too critical.

Ovarian cysts

This may be topical for female part of singers and musicians.

Ovaries:

--- are controlled by energy of Darkness in main energy of Darkness 

(reproductive system)

--- cyctic formation is excess of harmful Dampness energy

The scheme looks as:

Darkness--->Darkness: Dampness sedate, Wind tone up, Light, Darkness control

the scheme in Nails system:

Arrows show direction of

moxibustion or needles at the 

points

Easy self-treatment is taping natural crystals of the colours shown on the pic like described in 
earlier posts.



That ovarian cysts are often accompanied by weight gain is no surprise as

this is excess of the same Dampness energy on the level of whole body.
Similar situation with often observed hormonal disorders as Dampness energy 
also controls endocrinal system.

Basic energy points and Chi-Gong

Basic energy points are special points used to raise energy, described earlier:

http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2009/11/basic-energy-points-guidance.html
http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2009/11/basic-energy-points-great-preventing.html

The points are on channels corresponding to Du-Mai and Zheng-Mai meridians in classic acupuncture. 

They are very important prior to general treatement in case of serious lack  of energy, because if there's not enough free energy to direct by main acupuncture, any treatment is waste of time. 

They are also used during treatment to energize and harmonize, and as great prophylactic tool.

Observations on how these points work led to conclusion they work similar to the well-known Chi-Gong exercise "Lesser Heaven's Circle" when energy is accumulated via circulation of Qi theough Du-Mai and Zheng-Mai channels. 

This technique is a base for most Chi-Gong traditions, and regarded in one of them as a "door which 

opens to draw one away from death".

Chronopuncture, narrowly focused

More on Time Energies use, a scheme composed with focus on the interval of several minutes for a case of  serious brain trauma from car accident: 

Traumas and cancer have the same basic energy of Cold, belonging to Yin or Gomo-group.

The scheme:

--- points 1 to 7 show time energies focusing

 to the interval of several minutes

--- points 8 and 9 relate to healing scheme, i.e.

sedate Homo or Yin group of energies, tone up

Hetero or Yang group.

--- points 10 and 11 are controlling

Other energies which may be involved in a trauma are:

--- Wind - seizures, any violent condition

--- Heat - bleeding, hematoma (together with Dampness)

--- Burn - massive bleeding, rise of intracranial pressure, rupture of tissue

--- Dampness - everything related to liquids dynamics, rise of intracranial pressure (together with Burn),

swelling, hematoma

--- Dryness - everything related to spasm, blockage

--- Cold in addition, relates to severe loss of function, serious blockage, severe disruption of blood and liquor curculation, necrosis.

Chronopuncture

The post is on theory and basic knowledge of Time Energies, the universal healing method applicable for every condition, age, sex.

 Energies of Time are the most influental on human's health.

There are:

--- Internal Time Cycles characteristic to every person which start at the moment of birth

--- External Time Cycles common for everyone reflected in calendar dates.

Both can provide invaluable info and guidance for treatment as every disease obeys the same 

energy cycles as everything else and there's no exeption, even for cancer.

Internal Time Cycles link basic Su-jok origins (energies) to periods of life:

--- 0 - 12 years - energy of Wind

--- 12 - 24 - Heat

--- 24 - 36 - Burn

--- 36 - 48 - Dampness

--- 48 - 60 - Dryness

--- 60 - 72 - Cold

Every period can be divided similarly on 6 (or 12) parts for main or individual energies and these periods

can have the same and so on allowing energy sequence to descrice any whatever small period of 

one's life.

If a disease has striken at ceratin moment, this can get it's energy characteristics and automatically

provide the acu recipe for treatment.

External Time cycles are organized similarly:

1. the 12-year cycle:

1984 -1996 - Wind, 1996 - 2008 - Heat, 2008 - 2020 - Burn etc

2. the years within, for example, 1996 - 2008:

--- 1996 - 1998 - Wind, and 1996-97 is A or Yang Wind, 1997-98 is UM-or Yin Wind

--- 1998 - 200 - Heat and the same for Yin and Yang years

... ... ...

--- 2006 - 2008 - Cold

3. monthes:

--- Febr+March - Wind, febr is Yang and March is Yin

--- April+May - Heat, the same

--- June+July - Burn

--- August+September - Dampness

--- October+November - Dryness

--- December+January - Cold

4. a month consists of 5-days periods:

--- 1-5 day - Wind

--- 5 - 10 - Heat and

--- 10 -15 - Burn 

.... .... .... 

--- 25 - 30 - Cold

If there are 31 days in a month, one extra day is added to Burn period, and if 28 or 29 days, then

Cold period has just 3 or 4 days instead of 5.

5. days within 5-days period:

--- they go in sequence: 

Wind--->Heat--->Dampness--->Dryness--- Cold. i.e.

1-st, 6-th, 11-th belond to energy of Wind, 4-th, 9-th, 14-th belong to Dryness and so on.

Thus the disease can be characterized by energies of the day, hour or even a minute it appeared,

for example, in case of traumas from an accident, which allows to focus the healing energy in a very narrow

moment of time like body mapping in Space Energies allows for disease location.

For example, acu recipe and a scheme to treat psychol. trauma of September 11:

 http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2010/02/timeback-september-11.html

This can be done for any disease with known moment of appearance, for example, a case

of leukemia:

Heat--->Cold--->Cold--->Cold--->Cold: Gomo (root cancer energy) sedate, Hetero (opposite energy) tone up, Light control

Overstrain

This will describe 2 subjects:

--- insomnia

--- adrenal exhaustion

as they are rather common consequences of overstrain.

For the first, this is rare situation when the scheme has sedation of Neitro or Light

energy, and tone up of Neito:

 The basic version of treatment of insomnia induced by too

much "social" activity like overwork.

There may be lighter and stronger versions of the previous:

First has only Neito tone up and Neitro
as harmonization.
Second makes the action stronger by adding
Gomo point.





The strong scheme was composed for the right thumb, chronic case.

The scheme for adrenal exhaustion:

The scheme demonstrates light
action as working on endocrinal glands
is quite subtle and sensitive matter.







The treatment for non-professionals:
--- marking the points by colours
--- attaching stones of the same colour
--- heating points in a sequence by 3 incense sticks tied together, perpendicular to them. each for 1 min
or until pleasant warmth sensation in them.

Vision loss, optic nerve degeneration

A scheme for vision loss due to optic nerve degeneration:

 This scheme is for functional 

disorders

The treatment backgrounds and tools have been described earlier.

The scheme in Spiral System:

Varicouse veins

Overweight is rather common among opera singers and varicouse veins treatment may

be quite topical.

Varicouse veins location may be on different sides of leg and on other parts of body 

so below is the general scheme to treat it as Dampness - Gomo excess in veins - Gomo

part of cardiovascular system in Triorigin:

The scheme in right hand is generally 

for chronic cases for both men and women

However there may be cases when women are best treated on left hand for both acute 

and chronic cases, the same scheme for left hand:

Treatment in Triorigin and tools have been described earlier.

Hearing loss

Human senses belong to the main energy of Burn, sublevel of Wind.

Individual senses have their own energies:

--- sight - Burn

--- hearing - Heat

--- smell - Wind,
etc.

Treatment will be described for loss of function of cochlea:

Cold (gradual loss of function) sedation, Burn (opposite energy) tone up, on index finger left hand.

The same scheme may be done in Triorigin


For the problems of cochlear nerve:
--- point 2 goes onto point of Burn or Light
--- one does the scheme drawn for index finger left hand, on the middle finger left hand.

In case of severe function loss or complete loss of hearing one needs higher level of action and use of
controlling Neitro and Neito energies.
Neito in particular is total absence of function so one sedates Neito and tones up Neitro: index finger
with 2 violet points.
In such case it's reasonable to also treat chakras, for non-specialists there can be scheme to
heat by moxa the Heat external chakra in Diamond Energy system:

Guitarists - nails problems

Nails are related to the main energy of Dryness, and all treatment may be on index finger

right hand.

Yellowish colouring, thickening of nails - excess of

Dampness, treatment at left.

Brittle, prone to cracks nails - excess of Dryness

Rough deformations of nails - excess of Cold

The scheme in Triorigin which comprises all above cases:

If there's a chronic case of crack which reacts poorly for conventional med treatment, like

non-healed bone fracture, one needs to use scheme to force the crack to close:

  Combination of this and Triorigin scheme with 2 red points

Acupuncture regardless of a particular disease

1. Constitution energies.

Everyone has his own Energy constitution from the moment of birth with certain energies

in excess and certain insufficient, 6 Qi System:

 This determines the general tendency to a particular type of diseases, emotional and mental portrait etc.

If one has excess of:

--- Burn: prone to put on weight, effluent emotionally or creativity/imagination on mental level

--- Dryness: pale complextion, punctuality, curcumspection

--- Cold: catches cold easily or cold hands, feet etc.

There will be general lack of:

---Wind, Heat, Dampness

This gives acu recipe to correct on fundamental level:

sedate Burn, Dryness, Cold, tone up Wind, Heat and Dampness

in many cases this gives better results then addressing the disease.

There are complex conditions like diabetes with a lot of organs and systems affected,

and such general energy correction gives vivid improvement which has been shown by

a number of Su-jok sources.

Done as a prophylactic, this makes one more resistant to any type of disease one is prone to.

The most complex disease to treat is the drug addiction and it's even hard to give a general
recipe for it.

However if compensate the lacking energies in energy constitution, this often gives rapid 

improvement.

2. The Time energies.

There's been example of healing by the moment of time the problem appeared:

http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2010/02/emotional-traumas-timeback.html 

http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2010/02/timeback-september-11.html

There is ancient and powerful healing by just one needle, the Open Point, which is also in Su-jok.
General idea is to syncronize one's energies with certain "standards" like adjusting the clocks via standard
time.
One of such is the "24 hours external time energies cycle":
--- 2.00 - 6.00 - energy of Wind
--- 6.00 - 10.00 - energy of Heat
--- 10.00 - 14.00 - energy of Burn
--- 14.00 - 18.00 - energy of Dampness
--- 18.00 - 22.00 - energy of Dryness
--- 22.00 - 2.00 - energy of Cold

For example, harmonization for the Heat point on Heat meridian at 6.00 - 10.00  will correct
any condition during this time period:
--- marking the point by green + massage
--- taping green natural crystals onto+massage
--- moxibition with cigar parpendicular to the point

 The problem is, the local time works well for those who reside in the same place, generally there should be calculations regarding the time zones, and for touring musicians the situation is more complex.







3. The basic energy points to raise energy and immune responce:

http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2009/11/basic-energy-points-great-preventing.html

Timeback, September 11

General info in previous post, healing of emotional trauma:

Treatment described in previous post.

The scheme in Spiral System:

Emotional traumas, "timeback"

There is special technique for deep-residing, long-lasting conditions like chronic traumas,
stroke aftermath, and emotional traumas by dealing with the moment it happened.
The idea in brief.
Some conditions may last for years and decades since the harmful moment like traumas with local areas
of constant pain, inflammation etc which shows some independence from the body like sort of
"parasite".
Su-jok can determine the energy characteristics of such areas from some characteristics of the
moment it happened.
Example of treatment for traumatic moment, the DC-8 Valujet plane crash in Florida in 1996:

Points are touching nails from outside,
2-3 mm size, at 45* to each other.One passes from point to point by numbers.
Depression is Dryness - Gomo in Triorigin so the recipe:
--- sedate Gomo, tone up Hetero






The treatment:
--- marking the points in corresponding colours
--- massage by smth like round tip of a pencil
--- taping natural crystals of the same colours onto points, size 2-3 mm, more in:
 http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2010/02/self-treatment-toos.html
--- moxibustion, easy version: by incense stick, holding it prependicular to points at comfortable
distance, 1-2 cm, in order by numbers, for 0.5-2 min for each point or until pleasant warm sensation
at each point.

All schemes in harmonization mode

All posted schemes (and all which will be posted) may be done only in green points - 

all red, blue etc points changed to green.

This turns sedation-tone up schemes into harmonization schemes and may give certain
advantages if for example:

--- the standard scheme works too strong or invokes discomfort

--- the idea is to introduce the body to healing or get general impression on how the

composed scheme works.

Sequence of points and order of work on them stays the same, and the treatment simplifies:

--- only green crystals to tape onto points

--- one can use very eficient method of taping plant seeds onto the points and all seeds are

of the same sort, the best seems the small asian green pea known in Central Asia countries as "mash", 

more details in
 http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2010/02/self-treatment-toos.html 

--- all needles are perpendicular and moxa cigars also kept perpendicular to all points

which makes treatment for non-specialists much more easy to do.

Self-treatment - tools

In brief:

1.Marking tne points by a colour pen. This "colours" the light radiating

on the particular point to the colour of the spot determining

the action: red - usually (but not always!) tone up, blue - sedation,

green - harmonization.

The mildest method used for children.

2. Massage of points, can be done by a round tip of a pencil.
This is also good to do if points have crystals or plant seeds taped on them, right
by massaging the crystals/seeds.

3.Taping natural crystals or plant seeds onto. For the first, there's a specific

way the crystal alters ones energy at the point making it work for healing.

Plant seeds not only modulate the energy at the point but also give in the

energy stored inside for their growth making one generally stronger.

Very valuable methods for chronic conditions as the crystals/seeds work 24/7

so far they're attached to the skin. However the seeds are to be changed

for fresh ones after 12-24 hours, and crystals treated in salted water, 1 teaspoon
for a glass, 24 hours.

4.Small magnets. Their magn field not recognisable by a human begins

being felt (and sometimes very strongly - up to fainting) when atached onto

the acu point. South pole tones up, North -sedates. Sold in Su-jok

acu shops.

5. Moxibustion - heating by moxa cigar or just an incense stick.
The most versatile and powerful tool (my opinion).

Indispensable in case of bad energy lack;  moxibition of basic points

(earlier posts) is standard treatment for the first several Su-jok acu sessions.

Many techniques, only the simplest recommended for non-specialists.

Especially valuable for "Cold" diseases like, kidneys stones, traumas, cancer,

drug addiction.

False vocal cords

One of their function is to wet the true vocal cords which doesn't have their own glands which is

very important for normal function of vocal cords (folds).

There can be mapping for them on the palm - ventricular folds:

In Triorigin, according to the anatomy on this particular

picture.

In 8 Qi.

One can map the points from the laryngoscopic

image of his larynx.

If there is lack of their wetting function, the acupuncture recipe is:

--- sedate Wind (maybe also Heat or Burn)
--- tone up Dampness

Laringitis

Laringitis is caused by harmful energies of:

 General symptomes:

--- fever - Heat

--- runny nose - Dampness

--- sore, scratchy throat - Dryness 

--- achiness, and fatigue  - Cold

 Changes for vocal cords:

--- Heat - inflammation

--- Burn or Dampness  - swelling

--- Dryness - voice sounds strained, hoarse, and raspy

--- Cold - reddening in 8 Qi, achiness, also the energy of the virus

Also, that vocal cords may not fully close at phonation indicates excess of Gomo energies;

Dampness, Dryness and Cold

General treatment may be done on 5-th boyl-chakra.

For non-specialists there can be treatment in Nails system or in local system. 

There's a variety of symptomes/energies involved, so it's good to work in Triorigin:

This scheme is to sedate Gomo energies:

--- Dampness

--- Dryness

--- Cold

Gomo-symptomes generally prevail so this can be the basic scheme, in addition it fights

the origin of the disease the virus energy, Cold.

 

If prevailing symptomes are fever, inflammation, sense of burning, i.e energies of Heat and Burn - Hetero, there will be 2 blue points instead of red:

Sedate Hetero, tone up Ho:

So one can alternate schemes to treat the leading group of symptomes at the

moment.

The same can be done on vocal cords schemes on palms:

Points are the same for all zones as shown for 

Dampness sone.

So, to sedate Cold and tone up Burn one can

--- sedate Gomo tone up Hetero on Burn zones,

--- sedate Gomo on Cold and tone up Hetero on

Burn  zone

There's no problem for specialists to determine the zones and points for each case.

One may use the scheme like:

Non-specialists may work on the whole zones:

1 --- moxibition for zones of Cold, Heat, Burn, Dryness, keeping cigar/insence stick just perpendicular to the skin and listening at what zone there will be max responce like ease of achness, 

running nose etc, general energy description at the beginning of the post. 

2 --- apply Burn remedies or aroma oils, like the anticancer remedy, first of all on Gomo zones i.e.

Dampness, Dryness, Cold.

If inflammation/fever is severe better to avoid putting remedy on Heat and Burn zones, instead one

may do this onto Wind zone.

3 --- Treatment close to professional by moxibition:

To sedate, one needs to keep the moxa cigar/incense stick  

--- at angle of 30-40* to the palm and 

--- cigar oriented towards the Cold or Gomo point, the same for every zone which needs sedation.

To tone up a zone

--- the same 30-40* to the skin

--- one orients the cigar/incense stick towards the Burn or Hetero point on a particular 

zone.

For example, for the first pic:

--- to sedate Cold the cigar oriented directed towards the wrist on Cold zone

--- to tone up Burn it's directed towards fingers

All zones on this image are oriented the same way.

For the second pic zones are oriented differently at left and right:

--- to sedate Heat, Wind or Burn orientation is towards the wrist, to tone up them - to the fingers

--- to sedate Cold orientation is towards the fingers

 So one works by moxa going back and forth along the zone keeping it at right angle until pleasant

warm sensation.

Use of general points mapping on vocal cords zones:

According to the recipes given earlier.

To sedate Gomo, tone up Hetero:

--- one marks both red and blue points in red, green points in green

--- tapes natural crystals of the same colours onto

--- does moxibition

Moxibition may be easy even on professional level:

1--- to tone up Hetero, sedate Gomo one keeps the moxa at 

30-40* to the skin

--- blue - Gomo point - cigar towards the wrist

--- red - Hetero point - cigar towards the fingers

To sedate Hetero, tone up Gomo - vice versa.

For both green points - cigar perpendicular to the palm.

Treatment in a "local" system:

Sedate Gomo, tone up Hetero, Neitro, Neito control

Hetero sedate, Gomo tone up, Neitro, Neito control

Treatment in Triorigin the same as described earlier

Capral tunnel syndrome

Compression of the median nerve may be interpreted as harmful energy of Dryness and Cold.

Pain also relate to Dryness and Cold energies.

The scheme in energies:

Burn (nerv. system)--->Burn or Wind(hand)---> Cold: Dryness, Cold sedate, Heat, Burn tone up
or Gomo sedate, Hetero tone up

The region for the location of disease at the centre of the palm is mapped differently than described earlier 

and falls into Cold energy, mapping the same as for fingers in

http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2010/01/for-musicians-fingers-problems.html

This is confirmed by:

1. the anatomy of the region gives tendency to compress the median nerve which is quoted in med sources,

and is the main feature of Cold energy

2. that the symptomes grow when one bends wrists - this position is "Cold" if take the wrist full movement 

and divide it into phases

3. developing capral tunnel syndrome usually begins to bother one at night which is time of Cold in a

24 hours energy curculation.

Quoted from med sources are the conditions which raise chances to get capral tunnel syndrome:

---rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases - disease of Cold - Gomo condition 

--- hypothyroidism, fluid is retained in tissues - Gomo condition 

--- Tumors (usually benign), such as a ganglion or a lipoma - Dampness energy (at the beginning) - Gomo condition

--- Obesity also increases the risk of CTS: individuals who are classified as obese (BMI > 29) are 2.5 times more likely than slender individuals (BMI < 20) to be diagnosed with CTS.

Obesity is Dampness - Gomo condition.

All the conditions have Gomo energy: Cold, Dampness or Dryness as basic which explains why they

can induce a capral tunnel symdrome, Cold disease - Gomo condition.

The scheme in Nails system:

To focus on a particular hand, there should be 1 more point in the scheme:

Burn (nerv. system)--->Burn or Wind---> Wind---> Cold: 
for
--- left hand - for men,
--- right hand - for women
Burn (nerv. system)--->Burn or Wind---> Cold---> Cold:  
--- left hand - for women,
--- right hand - for men

Musicians: hand changes with age

Changes in organs, systems etc with age are due to general growth of energy of Cold

in body, at certain level there begin agening changes in body tissues.

The scheme for arthritis discused earlier is aimed to fight pathological energy of Cold

in hand bones/joints so it will work to slow down agening process:

Wind--->Cold: Homo sedate, Hetero tone up








There can be more detailed versions, like working on
--- muscles/tendons - energy of Wind
--- connective tissue/cartillage - Dryness
--- maybe local blood supply also - Heat

Treatment has been described earlier:
--- marking the points
--- massage of points in the sequence
--- taping natural crystals of the same colour, size doesn't matter much, optimal is
size of points i.e 2-3 mm

Changes with age for singers involve all those systems responsible for sound formation i.e diaphragm,

lungs, "singers muscles", vocal cords etc so the picture may be very complex.

Wind---> Heat--->Burn--->Dampness--->Dryness--->Cold

As agening is accumulation of Cold, the best treatment will be

methods using Heat/Burn energies:

--- aroma oils/remedies with main energy of Heat/Burn like the anticancer remedy: 
125 ml of blackseed oil and 135g of finely grinded blackseed.

--- direct source of heat - moxibustion.

For musicians - arthritis 2

Arthritis is harmful energy of Cold in bones - Cold,  so it's good to treat Kidneys

and Bladder:

There can be moxibition, application of anticancer remedy etc.

The finger for everyone may be the finger of Cold,

the ring finger right hand.










Zones on the phalanges:

Treatment described earlier

For musicians - arthritis

Arthritis brings a lot of suffering and is especially devastating for musicians depriving

them of their profession.

What official medicine can offer shows very mixed results and usually some (to

substantial) loss of function or ability to play remains even after years of treatment.

In Su-jok arthritis is quite "simple" disease which is caused by harmful energy of

Cold (the same origin for kidney stones, heart attack, cancer).

Suffering joints belong to bone system which is governed also by Cold energy

and Kidneys/Bladder among inner organs, which, on the other hand, makes it

very persistent and tend to reside deep as energy of the System and disease are 

the same.

The scheme in energies:

Cold (bones system)--->Burn (Hands): Cold sedate, Wind, Burn tone up, Light, Darkness control

Practical ready-to-use schemes for hand arthritis illustrating work in Nails system:

 Scheme1:

1 - Cold-->Burn

2 - Cold sedate

3 - Wind tone up

4 - Burn tone up

5 - Light control

6 - Darkness control

Points are going around nails touching flesh from outside, size 2-3 mm, at 45* to each other

in 8 Qi system.

The sequence of points and what each does is  at right of the image;

--- point 1 is transitional directing healing energy to hands

--- points 2,3,4, are healiing arthritis by sedating Cold, tone up Burn (the opposite energy)

and also Wind in this scheme, giving starting impulse to healing among other issues.

The scheme on ring finger left hand may be in Triorigin energies which is easier (and safer) to do:

In Triorigin, all Hetero energies

--- Wind, Heat and Burn 

get one representative point - Hetero, at left

All Gomo energies i.e

Dampness Dryness, Cold

get a Gomo point, at right


So to sedate Cold and tone up Burn/Wind one needs to 
sedate Gomo and tone up Hetero, Neitro (Light) control

Hetero is marked by red colour, Gomo is blue so in the image both Triorigin points are marked in red
which tones up Hetero (native colour) and sedates Gomo (opposite colour)
Marking 2 points blue means sedate Hetero, tone up Gomo. 
Green point in this scheme is Neitro controlling point


So practical treatment is: 
--- going from point to point and from finger to finger in sequence by numbers.
--- marking the points in colours shown on the by a colur pen for example:
for  8 Qi scheme: Wind is green, Burn is blue. Marking both Cold and Burn in blue sedates Cold (opposite colour) and tones up Burn (native colour), Wind as green gets tone up.
One may alternatively use Triorigin points for the ring finger left hand, other points/fingers and sequence
of work is the same.
--- massage for the points by something like round tip of pencil. Usually one finds several points
sensitive to very painful so more massage to them


--- taping natural crystals of the same colours - green, red, blue etc. They may be carried for 0.5 to several hours, up to 24 hours a day. However one needs to treat crystals in salted water 1 teaspoon for a glass, for 24 hours so it's reasonable to have 2 sets of crystals for non-stop treatment.

It's good to massage the points right by the crystals taped onto.

--- acu by needles and moxibustion

Acupuncture for arthritis can be shown  in details.

In Su-jok sedation/tone up by needles/moxas is done by needles or moxas direction onto
the point, which makes energy flow in a meridian slow down or speed up.
For the scheme 1:

The image for point 1 - needle or moxa is perpendicular
onto the point.

The points on ring finger, colour dots - view
