Acid reflux

Acid reflux can trouble voice and is known to be linked to vocal cords paresis.
Direct cause of this is improper work of the Lower Esophageal Sphincter valve (LES).
Mapping of esophagus and it's muscles in a stomach system:
Heat--->Dampness (stomach)--->Heat (esophagus)--->Wind (muscles): No harmonization


to address all possible problems altogether through No point, or more generally:
Heat--->Dampness --->Wind (muscles in stomach system): No harmonization 

right hand, chronic case.

 








Another approach aims at energy ban on the abnormal path for acid upward, where chain of energies  describe this:
Heat-Dampness (stomach)--->Burn (stomach cardia)--->Heat (esophagus)--->Wind (throat): No (termination) tone up

Immune system: general balancing and strengthening

Schemes to balance and strengthen immune system.
In 8 Qi:

The Nails system: 8 points at 45* to each other on flesh around nails:
--- points are worked on in a sequence
--- needles are perpendicular to all
points.



This scheme is good for self-treatment:
--- marking points by green colour pen
--- heating points in a sequence by 3 incense sticks tied together perpendicular to all points
at comfortable distance to have constant pleasant flow of heat, each for 1 min
--- one can also tape natural green crystals size 2-3 mm onto each point either after heating or before this,
heating crystals right through the tape which is to be thin enough.
Crystals may be taped for 0.5 to several hours.


Triorigin scheme for the same with more fundamental action:






--- brown points - needles perpendicular
Self-treatment is the same as
previous.

Both schemes can be used for any condition and as general prophylactic
and strengthening of immune system.

Tan Jing II

General schemes to support vocal cords and for all Yin conditions
have been described in details in:
http://acupunctureforsingers.blogspot.com/2011/12/soinam-wangmo-amazing-voice-ii.html 

 


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

With these simple versions of schemes the singer's emotional world will also get
more balanced, not sacrificing any of emotional power and expression in singing.

The scheme for ms.Tan Jing voice:

--- points points 1,2,3 direct energy to vocal cords
--- 4 green points on little finger are Triorigin points, which in such schemes may occur anywhere on the line The points are used in harmonization mode: 
--- needles and moxibustion perpendicular
Besides general prophylactic for voice, such scheme can balance voice features making singing easier and more enjoyable for listeners
Due to special features of such Triorigin schemes they can never do harm.

The scheme is simple enough for self-treatment:
--- marking the points by colour pen
--- taping on green natural crystals, 2-3 mm size for 1,2,3,8 and smaller ones where needed, for 4,5,6,7,
 by thin medicine tape. Crystals size doesn't matter much.
--- heating crystals right through the tape by 3 incense sticks tied together, in a sequence,
perpendicular to all points at comfortable distance to have constant flow of heat, 1 min for each
or until a pleasant warmth at each point.
Crystals then may be kept for up to 24 hours, then putting crystals in salted water 1 teaspoon of salt 
for a glass, for 24 hours.

Self-treatment by needles is rather easy: one may use any plant thorns like those of a rose, acacia,
or even pine or spruce needles and no need to prick the skin at all: 
--- washing them of dust
--- making small holes in a pieces of medicine tape
--- inserting needles - all perpendicular, into the holes and taping this onto points so that tips of needles touch skin at the points.
Keeping needles for 20-30 min, then one may tape natural crystals as above.
  
The scheme for basic energy points and general analysis of her singing tells several alarming things:
--- she seems to be a bit of a perfectionist and tends to exploit her energies to sound better 
to share her passion for singing to listeners
--- much support from her native audience seems to inspire her to for more dedication to best singing.
Too much of this like expression, Yang, exploits Yin energy, which is also body energy reserves.
So far Yin is basement and support, the growing debt may once make the basement for singing suffer or even crash, which may rob of both good performance and even health in general.
