ACUPUNCTURE REDUCES STRESS & ANXIETY

"Stress is inevitable. Suffering is optional."  Acupuncture is a powerful reliever of STRESS!

researchers demonstrated that acupuncture was 85.7% effective at treating patients with Generalized Anxiety Disorder with no negative side effects.

NAVY PSYCHIATRIST USES ACUPUNCTURE

Navy psychiatrist Capt. Robert L. Koffman uses acupuncture to help veterans with healing of body and mind. Psychological wounds are a increasingly prevalent concern for doctors and their patients. Depression effects 20% of service members who have served in Iraq or Afghanistan according to a study by Rand Corporation. Capt. Robert L. Koffman brought men and women to his hospital clinic in Afghanistan with the promise that Acupuncture would help them relax, release tension and sleep better. “Nobody sleeps in Afghanistan,” Koffman said. Once I relieved their physical aches and pains and helped them relax they would be able to discuss what was bothering them most....

REPORTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

Patricia Piant Integrative Medicine Practitioner from North Shore University Health System says "Acupuncture can serve as a tremendous stress reliever. Many people who have treatment for an injury or other condition are often surprised by how relaxed they feel after an Acupuncture treatment. I have patients who tell me it is the only time of the week they are relaxed."
 

SCIENTIFIC REPORTS

 

According to a Yale Medical School study acupuncture was shown to significantly reduce stress, as measured by blood pressure, state anxiety, heart rate, and electrodermal activity. Additionally, in a double blind, placebo-controlled study published in 1998, researchers demonstrated that acupuncture was 85.7% effective at treating patients with Generalized Anxiety Disorder with no negative side effects.

God-Validation in Counseling

Validation brings closeness and intimacy in our relationship with other people and within us.  Lacking it inevitably causes disconnection and loneliness.

As counselors, we assist clients by providing two kinds of validations (validation of others and self-validation) through empathy, reminders, facilitating awareness, teaching, coaching, etc.

Other-validation:

Seeking validation from others is something that we have been familiar with throughout our life.  It is a crucial need to be witnessed and acknowledged by the people around us.  A child wearing a superman costume shouting, “Mommy, look at me.  I am a superman!” while jumping from one chair to another is one form of reflecting our need of other-validation.  It is the same need in a conflict with our spouse that drives us to try so hard for our spouse to understand our inner world so that we feel understood. As a result, when validation is received from other people, we feel hopeful and sense loved.

Self-validation:

While other-validation is deeply connected with our need to be heard, known, and felt deeply, what would happen when we live our life depending heavily on other-validation? What about when other-validation is lacking in our lives?  When this occurs, we often notice that people become detached, resentful, and perhaps, unknowingly invite abuse into their lives. As a result, people become sick and are likely to self-medicate with addictive behaviors and other harmful automatic thoughts.

Consequently, knowingly or unknowingly, most of us (adults and children) develop another kind of validation—self-validation—when other-validation is lacking.  We tell ourselves, “You can do it” when we are scared and “I am lovable” when we feel unworthy. Self-validation can work well as a second-line of defense when other-validation is absent. However, there are also drawbacks such as excessive practicing (going above the threshold) self-validation may lead to narcissism, isolation, and destructive behaviors including addictions.

God-validation in counseling:

Validation is about our identity and the existence of self.  Both self-validation and other-validation are useful (if not done excessively) but may not go very far or last in the long-term because the provision is often not sufficient, not consistent and often conditional. The biggest drawback is that both of the validations mostly connect with the “learned identities” (in terms of worldly images, values, beliefs, etc. that are associated with different roles) instead of the “original identity” (images that were created in God’s image).  In my opinion, the long-lasting and true healing is only achieved by God-validation, which brings reconciliation and intimacy with God (John 4:13-14).

Study: Family-Based Therapy Can Aid Those With Anorexia -Teaching parents to help their children with eating behaviors may lead to faster weight gain, researchers say

WEDNESDAY, Sept. 24, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Family-based therapies can benefit teens with the eating disorder anorexia nervosa, a new study suggests.

"The take-away message for parents is that, first, there is good treatment available for their child who is struggling with anorexia," study author Dr. Stewart Agras, professor emeritus of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University, said in a university news release.

"Second, the preferred treatment is family-based therapy in which parents help their child regain weight," Agras added. Read more at http://consumer.healthday.com/mental-health-information-25/child-psychology-news-125/study-family-based-therapy-can-aid-those-with-anorexia-692008.html#

Eating Disorders May Start in Elementary School -They're often linked with other mental health issues, researchers say

Canadian researchers evaluated 215 children, aged 8 to 12, with eating problems. More than 15 percent of the kids made themselves vomit occasionally, and about 13 percent had bulimic-like behaviors. Fifty-two percent of the children had been hospitalized at least once due to their eating problem, and 48 percent had been received outpatient treatment, the researchers said.

Bulimia is an eating disorder characterized by eating and purging, usually by vomiting or using laxatives. Read more at http://consumer.healthday.com/mental-health-information-25/child-psychology-news-125/eating-disorders-may-start-in-elementary-school-692543.html#

Demi Lovato Gets Vocal About Mental Illness - Diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2011, pop singer is spearheading new awareness campaign

"I was young and successful and I was looking up at the venue where I was about to play, where I would be able to live out my dreams, something I dreamed of for years, and yet I was crying in the bus," Lovato, now 22, recalled. "I was feeling empty and for some reason I was feeling hopeless, even though I had hope right in front of me."
-------------------------------------------------------
"About 44 million adults are affected, and yet so many of them are not able to access treatment or they have not begun the process of seeking it out," said Allen Doederlein, president of the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance, one of the five national mental health advocacy groups collaborating on the new initiative. "Understanding that these are serious, real conditions, but also conditions that people can and do achieve wellness within, is really what this is all about. We want to make sure people speak up and get help, and lead thriving lives because they've done so."

Acupuncture and women’s health: an overview of the role of acupuncture and its clinical management in women’s reproductive health.

Acupuncture and women’s health: an overview of the role of acupuncture and its clinical management in women’s reproductive health.

Women having difficulty conceiving may want to turn to acupuncture. A recent review suggests that acupuncture treatments can support fertility and help with a range of gynecological conditions.

The narrative review, by Cochrane et al. (2014), discusses the results of more than 300 papers on acupuncture’s use in women’s health and the mechanisms by which it works to promote reproductive function. Preliminary evidence from the review supports the use of acupuncture for women with many gynecological conditions, including menstrual irregularity, menstrual pain, premenstrual syndrome, ovulatory dysfunction, and infertility.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture

The term “acupuncture” describes a family of procedures involving the stimulation of points on the body using a variety of techniques. The acupuncture technique that has been most often studied scientifically involves penetrating the skin with thin, solid, metallic needles that are manipulated by the hands or by electrical stimulation. Practiced in China and other Asian countries for thousands of years, acupuncture is one of the key components of traditional Chinese medicine.

Although millions of Americans use acupuncture each year, often for chronic pain, there has been considerable controversy surrounding its value as a therapy and whether it is anything more than placebo. Research exploring a number of possible mechanisms for acupuncture’s pain-relieving effects is ongoing.

Eating disorders during adolescence may have lasting socioeconomic consequences for women

In a recent study, females with eating disorders in late adolescence were more likely to have lower levels of educational attainment and personal income in early adulthood. They were also less likely to own a home. These associations were not seen in males.

Disordered eating behaviors may set some individuals on a different trajectory whereby they do not have the same life chances or opportunities for success in adulthood

What is Acupuncture (針灸) ?

Acupuncture is an ancient practice of medicine. It originated over 2,500 years ago. The procedure of acupuncture has been used to treat and relieve symptoms of a wide range of diseases and conditions. Some of the conditions including headache, stress management, high blood pressure, arthritis, sciatica, varies pain management, reduce chemo side effects, and Mental Health issues, such as Anxiety, Depression and Insomnia, etc.

Apart from insertion of needles, which is used of pre-sterilized, disposable acupuncture needles or lancets to directly or indirectly stimulate acupuncture point and meridians. other treatments that can go parallel with Acupuncture are:

• Moxibustion (艾條) : a soft woolly mass prepared from ground young leaves, typically in form of sticks or cones, which are ignited and placed on or close to the skin or used to heat acupuncture needles.

• Electrical, Mechanical or Magnetic Stimulation of Acupuncture Points (電療): Using very small amounts of electricity to stimulate acupuncture points and meridians or using mechanical or magnetic devices to stimulate acupuncture points or meridians.

• Acupressure (指壓穴位): Traditional Chinese medical massage and manual therapy.

• Cupping (拔罐): Glass cups are placed on the skin with a vacuum created by heat or suction device. 

• Dermal-friction Technique (Gua-sha) (刮痧): Friction is applied topically to the skin using a smooth object like ceramic spoon to relieve symptoms.  Mostly is used for common colds.

• Infrared heat: Applying heat generated by an infrared lamp over a specific area of the body.

• Dietary Advice and Health Education Based on East Asian Medical Theory (食療): Suggestions for nutrition and herbal food products including herbs, vitamins, minerals, and dietary and nutritional supplements.

•  East Asian Massage and Tui-Na (推拿): Bodywork characterized by kneading, pressing, rolling, shaking, and stretching of the body.  This does not include spinal manipulation.

• Superficial Heat and Cold Therapy (熱冷治療法): Applied heat or cold pads on the affected area if needed.

• Liniments, Oils, and Plasters (藥膏): herbal formulas applied topically to the skin.

The tradition of acupuncture theory believes that energy flows within the human body through channels. This energy flow is called qi (氣). Acupuncture theory believes that this qi moves throughout the body along 12 main channels known as meridians (經絡). These meridians represent the major organs and functions of the body. Please understand the meridians are not followed the exact pathways like the nerves or the veins.   Please also note that the organs that we mentioned in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) are not the same as the Western Medicine.

I would like to introduce another technique that I frequently used to treat varies pain and achieved very good result with it. Patient responded to it very well and it’s called Die-Da (Hit medicine) 跌打?

• Chinese Hit Medicine  (Traumatology) - 跌打

The hit medicine originated with martial arts masters, who needed medicine to heal wounds and speed the healing of their students or combatants so they could learn more quickly, recover more quickly, and get back out to battle sooner.  It is a technique very similar with Tui-Na, which explained above but it also included herbal plaster and herbal ointment to speed up the healing process or reduce the pain.

There are varies forms of ointments that we used to achieve ideal healing. It includes:

• Die-Da Jiu - 跌打酒

Which literally translates to “fall hit wine”. Die-Da Jiu is made from Chinese herbs that are soaked in the wine for a long time to extract out the constituents of the herbs to achieve pain relive properties.  A traditional jiu shouldn’t provide any particular sensation when being applied except slightly cooling sensation as the alcohol evaporates.  When applied the jiu, you should notice the pain is slowly disappeared.  Theory is to improve the blood circulation in the affected area.  There is a saying in Chinese- Tong Ze Bu Tong, Ze Tong Bu Tong 痛則不通 ，通則不痛 - Where there is pain there is no flow, where there is flow there is no pain.

• Die-Da Yon - 跌打油 

Translate as  “fall hit oil”.  It is wintergreen oil based and has similar effects as Die-Da Jiu but it penetrates into the muscles and effective area faster and remain in your body longer than wine.

Whether you are a martial artist or an athlete, frequently injured or bruising in one area can create accumulations of stagnant qi and blood, which can lead to serious health problems as you age. Die-Da Jiu or Die-Da Yon can disperse these accumulations and promote a healthy body and longer career even the injured occurred long time ago, the Die-Da Yon or Jiu can still help to recover.

Acupuncture Relieve Pain - New Research Gives Insight Into How Acupuncture May Relieve Pain

Acupuncture Relieve Pain

- New Research Gives Insight Into How Acupuncture May Relieve Pain

Acupuncture—an ancient healing practice that has shown promise in treating chronic pain—typically involves a period of active needle stimulation, followed by a longer period of rest. It appears that the analgesic (pain-relieving) effects of acupuncture may actually peak long after the active stimulation ends. In the first study of its kind, NCCAM-supported researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital, Logan College of Chiropractic, and Kyunghee University (Korea) evaluated the effects of acupuncture on brain activity following active stimulation.
The researchers used functional magnetic resonance imagery (fMRI) to monitor brain activity in 15 healthy adults before and after true acupuncture and sham acupuncture. The procedure lasted 150 seconds, and the rest period was 5.5 minutes. They also monitored heart rate and respiration and surveyed the subjects on their perception of pain and other sensations (such as deqi, unique sensations experienced in connection with acupuncture and considered to be signs of its effectiveness).
Analysis of the fMRI images showed that following true acupuncture—but not sham—there were increased connections among the parts of the brain involved in the perception and memory of pain. The subjects also reported stronger sensations with true acupuncture than with sham. The researchers conclude that acupuncture changes resting-state brain activity in ways that may account for its analgesic and other therapeutic effects.
