Guest guest Posted June 28, 2000 Report Share Posted June 28, 2000 Jim - I don't know what was referred to in the previous post BUT I can tell you that there is a micro-system of and around the eye called WU LUN BA GUO (meaning 5 flesh - eight parts). It is a system of diagnosis in part according to five element and in addition an extensive relationship to 13 divided parts of the sclera. One looks for various sizes, shapes, colors and direction of those blood vessels in accordance to diagnostic relationships. Then using acupoint insertions around the bony orbit to affect the whole. No different than any micro system in the general sense. Extremly effective for acute conditions such as lumbago.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2000 Report Share Posted June 28, 2000 Prehaps you could answer a guest ion regarding needling around the eye. As I understand it one needles at the bony orbit or the ends and medial part of the eyebrow. And another point would be directly under the pupil looking forward level with the nose. Where does one needle the point that would be near the Tear Duct / the Bridge of the Nose. Which in one system represents the kidneys.

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Welcome, Sam: We have similar histories (as do some others here). I might want to type with you offline sometime about what has worked for you/me. Sue Gridley www.coachdrgridley.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Tim: If it has been going on this long and you have not been able to get over it with working on your immune system and EFT, maybe you should get some regular medical advice, too. Keep up the energy work, though. Sue www.coachdrgridley.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Tracey do you do infant massage on your baby? If not try it, it can help a lot with " nervous tension " you may find the possibility that she will be able to sleep longer stretches.
