Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Hi all, Diamond acupuncture? Has anyone heard of this? I've just seen it on TV and it involves acupuncture needles inserted on the face with diamonds added on top. It apparently reduces fine wrinkles. Is this just a gimmick or what? Kind regards Attilio D'Alberto Doctor of (Beijing, China) BSc (Hons) TCM MATCM 07786198900 attiliodalberto <http://www.attiliodalberto.com/> www.attiliodalberto.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Hi Attillo and All, I have done a fair amount of cosmetic acupuncture over the years and it is a simple procedure of inserting fine half inch needles on either end or threaded along the wrinkle and left for 1 hour while the client relaxes with them in. You can give other body points also dependent on pulse and tongue for qi and blood levels, but the overall effect of lessening lines can be achieved without these body points. I often include a tonic such as He Shou Wu pian or Shi Quan Da Bu Wan etc because most people complaining of lines do feel like sh.....! and really need qi, xue and shen treatments. Interestingly here in Australia, there has been some 'new' treatments for cellulite on the thighs etc. and when I saw the pictures it simply was sliding cups, but they were charging A$130 per session. I have used cupping on the upper arms of a woman who had large amounts of cellulite there. Very effective. By the way, facial treatments need to be done 3 times weekly for the first 3 weeks, going down to eventually once a week, with treatments being administered once or twice a year. You can also enlarge breasts by one cup size using acupuncture, moxa and it seems with cupping as well. (I was also given an ear acupuncture formula using electrodes to bring on orgasms, devised by a local acupuncturist who specialized in womans frigidity. Sadly he ended up in jail for malpractice for some time and I have never ventured to use the points!) I'm sure there is a busy clinical business waiting to be exploited here : ).

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Anita; Would you mind listing points / procedures for both of these?

Very effective. Hi I believe there was a warning in a post a few months ago regarding using sliding cups over cellulite. Are you using the cups lightly, just getting the skin pink? Or treating more aggressively? Cosmetic acupuncture gets some peoples hackles up, but improving self esteem can really help, better it is done by a trained acupuncturist who can work on the whole person than someone cashing in on our expertise and calling it a new wonder cure.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Anita: So I'm curious, the technique for going outsides to insides - is it outside to above to inside to below? And then vice versa for insides to outsides for increasing? And what are the " Amongst other things... " ? I ran across a qigong exercise for breast enhancement that involved bouncing up and down with the arms out stretched in front of the body while leaning forward slightly and trying to get the breasts to move in circles. A picture's worth a thousand words here..... --brian beard Anita Wrote: There is also a Daoist technique for period control which can also enlarge or decrease breast size. The technique, amongst other things entails a woman massaging her breasts in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, with palms moving from the outsides of the breasts to the insides in a circular motion to decrease and from the insides to the outsides for increasing.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 By and large one leaves the breasts alone in the healing intervention sense, and the breasts will return the compliment. Breasts are central to the substantial essence of the earth, and the heavens move by the beat they set. All pain comes from the breast, and all pleasure. Possibly these are the most ill used of the appendages of the body, having been gouged out, implanted with sand, depleted with suction, turned this way and that, mauled, billeted, buffeted, beastialized, for the express pleasure of men, who don't have any, the ones they wear being comically redundant. The ST rises at 7 AM horary time, running replete with LI Yangming qi, the transfer taking place at the nostril, on the full face as it sees Apollo rise, as he did when Alexander was a whining infant, and Socrates a wandering mendicant on Ionesian shoes. Between 7 and 9 AM it traverses literally off the head, down the face and neck, into the subclavicular pool, onto the rise of the chest, and onto the incline of the breast. At one point it reaches the areola and circuits there. As the circuits turn in ever diminishing girth, the qi refines and converges on to the raised promontory of the Universal Spout at which all the world has gained sustenance, and has despoiled in return. The qi then trembles, having nowhere to go, settled to recede on to the slope and begins the downward track to abdomen, the inguinal shallows, the raise of the thigh, the turn of the knee, onto the shin, on the dorsum of the foot, and into the toes to merge with the Dark Core of the Earth. The breast is mostly, if not wholly, Earth Yang qi, central to all awakenings, immutable, unchangeable, forever giving, never denying, the reason the manifestation lives. When the breast dies, all on earth die with her. No more molestation. Arya Holmes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
