Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Hi group In New Zealand at the moment the government insurance company is putting together an injury profile book for acupuncture with a brief background to Cause, Diagnosis, Complications and Treatment of various injuries, eg shoulder sprain. The document is under review and there is a section under complications of one of the injuries called " empty (cold) stagnation " Would anyone be able to comment on this terminology? I have never heard of " empty " stagnation? Heiko Lade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say I'm familiar with that differentiation, but it sounds like Kidney yang deficiency causing cold damp accumulation leading to stagnation of qi and local pain. For insurance purposes, " empty stagnation " seems far more practical. -- Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 what i know about stagnation is that " stagnation " can have different causes.One of the causes of " empty " stagnation could be; Qi is the driving force for the circulation of different substances in the body. If there isn't enough Qi supply to move the substances the circulation will stagnate. best wishes Rick Al Stone <al Saturday, March 25, 2006 5:56:13 AM Re: empty stagnation On 3/24/06, Heiko Lade <heikocha wrote: > The document is under review and there is a section under complications > of > one of the injuries called > > " empty (cold) stagnation " > > Would anyone be able to comment on this terminology?

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2006 Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 Heiko Long time no hear. How are you? I can only tell you how i use this term which is stagnation secondary to a primary mechanism of Def or Yang-def. I actually think it is quite common even in cases were one sees local signs of Heat.
