Lhasa OMS invites you to their event
About this event
Join Lhasa OMS as we host Poney Chiang PhD R.TCMP, Dipl.OM (NCCAOM) to discuss The Value of E-Stim in Unifying Classical and Anatomical Acupuncture Perspectives.
As the oldest point location manual inherited to date, the Jia Yi Jing (JYJ) describes the location of 349 points. All modern point locations can trace their locations to those described by the JYJ. Based on the presenter’s cadaver research and e-stim confirmation on healthy subjects, there is strong evidence to support the need to re-interpret and revise at least a quarter of modern points locations. Results show that 90% of JYJ’s point locations precisely map over nerve trunks, nerve division points, individual branches, motor nerves entry point into muscles and sensory nerves exit points from superficial fascia. Neuro-anatomical research findings for LU-7, HT-5, TE-5/6/7/8, LR-8, KI-3/4/5/6, KI-10, GB-22/23, SI-4 and SI-18 will be presented as examples to demonstrate that JYJ contains extremely precise point location to stimulate the peripheral nervous system, whereas WHO/TCM standardized locations are often inaccurate. Video footages will be presented to demonstrate the expected motor response associated with precise electro-stimulation of these points. This webinar will help acupuncturists develop ways to verify the precision of their point location and needling technique in the future.
