  • moxibustion warming
  • acupressure press
  • Penzel acupuncture massage stroking and pressing
  • tuina rubbing and massaging
  • shiatsu massaging, stretching and squeezing
  • the stimulation of an entire area such as frequency modulation in the FF, light stimulation, stimulation with essential oils or application of anesthetics, such as procaine.
  • the stimulation by homeopathic or allopatic drugs is conceivable.
  • DE 3941872 C2 describes a method in which two electrodes of different polarity and the electric field lines generated therewith on the skin of a patient acupuncture points within the range of action of these electric fields are determined and determined.
  • DE 30 48 358 describes a device for finding acupuncture points in which is displayed with the skin resistance measurement directly that skin resistance area that is crucial for the use of gold or silver needles for acupuncture.
  • a point electrode is added to a ring electrode in the same stylus.
  • the circuit measures the skin resistance between the first electrode of the stylus and another hand electrode.
  • an audible indicator is activated when the voltage level across the resistor exceeds a value set by the setpoint potentiometer, leaving the reading from the measured pressure on the acupoint largely unaffected.
  • the problem here remains that the reproducibility of the measurement values is impaired by the use of an auxiliary current which adversely affects the physiology of the electroacupuncture point.
  • acupuncture meridians are regarded as channels through which electrical charges move from one area of the body to the other.
  • the DE 197 17 337 describes a method and a device for the determination and quantitative measurement of the energy of acupuncture points, in which the voltage potentials and / or current flows in the anatomical area of an acupuncture point are measured.
  • a plus electrode made of base metal such as brass is used as the measuring electrode.
  • the counterelectrode used is a negative electrode which is coated with a noble metal, for example gold or platinum.
  • the DE 197 17 766 describes a measuring device for measuring and evaluating electrical quantities of body surfaces and / or body points, which can indicate electrical quantities without external physical interference, such as extraneous currents.
  • the device can display several measured quantities such as voltage, current or power together.
  • the measurement is made by a measuring stylus whose tip is made of brass.
  • the counter electrode used for measurement is a foot or hand electrode made of gold-plated brass.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a method in which the stimulation area can be reliably determined by the person concerned.
  • the method steps carried out as described result in the person independently finding the stimulation area suitable for a particular indication with great reliability and reproducibility.
  • the "stimulation area" can be a certain area or else a single point on the person's head.
  • the found stimulation area is thus not necessarily limited to certain meridians on which, for example, the classic acupuncture points are located. Further knowledge about the meridian systems, on the basis of which acupuncture cards can be used to determine specific acupuncture points, is therefore unnecessary.
  • the distance between the hand and the temple or the person's head is between 20 cm and 40 cm inclusive, more preferably between 25 cm and 35 cm inclusive, and even more preferably between 27 cm and 33 cm inclusive cm is.
  • active lifting imply that the person carries out the respective method step automatically - if necessary under instruction and / or supervision by an auxiliary person.
  • module 2 The method described is also referred to by the inventors as “module 2" and is described in US Pat Fig. 2 shown. As a rule, this "module 2" is preceded by a “module 1”, which is described below.
  • module 1 defined here by the inventor of the present invention lead to a bilateral brain stimulation which sensitizes the person and enables him to find the said stimulation area independently with the aid of the steps of module 2.
  • the distance between the hand and the temple or the person's head is between 20 cm and 40 cm inclusive, more preferably between 25 cm and 35 cm inclusive, and even more preferably between 27 cm and 33 cm inclusive cm is.

  • the assistant perform her finger movements with the index finger of her right hand over a distance of between 30 cm and 70 cm inclusive, more preferably over a distance of between 35 cm and 65 cm inclusive, more preferably over a distance between 40 cm and including 60 cm, more preferably over a distance of between 45 cm and 55 cm inclusive.
  • the indication of the current level of complaints is based on a complaint level measurement system, in which the degree of complaints is preferably oral or by showing on a visual analogue scale (VAS).
  • VAS visual analogue scale
  • the decisive factor here is that the person is made aware of this form of complaint by specifying the level of the complaint in relation to a particular type of complaint, which makes it possible to find a suitable area of stimulation for this type of complaint.
  • VAS visual analogue scales
  • step e it is crucial that the person is sensitized with respect to the deviating scalp and / or bone condition, so as to be able to automatically localize the deviation (step e)) by active scanning in step d).
  • Active insertion of the thumb, index and middle fingers of the left hand to the scalp in step c) is further characterized in that it is a hyperbolic movement. This movement is clearly indicated by the reference numeral 2.4 in Fig. 2 shown.
  • the placement of the stimulation area can be objectively verified by a kinesiological muscle test in which the person forms his thumb and forefinger into a circle (letter "O") on which the muscular force is tested by pulling.
  • test person can not hold the fingertips together reproducibly with the same load, there is probably an impairment.
  • the ability of the subject to stabilize his muscle tension against a fast external pull pulse depends crucially on the quality of the internal information transfer of his reaction speed. This is essentially subject to the influence of bioenergetic conditions: for example, illnesses, fatigue, tiredness, nutritional delay, Dehydration, alcohol or tranquilizers cause a deterioration of the reaction qualities.
  • kinesiological factors such as jewelry / metal, glasses, sound waves, magnetic fields, lighting / neon light, thirst, temperature of drinks, ventilation of the experimental room, plastic chairs, metal chairs, chairs, line of sight, hand posture, scars of operations, implants, seals Type / material, textiles, shoes, metal buckles and buttons ( Heyartz, Susanne: Kinesiology - Review of basic kinesiological aspects; Dipl.-Work Faculty of Psychology, 1996, Ludwig-Maximilians-University Münch s).
  • An essential advantage of the myostasis test is e.g. the fact that it is possible to dispense with measuring currents and equipment expenditure.
  • the skin moisture also plays no role and the reproducibility reduces the error rate and allows a rapid evaluation.
  • it is easily applicable in practice both for diagnosis and therapy.
  • Acupuncture is a treatment concept of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It is essentially based on the piercing of a needle at a specific acupuncture point. Acupuncture assumes the existence of 361 acupuncture points located on the meridians. Accordingly, there are twelve major meridians, each of which is a mirror image on both sides of the body paired, eight extraneridians and a number of so-called extra points. In the opinion of Traditional Chinese Medicine, piercing the needles affects the flow of qi (life energy).
  • a special form of acupuncture is the electroacupuncture, in which the electrical skin resistance is measured against a reference point via a stimulation current at various acupuncture points. In the case of laser acupuncture, in turn, the body parts are irradiated either flat, or the individual acupuncture points targeted, whereas in magnetic acupuncture certain five-element magnets are set.
  • Moxibustion is also a traditional Chinese medicine treatment and is considered as one of the acupuncture equivalent treatment.
  • moxa therapy small amounts of dried, fine mugwort fibers are burned on or over acupuncture points.
  • Mugwort Artemnisia vulgaris
  • the heat that acts on the meridian system via the therapy points depends greatly on the type of application, such as moxibustion with sage cones, moxa cigar, needle moxa or moxa plaster.
  • Acupressure is a healing method that is particularly used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Japanese medicine.
  • TCM Chinese medicine
  • acupuncture meridians and their tsubo, ie certain pressure points, are used.
  • the shiatsu uses the whole body.
  • Shiatsu is a form of body therapy developed in Japan, which originated from traditional Chinese massage (Tuina). At the beginning of the 20th century were combined various forms of energetic bodywork and manual treatments in Japan and united under the name of Shiatsu to distinguish themselves from pure relaxation massages. Translated literally Shiatsu means "finger pressure", but the treatment includes much more: the whole body is used to touch. Unlike acupuncture and acupressure, shiatsu not only stimulates individual points on the body.
  • APM Penzel
  • the Knockakupressurtechniken in which the patient is treated by knocking or throbbing are used in particular in the so-called “energetic psychology”. These include Thought Field Therapy (TFT), Mental Field Therapy (MFT) or Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).
  • TFT Thought Field Therapy
  • MFT Mental Field Therapy
  • EFT Emotional Freedom Techniques
  • Magnetic field therapy utilizes large-area pulsed magnetic fields of extremely low frequency for therapeutic purposes. This is the direct action of such fields with specific intensity and frequency modulation. Both factors depend on the clinical picture and are fundamentally different depending on the indication. Among other things, the body's defenses are strengthened and blood circulation in the vessels is significantly improved. Furthermore, the oxygen supply of the cell is raised, thereby increasing the energy metabolism. It is known that in various diseases, the interface potentials of the cell in the organism appear to be changed in relation to the normal value and thereby the cell function is impaired. At this point, the magnetic field intervenes and normalizes with the above-mentioned physical effects. It completely permeates the body, and therefore also every cell, with which its fields of application are almost all-embracing.
  • Light stimulation is a method of psychosomatic treatment using light pulses.
  • RLS rhythmic light stimulation
  • RLS uses colored pulsating light that shines in the eyes.
  • the evaluations of Clients during RLS sessions have found that certain topics are associated with each hue. For certain reactions, specific shades are used.
  • the pulse rhythm generally causes the brain to become alert and generate specific brain current patterns. Additional eye movements, breathing work and sounds can change the mental and physical processes even more deeply.
  • the technique was developed by the American psychologist dr. Steven Vasquez develops.
  • the stimulation with essential oils comes predominantly from the Indian Ayurveda [that is true] and can calming, relaxing, stimulating, balancing, antispasmodic and also germicidal effect.
  • the oils are absorbed through the skin, mucous membranes and nose.
  • the oils activate self-healing powers of the body and can thus restore and enhance well-being.
  • Allopathic medicines are medicines that are administered as part of conventional medical treatment. These may be both natural and synthetic.
  • said allopathic medicaments may preferably be anesthetics such as e.g. Procaine, novocaine, neocaine, procaine, scandicain, benzocaine or apothesin.
  • Homeopathic medicines are medicines that are administered as part of a homeopathic therapy, the principle of which is the principle of similarity.
  • the decisive selection criterion for a homeopathic medicine is therefore that it can produce symptoms similar to those in which the patient suffers.
  • the patient receives the selected agent in the lowest possible dose and in a specially prepared, "potentiated" form.
  • the drug substance is gradually shaken with water or alcohol or triturated with lactose and thereby often so extremely diluted that the starting material is no longer detectable. In this way, unwanted effects of the substance should be minimized.
  • Many homeopaths believe that the preparation process increases the desired effect at the same time.
  • the method according to the invention can be used inter alia in the following clinical pictures: migraine, headache, pain, back pain, intervertebral disc disease; Burn out syndrome, allergies, skin diseases, asthma, rheumatism, muscular diseases, stomach and intestinal diseases, neurological disorders, mental and emotional blockages such as anxiety, stress, despair, anger, envy, frustration, worry, fatigue or resignation.
  • Lactose intolerance also referred to as lactose intolerance, lactose malabsorption, lactase deficiency syndrome or alactasia, does not digest the lactose ingested as a result of the lack or decrease in the production of the digestive enzyme lactase. Lactase is produced by all mammals during lactation, it splits the milk sugar into the usable sugars galactose and glucose. If unripened lactose reaches humans in the colon, it is released by Intestinal bacteria ingested and fermented. The fermentation products lead among other things to flatulence and osmotic diarrhea (diarrhea).
  • lactose intolerance was treated with the described method (5 times) over a period of 1 month.
  • lactose intolerance was assessed by means of a blood sugar test, which detects the blood glucose level.
  • the activity of the lactase in a defined administration of lactose is determined by an increase in the concentration of glucose in the blood. Since glucose and galactose are fission products of lactose, the glucose value (blood sugar value) would have to increase with the administration of lactose. If this is not the case, the suspicion of lactose intolerance is close.
  • the leuko-granulo- and lymphocytes initially increase rapidly. In the example, before and after the stimulation of the discovered area, a blood picture was taken every 10 days ( Fig. 5 ). Both the leukocytes and segmented granulocytes, which are important for the immune system, and the lymphocytes responsible for the specific defense, have dropped significantly after treatment.
  • Another example of the successful stimulation of the discovered area is the improvement of the immune system represented by the leukocytes ( Fig. 6 ) in cold sores and simultaneous detection of mercury in the granulation tissue.
  • the leukocyte counts have decreased significantly after stimulation.
  • a normalization of pancreatic amylase and the discharge of 5 metals in the urine were found.
  • triglycerides in humans is below 180 mg / dl or below 2 mmol / l.
  • An elevated level is found in various diseases and is described as hypertriglyceridemia.
  • a significant drop in neutral fats, measured here as triglycerides from about 220 mg / dl to 140 mg / dl within two and a half Months ( Fig. 7 ).
  • L-homocysteine is a naturally occurring (non-proteinogenic) amino acid. Increased blood levels for homocysteine may result in damage to the blood vessels such as arteriosclerosis. It is also closely related to dementia in old age. Normal laboratory values during the blood test are between 5 and 10 ⁇ mol / l. In the present example, two different stimulation areas were stimulated 10 times each over a period of two and a half months. The homocysteine level could be lowered from approx. 18.5 ⁇ mol / l to 10 ⁇ mol / l ( Fig. 8 ). A herpes zoster as concomitant disease was also declining.
  • CRP or capsule-reactive protein is a pentagonal carbohydrate protein that is formed in the liver. It is part of the acute phase proteins, i. Proteins in the blood, which increase in inflammatory diseases (infectious or non-infectious). Therefore, CRP is used as a nonspecific inflammatory parameter among others for evaluating the severity of inflammatory diseases. Even without clinical symptoms, increased CRP concentrations must always be clarified. CRP is also present in healthy people in the blood. Normal values for adults are up to 10 mg / l or 1 mg / dl.
  • the CRP value could be reduced to below 1 ⁇ mol over a period of 6 weeks ( Fig. 9 ).
  • the clinical findings namely the restoration of the mobility of all wrist and finger joints as well as both hocks in rheumatoid arthritis improved.
  • chronic generalized dermatosis could be eliminated by stimulating the patient with the increased release of mercury ( Fig. 11 ).
  • the analysis of mercury in urine selectively detects the exposure to inorganic mercury, as organic mercury compounds are excreted through the stool.
  • the stimulation achieved a stabilization of the general condition and resilience.
