Electrical Stimulation of Needles in Cosmetic Acupuncture , Electrical needle stimulation is a newer addition to the established method from the 1960s. Its main use, in my opinion, is to reduce labour for the therapist. How so?
Cupping Therapy of Cosmetic Acupuncture , Cupping therapy is derived from an ancient therapy form using horns of animals. Later, bamboo cups were used and then very elegant glass cups of various sizes and shapes.
Plum-blossom Tapping Cosmetic Acupuncture , The plum-blossom hammer has seven short, sharp needles grouped together on a flat surface. It can be used with a light tapping method to cause redness of skin, or it can be tapped more heavily to cause bleeding.
Moxibustion of Cosmetic Acupuncture, The common moxa treatment for skin problems is ginger moxa. Moxa is a herb called mugwort, which is dried for 14 days in spring and then the leaves are crushed and burned like tobacco
Local Needling of Cosmetic Acupuncture , We have often seen that the skin becomes red around the needled area. This shows that Blood and energy arrives at this area after needling.
Bleeding techniques of Cosmetic Acupuncture , Bleeding is used for two purposes:
Descending technique of Cosmetic Acupuncture ,This is a needle technique that is performed on only one point – Sp 6. It is used to bring down or descend the ascending heat from any part of the body to the lower warmer.
Heat-introducing Technique of Cosmetic Acupuncture,This technique is the inverse of the dispersing heat technique. The yang is introduced from the exterior into the interior at three levels of depth. Again, this can be used on any point in the body, as the technique gives a clear message as to what should be achieved.
Dispersing Heat Technique of Cosmetic Acupuncture, This is a simple and effective needle technique. Most importantly, it can be performed on any point, anywhere on the body, and it will only disperse heat.
There are many sedation needle techniques that can be done. Sedation is performed to disperse energy away from the affected area, or from one meridian or organ. I mainly use two such techniques.
