Using Hand Acupoints
for Diagnosis of Medical
Problems |
On 10.21.09, In Aculife

.
Could it truly be possible
to detect and detect medical
problems via a scan of hand
acupoints? If you think this
sounds like science fiction,
think again. Ear and hand
acupoints correspond to the
six of 12 meridians
identified by ancient
Chinese medical
practitioners. These
meridians are actual
pathways to various organs
and systems of the body. The
body’s energy, or chi, flows
along these meridians. An
imbalance of energy is the
cause of illness.
Hand Acupoints: Old Medicine
Becomes New
For thousands of years, the
Chinese have been using
stimulation of the palm and
ear to diagnose illness. It
is not a new concept;
rather, it is based on
traditional Oriental
theories of health,
wellness, anatomy, and
physiology. What is new is
the modern technology used
to create a device that
relies on scientific
methodology to detect,
diagnose, and treat medical
problems.
The concept is that
electro-magnetic signatures
correspond to various organs
and parts of the body. When
there is a problem, the
electro-magnetic signature
is lower than normal,
indicating an imbalance of
positive and negative energy
(yin and yang), or illness.
This produces a tingling
sensation in the hand.
The ancient Chinese medical
practitioner used
acupuncture needles or
massage on the hand
acupoints to do the same
thing that today can be
accomplished with a small,
convenient device. |

Identifying the Hand’s
Pain Relief Acupoints |
On 10.25.09, In Pain
Relief, By admin
.
There are many pain relief
acupoints, or meridian
points, located on the
wrist, palm and fingers of
the hand. Stimulating these
acupoints is not the only
way to diagnose and treat
pain, but it is one of the
easiest and most accessible.
Traditional Chinese
acupuncture is performed
anywhere on the body while
reflexology concentrates on
the meridian points found on
the soles of the feet. For
the home user, the hands are
preferred and make
identification of key
acupoints much simpler.
About Pain Relief Acupoints
Acupuncture and acupressure
rely on accessing the body’s
meridian points. This refers
to the flow of energy
throughout the body. Each
meridian ends at twelve
spots; there are three on
each hand and three on each
foot. The balance of energy,
or the yin and yang, is what
determines health and
wellbeing. An imbalance of
energy along any of the
meridian paths results in
illness or ailments.
Locating Pain Relief
Acupoints
When using the acupoint
detection device, the user
will experience a tingling
sensation in response to an
imbalance. A strong,
vibrating sensation on the
Shao Shang, located near the
cuticle on the thumb, is an
indication that a problem
exists in the corresponding
body part or system.
This is one way to approach
pain relief through
acupoints. If you already
know the root cause of your
pain, you can work at it in
the reverse manner by
finding the acupoint on your
hand that is connected to
that body part. For
instance, if you have tennis
elbow, you will concentrate
on stimulating the backs of
each finger and the front of
the first finger as each of
these acupoints is connected
to the arm and shoulder.
The key is to use the
electromagnetic wave
radiation from the device to
correctly identify the
acupoints that require
stimulation. Each acupoint
generally corresponds to
more than one organ or limb;
it is the correct
combination of meridian
points that will achieve the
greatest, most comprehensive
relief from pain.
Pain relief acupoints
located on the hands,
fingers, and wrists are an
excellent way to achieve
reprieve from any number of
painful conditions. The
strength of the response to
electric signals is an
excellent form of diagnosis
while long electromagnetic
pulses provide a very
effective form of therapy.
Identifying the affected
acupoints is just the first
part of a comprehensive
treatment that can be easily
performed at home. |

The Aculife Palm Chart
and Its Relationship to
Acupuncture |
On 10.29.09, In Aculife
Info, Medical Diagnosis,
Pain Relief, By admin
.
The Aculife palm chart is a
very accurate representation
of all systems, tissues, and
organs of the human body.
There are six main
acupressure meridians that
can be found on the hands
and stimulation to various
combinations of these points
can affect a very positive
result for any number of
illnesses and ailments.
Yin and Yang and the Aculife
Palm Chart
In ancient Chinese medical
philosophy, energy, or chi,
flows through the body along
selected pathways. These
pathways are referred to as
meridians. The meridians
connect various systems of
the body which can be
accessed via acupoints. This
interconnectivity creates a
balance between organs,
represented as yin and yang.
The following is a simple
overview of relations
between an internal organ,
its balancing element, and
the external organ:
Spleen – Stomach – Muscle
Lung – Large Intestine –
Skin
Kidney – Bladder – Hair
Liver – Gallbladder – Eyes
Heart – Small Intestine –
Tongue
Any imbalance results in a
problem that manifests
itself as pain or
discomfort. In addition,
each organ is responsible
for various bodily functions
and directly impacts others.
These are as follows:
Spleen – Appetite; stomach;
immune system
Lung – Respiratory system;
immune system; allergies,
energy
Kidney – Water removal;
bones and calcium; sexual
organs; ears; endocrine
system
Liver – Eyes; tendons,
muscles and veins; stroke;
heart nutrition
Heart – blood circulation;
metabolism; arteries; blood
pressure; stress; mental
illness; brain
The Aculife Palm Charts
Identifies Acupoints That
Offer Relief
Those of us who have been
trained to look to the
direct source for a medical
problem, e.g. depression
occurs in the brain, may
find such associations odd.
The truth is that the
methodology behind Chinese
acupuncture and medicine
takes a holistic approach to
healthcare that has been
proven accurate and
effective through the ages.
For instance, few of us
would consider stimulation
of the back of the ring
finger, inside of the pinky,
and at points along the palm
to get rid of dark circles
under the eyes. Yet, this is
exactly where the Aculife
palm chart shows acupoints
to relieve this symptom.
Modern medical doctors often
attribute dark under eye
circles to an allergy, which
perfectly corresponds with
the relationship shown
above.
The full Aculife palm chart
is part of the instruction
booklet that comes with each
Aculife Electromagnetic Wave
Therapist device. It gives
detailed illustrations with
clear directions as to what
acupoints should be
stimulated to relieve pain
and alleviate common
problems. Although there are
only six meridian points in
the hands, the complex
network of connections
requires that various
acupoints receive treatment.
It may take some time to
completely overview the
device and its instructions,
but it is worth it. The
Aculife Therapist is
beneficial for almost
anyone. |

Sleep Problems Can Be
Helped with Electromagnetic
Acupuncture Therapy |
On 12.31.09, In
Uncategorized, By admin
.
Everyone has suffered from
insomnia at some point in
their life. If you are
plagued by sleep problems
that are not necessarily
associated with another
health condition, but you do
not want to resort to
sleeping pills, an
electromagnetic wave therapy
device like the Aculife can
help. This electronic
acupuncture device can
stimulate the energy
pathways within the body to
induce sleep.
Acupuncture Basics
All along the body you have
acupuncture points which are
assumed to stimulate your
central nervous system. In
turn, neurotransmitters
release chemicals in the
body which saturate the
brain, spinal cord and
muscles. These chemicals can
influence how your body’s
involuntary,
self-controlling systems
operate. The sleep center of
the brain can easily be
influenced by acupuncture.
In addition, this ancient
Chinese practice promotes
emotional well-being which
can also play a part in
solving sleep problems.
The Electronic Version of
Acupuncture
Electronic acupuncture uses
a device with a wand which
transmits electromagnetic
impulses. Instead of trying
to follow a map of your
whole body, most body
functions can be found on
acupuncture maps of the palm
and hand. You would find the
specific acupoints on your
hand which correspond to the
particular areas of your
brain and even the rest of
your body that deal with
insomnia and other sleep
problems.
Overcome Sleep Problems with
Electronic Acupuncture
The acupoints for the
arteries within the left and
right brain are located on
both sides of the middle
finger near the base. By
stimulating this area, you
could activate the brain
area which produces natural
opiods which are chemicals
that can help you sleep as
well as alleviate pain and
stress, two factors that
could contribute to sleep
problems.
Stimulating the acupoints
for these brain arteries
could also manipulate the
pituitary gland and
hypothalamus, two body parts
responsible for a number of
functions from body
temperature control,
appetite and hormones.
Again, these things often
contribute to insomnia and
sleep problems. By just
balancing the energy in your
brain, you could solve a
number of issues which
prevent you from getting
enough sleep and rest.
Another Way to Solve your
Sleep Problems
The good news about
electromagnetic wave therapy
devices is that they also
have a detection mode. If
you cannot find the right
acupoints on your hand and
palm to treat your insomnia,
it could be that you have a
health problem you do not
know about. With the
detection mode, the
electronic acupuncture
device can find the
underlying condition so you
can treat it and eventually
resolve your sleep problems.
Once you have identified the
problem, it is much easier
to interpret the hand and
palm map and make your
choices as to which
acupoints to stimulate with
the electromagnetic
impulses. |

Allergy Relief Can Be
Realised with
Electromagnetic Wave Therapy
On 05.28.10, In Aculife
Benefits, Allergies, By
admin
.
Millions of people seek
allergy relief each year,
especially in the spring
when flowers bloom and grass
and tree pollen are at an
all time high. In fact, the
pharmaceutical industry is
booming during these times.
If you are tired of taking
medications that may or may
not work to stifle your
allergic reactions to pollen
or even other allergens like
pet dander, mould and dust,
electromagnetic wave therapy
is a great alternative. It’s
acupuncture but without
needles.
Science behind Allergic
Reactions
Microscopic particles of
pollen, mood, dust and even
environmental pollutants are
viewed as invaders of the
body when inhaled. These
irritants trigger an
immunological response,
causing the white blood
cells to attack. The result
is a release of histamines
which kick off allergy
symptoms such as itchy eyes
as well as nasal congestion,
sneezing and runny nose. The
typical over the counter or
prescription allergy relief
remedy is antihistamines in
the form of pills or nasal
sprays.
How Acupuncture Can Work
Based on the principles of
acupuncture, there are
acupoints along the body
which correspond to various
body functions. When you
employ electromagnetic wave
therapy such as the Aculife
Magnetic Wave Therapist
device, you use the
principles of acupuncture,
only without the needles.
The ancient Chinese believed
that the lungs are tied to
your immunological function
as well as sinus and
respiratory functions. By
stimulating the
corresponding acupoint
areas, you can treat the
problem and realise allergy
relief.
Using a wand to deliver the
electromagnetic wave
impulses, you must touch
specific areas on your left
hand which correspond with
respiratory function as well
as eyes and nose functions,
depending on your specific
allergy relief needs. You
can adjust the wave lengths
based on the depth of nasal
inflammation and other
allergic reactions as well
as your own comfort level.
If you are pregnant,
electromagnetic wave therapy
is not recommended. And,
eEven though electromagnetic
wave therapy is typically
safe, it is important to
investigate potential
underlying conditions with a
doctor before
self-diagnosing. However, if
you are beleaguered by
normal seasonal allergies,
electronic acupuncture is a
good alternative therapy for
basic allergy relief as well
as help with other health
and wellness areas as well. |

Medical Problem
Detection and Pain Relief
With Acupoint Therapy |
By stimulating acupoints
a person can alleviate pain
and treat any number of
ailments. Most consumers
have heard of acupuncture,
but few realize that it can
be done without needles.
Heat, pressure, magnetic
fields, and electrical
currents are all alternative
methods of stimulating
acupoints on the body.
Accessing Qi
According to ancient Chinese
medical practitioners, qi
(Chi) is the vital energy
that flows through each
person’s body. Qi follows
certain pathways in a
network referred to as
meridians. It incorporates
both yin and yang, the two,
opposite forces that
together make up a complete
whole. When an imbalance
occurs in either yin or
yang, it causes qi to become
blocked and results in an
imbalance. This is the root
of problems with a person’s
health resulting in pain,
illness, or infection.
Acupuncture is a way of
unblocking qi and putting
yin and yang back into their
proper balance. Qi is
accessed through the skin at
various pressure points, or
acupoints.
Each acupoint represents a
place where a meridian
surfaces. There are some
2,000 acupoints on the body
with more than 100 of them
located on the hands and
fingers representing 12 or
14 meridians (depending on
which Eastern philosophy
defines the meridians). The
hand and fingers correspond
to numerous places on the
body, such as the chest,
heart, stomach, abdomen,
bladder, sexual organs, the
extremities, shoulders,
hips, head, neck, face,
internal organs, and back.
The middle finger
corresponds to the trunk,
for one instance. During
acupoint stimulation, the
acupoints on the dominant
hand are often stimulated.
If someone is right-handed,
their right hand will
receive the treatment.
Bilateral treatments are
accomplished by applying
pressure to both the inner
and outer sides; for
instance if the ailment is
in the trunk, the middle
finger acupoints on both
sides of it will be
stimulated.
Using Acupoints to Treat
Illness
It is thought that
acupuncture works to treat
illness by causing a
physical response in nerve
cells, the brain, and the
pituitary gland. These
responses trigger the
release of various hormones,
proteins and chemicals in
the brain, all of which
control various body
functions. Acupuncture can
boost the immune system,
alleviate pain, control body
temperature, and affect
blood pressure. Because
every system in the body is
connected to acupoints,
accessing the problem area
is both easy and
non-invasive. The
application of acupuncture
in treating a wide variety
of illnesses is nearly
limitless. Even consumers
can realize the benefits of
stimulating acupoints by
using a home device that is
non invasive. Since so many
of the meridians are
accessed through the hands,
it is simple to perform a
treatment on oneself and
this can present a great
opportunity for anyone to
detect medical issues as
well as relieve their own
pain and discomfort. |

Acupoint Therapy
Benefits For Helping
Recovering Stroke Patients |
There have been a number
of studies conducted in
China and Japan which showed
that stroke patients who
undergo acupuncture
treatments not long after
having a stroke are more
likely to recover more of
their affected faculties
than others without the
treatment. While acupuncture
is not as mainstream in some
parts of the world like the
U.S., it is slowly becoming
an accepted form of
treatment. After all, the
Chinese have followed the
practice for thousands of
years with success.
There are even personal
portable devices that
deliver acupoint therapy,
emitting electromagnetic
impulses to acupuncture
points in your hands,
thereby bypassing the thin,
fine needles of traditional
acupuncture. Stroke patients
can benefit from this type
of therapy.
Problems with Stroke
Patients
A stroke is sometimes
referred to as an attack on
the brain. A blood clot
basically blocks an artery,
interrupting blood flow to
portions of the brain. A
blood vessel could also
break, causing the same
problem. When a stroke
occurs, brain cells can die,
creating brain damage.
Unfortunately, the body
functions that lie in those
dying area are also affected
and may become lost
permanently. Memory, speech
and movement are most often
affected.
Some people do recover fully
in time after a stroke while
others may experience muscle
weakness or minor speech or
memory problems. Larger
strokes may cause more
profound damage such as
losing the ability to speak
or paralysis on one side of
the body. In time, physical
therapy and medications can
help recover some physical
ability. However, by
introducing Chinese medicine
like acupuncture soon after
the stroke, patients may be
able to greatly improve
their chances of recovery.
If patients are sensitive or
squeamish about needles,
acupoint therapy using
electromagnetic wave
impulses can be equally
effective.
How Acupoint Therapy Works
on Stroke Patients
The hand has six meridian
points or pathways in which
the body's life energy
flows. Within these
meridians, there is an
intricate system of
connections called acupoints
(acupuncture points) which
tie into various body
functions and organs. With
stroke patients, it is hard
to keep circulation open,
especially when some nerve
pathways have closed down.
By stimulating certain
acupoints using
electromagnetic wave
impulses, stroke patients
can increase circulation to
the extremities, boosting
mobility and easing pain and
numbness.
Basically, this electronic
form of acupuncture can ramp
up endorphins in the body
responsible for easing pain
and helping the body relax.
The nervous system can be
specifically targeted with
acupoint therapy, keeping
pathways of the nerves open
and the nerves firing. The
electromagnetic wave
impulses released through
electronic acupuncture
devices can also open blood
vessels, providing better
blood flow which in turn
decreases the chances of
blood clots and a repeat
stroke performance.
Acupoint therapy is an
excellent way to improve the
quality life in stroke
patients. While not a cure
all, it is definitely one of
the best ways to augment any
treatment protocols the
doctor prescribes.

cancer patient who is
thankfully now in remission.

Hand Acupoints and
Your Immune System |
Acupuncture is no longer
just an alternative medical
procedure reserved for
patients being treated by
practitioners of ancient
Chinese techniques. The
modern medical world is now
embracing the benefits of
various types of acupuncture
to treat a wide variety of
ailments. In fact, it’s
effective even for such
diverse conditions as yeast
infections, cancer, and
immune system disorders.
How Does Acupuncture Work?
Many people hear the word
acupuncture and immediately
visualise someone lying
prone on a table with a
large number of long needles
sticking out of their body.
Whilst this may be the
traditional form of
pinpointing acupressure
points, or acupoints, modern
medical practitioners also
use such methods as heat,
pressure, electrical
currents, lasers, and micro-
or magnetic waves, or a
combination of these. The
concept behind this is to
stimulate various parts of
the body which are connected
to the body’s internal
organs and systems. It is
thought that this
stimulation produces an
actual physical change in
nerve cells and causes them
to release hormones,
proteins, and chemicals in
the brain. In this way,
acupoints help control blood
pressure and body
temperature and boost the
immune system while
releasing endorphins, the
body’s natural painkiller.
Acupuncture is now an
approved medical treatment
in several countries,
including the United States,
throughout Europe, and in
China and Japan.
Your Immune System
The body’s immune system
responds to diseases,
bacteria, and viruses. It
contains both endorphin and
neuropeptide receptors in
its lymphoid organs, which
produce white blood cells,
or lymphocytes.
Communication
occurs between the central
nervous and immune systems
via chemical messages which
influence the body’s
immunity, and the creation
of lymphocytes. It is the
job of the immune system to
scan every cell in the human
body, then classify each as
normal or abnormal. Those
cells that indicate signs of
infection or irregularity
are attacked by
T-lymphocytes created in the
thymus gland. There are
other types of cells in the
lymphoid organs, all of
which have a particular
function in identifying,
inactivating, destroying,
defending, or eliminating
abnormalities.
Acupoint Therapy Can Help
the Immune System
Acupuncture is thought to
retrain the immune and
central nervous systems to
more accurately detect
dangerous cell growth and
boost its ability to seek
and destroy abnormal cells
such as cancer. No matter
the type of acupuncture
used, the body perceives
stimulation to acupoints as
a threat. The immune system
will be called to action to
resist and defend against
this invasion. Properly
instituted, acupuncture can
actually channel the body’s
natural defences to
concentrate on particular
abnormal cells and provide
new instruction, or even
reactivate the previously
ineffectual immune system.
The benefits of acupoint
therapy over modern medical
procedures are many and
Acupuncture is quickly
becoming the favoured
alternative to other forms
of treatment for a variety
of ailments. The amazing and
verifiable link between
pressure points and the
body’s immune system means
that acupuncture can perform
near miracles, without the
side effects of prescription
drugs or invasive medical
procedures. This ancient
form of therapy might well
become the latest, greatest
“innovation” in the world of
health and medicine. |
