Japanese Acupuncture for Severe Acute Lower Back Pain and Sciatica
By Alan | June 1, 2009
Using Japanese Acupuncture last night I had the privilege of treating my brand-new next-door neighbor for excruciating lower back pain and sciatica.
Although Keiron had only just moved in and would only be staying for a week his plight became known to me in general conversation.
He was already taking anti-inflammatory medication and had sought Traditional Chinese acupuncture treatment earlier in the day, all to little or no avail.
He had been suffering for almost 7 days and his condition was growing worse by the hour.
He was in excruciating pain and had extraordinary difficulty walking the few meters from his apartment to mine.
It took all of 10 minutes for him to get up on the treatment table.
Apart from the fact that within 15 minutes of the treatment finishing he was moving in a far less painful and inconvenient manner his comment that he could feel his entire being relax and unwind immediately I administered Liver Yin deficiency root treatment using the points LIv.8 – KI.10 stood out.
He continually remarked throughout the course of treatment that this was the most relaxed he had felt in days, once again confirming for me the validity and power of administering an appropriate treatment, especially in cases of acute lower back pain.
Below is a video of the Traditional Japanese Acupuncture treatment for lower back pain that was recorded last year.
Whilst each and every treatment is a highly individualized process this video will give you a good idea of my treatment for lower back pain.
I hope you enjoy and are able to pass on some of the benefits to your patients.
Kind regards,
Alan
