I tried blood stasis protocol.
The acupuncture points are +(SP3 태백, LU9 태연), – LI11 곡지. As for acute low back pain, I added SI3 후계. Two consecutive sessions everyday relieved pain completely, in addition to normal range of motion. The protocol seems to move blood and qi, thereby stopping pain.
Dr Huh Im’s protocol for Night blindness was posted already. The protocol for night blindness from Sah Ahm acupuncture is as follows:
+ (KI10 음곡, LV8 곡천)
– (KI2 연곡, HT8 소부)
It is hard to keep our emotion in balance in this busy life. We get stressed out and burned out easily. Here are the protocols from Sah-Ahm Acupuncture for mental emotional disorders.
A) Heart fire: + (KI10 음곡, HT3 소해) – (LV1 대돈, HT9 소충), Dantian 단전
B) Liver fire: + (KI10 음곡, SP2 대도) – ( SJ6 지구, BL60 곤륜), RN12 중완
C) Small intestine fire: + (GB41 족임읍, SI3 후계) – (ST36 삼리, ST41 충양), RN12 중완
+ : tonify
– : reduce
Sah-Ahm acupuncture is known as Korea Four Needle in the United States. The technique is one of the traditional acupuncture techniques in Korea. Most practitioners in Korea use the technique. Sah-Ahm is presumed to be the alternate name of the practitioner who might have lived in the 1600s.
I am planning to post many protocols of Sah-Ahm acupuncture, which can be useful in clinic settings. The protocols are variations of the regular protocols. I refer to the book written and edited by Dr Dalho Kim.
