Putting the positive pole on the skin will have the same problems but can possibly attract electrons from inflammation nearby. Thus it could possibly have a slight anti-inflammation effect. But here the effect depends on the amount of electrons moved and since the current is so small, it shouldn’t have much of an effect.

The main problem with this method is the lack of a closed circuit. In both cases (inflammation and degeneration) this is why it will have a bridgeable effect. But if you could complete the circuit it would be much more effective. Possibly, if worn for a long time, the basic treatment could see some effect. Closing the circuit could be accomplished using a button electrode held in place with some sticky electrode gel connected to another sticky electrode. Just not very practical.

Now I have found a ay to get the microcurrent effect with frequencies instead of current. And it does work.Just not as strong as in-person treatments for technical reasons.This technique has shown that it can make remote treatments that didn’t work before work with the appropriate changes.Same with the stickers.

Well, my bone-on-bone knee joint patient is still doing well. No pain at all unless she stands a long time or rides her exercise bike. Even then she recovers fast. It looks like we are re-growing the meniscus and providing cushion to the joint. She tried it on her other knee (replaced) and did not get any relief, so it is not causing a release of endorphins or it would have helped the other knee. And we grew enough cushion in 90 minutes (the first treatment) to get significant pain relief. Now it is the knee she had replaced that causes her the most pain. It appears there is inflammation around the kneecap. So I am starting to treat that too. It is very rewarding to see another of my treatments work even better than expected. I am just applying my engineering training to induce a phenomena that occurs naturally in the body under the right circumstances. And coming up with a better solution to an expensive problem. And do it at 40 times less money. And doctors think this is impossible, hogwash! They would rather have you undergo a $20,000 surgery! I can regrow the cushion in weeks! And you can do it at home while watching TV! Isn’t that a better solution? And it took an acupuncturist/engineer to figure it out.

She is still improving. I’ve had to make some adjustments to the treatment but they are helping. She is able to do more that she couldn’t do before. I anticipated I would have to make adjustments to the treatment and I was right. Just fine tuning the technique. After all, I am doing the impossible according to doctors. But they don’t know what I know. They are not as smart as they think they are.

And if you are already addicted on opiates, acupuncture is one of the best treatments. That is because acupuncture and electro-acupuncture can stimulate the natural production of esndorphins and help with the emotional problems tthat come with all addictions.

Sciatica is a fairly common diagnosis for Low Back Pain. It should describe low back pain due to irritation to low back nerve roots (usually those between L3and L4 and between L4 and L5. Unfortunately doctors usually don’t take the time to palpate the low back to confirm their diagnosis. Why do I say that? Because I have seen many patients with that diagnosis that had no low back pain! Their pain was in their butt. Too treat someone I need to know exactly what the problem is or at least exactly where it is. With a sciatica diagnosis, I often don’t get the information I need just by the diagnosis. I have to figure it out on my own by palpating to find where the pain is. When the pain is in the back, it usually is coming from L4 and L5 nerve roots (although it sometimes also can involve nerve roots farther up the back) and usually also from the SI (Sacroiliac Joint, where the weight from the trunk transfers to the hips). At these points there is inflammation. This is best treated by a method I invented that works like a cortisone shot but uses electricity instead of chemistry and doesn’t have the limitations of cortisone – I can do it as much as needed. Usually there will be initial pain relief and then 2-3 hours later, as the inflammation goes down, more pain relief. And it usually only takes 1-3 treatments to get rid of the inflammation. And getting rid of the inflammation is important because if it is not adequately treated, over time it can cause a degenerative process in the adjacent disk. Doctors won’t tell you that because they don’t know the cause. It is a basic electrical phenomena. Basically inflammation is negatively charged. Like charges repel each other so the negative charge at the inflamed nerve root causes the electrons at the nearby disk to be pushed away causing the part of the disk nearest the nerve root to become positively charged. The electrons are what holds the molecules together so the lack of electrons causes that side of the disk to begin to fall apart or degenerate. A sign that that process has begun is tenderness at the disk. I always palpate for this because it is easily treated and stopped. I’m not sure if I can repair the damage that has already been done but I do have techniques I can try that might help. At the very least it would help treat any chronic pain that might persist.

Now if the pain is in the butt, there are several location that it usually shows up at. The butt pain usually appears later and is a result of the low back pain causing the upper band of the Gluteus Maximus muscle to get tight. This then pulls on the attachments at the sacrum and the great trochanter which then get inflamed and tender. My anti-inflammation treatment works great here too.

Another place you can get butt pain is at the piriformis muscle. Since it lies directly above your hip joint. So it can be confused with hip pain. You can tell the difference by palpation. If it is the piriformis muscle, the attachments will be tender also. The treatment here is to treat the inflammation at the attachments and to needle the belly of the muscle to relax it. I also use a frequency for the inflammation treatment that also helps relax the muscle and stimulate the release of endorphins which helps with the pain as well.

Occasionally true sciatica will cause the low back muscles to get tight as well. This will cause pain and inflammation at the attachments. Again I treat the attachments and relax the muscle. Here though the upper attachment is at the floating (12th) rib. So we also have to look at the attachment of the rib to the vertebrae and at the end of the rib to see if those areas are also irritated and may need treatment also.

After watching Mrs. Ford’s testimony today, and seeing how much her experience had affected her, I have decided to treat the PTSD that people suffer from that have similar experiences. I have chosen to do this for two reasons. first, I really do care, especially when it’s so easy for me to help. Second is that it is easy for me to treat PTSD with the tools available to me. It really only costs me time (the treatments take about 3 hours). I have treated two patients with PTSD successfully, and am currently treating another. The treatments may take a long time but they are very relaxing (the patient usually falls asleep). the main treatment utilizes a form of needleless electroacupuncture called Frequency Specific Microcurrent(FSM). Sometimes it helps to add some acupuncture points to help treat specific emotional disturbances. They work well together. I also find Bach Remedies useful sometimes. So the treatments are easy to perform with the main cost is time. I’m already offering free treatments to soldiers suffering from PTSD, and Phantom Limb Pain, and anyone with depression (to keep them from committing suicide). Again, I’m offering to treat them for free because I care especially since those treatments are so easy for me. That’s why I became an acupuncturist: it feels good to help people. And when it’s so easy and inexpensive for me to ease their suffering my choice is simple. I care more about the person suffering than the money. My reward is the feeling I get when I get the thanks for helping them. And I’ll admit I do have an ulterior motive. I’m just starting my practice again after suffering from a stroke. I’m hoping offering free treatments will help me build up my practice again. It also feels good to be able to help people again. In a world where expressions of love are so rare, this is my way to show unconditional love is not dead. I can and do care about you even though I don’t know you. It’s the God in me (my capacity to feel and share love and my desire to be loved and appreciated for who I am) recognizing that is in you too (the meaning of the Sanskrit word “Namaste“). It’s merely my attempt to live that truth. Why should you suffer when you don’t have to? I’m happy to help, especially when it’s so easy to do so. I really have no choice. It’s just the right thing to do.

To Mrs. Ford: I’d  be privileged to help you. I’m sure I can help you get over your traumas, put it behind you and help you find some peace and happiness for the rest of your life. It will only take 4 treatments over two weeks. that’s all it takes to get rid of your nightmares and flashbacks. and you’ll feel much more relaxed after the first visit. I  don’t even have to know the details of your trauma. I just have to know what emotions you are feeling, not the details. And if you are suffering from menopausal symptoms, that’s also something that easy for  me to treat with mild to moderate symptoms disappearing and severe symptoms becoming mild. I can say this because of what I’ve learned over my 28 years in practice. It’s just easy for me now. Trust me, II know what I’m doing. If you don’t believe me, just read the rest of my website!
