@MrJulesNapier This being the case acupressure would be no different than massage. If you read the study the toothpick was used to fool the patient to thinking it was a needle. The patient was blindfolded the toothpick was used in a similar fashion so that the poke felt like the needle. Patients were not told that they were receiving acupuncture with toothpicks.
@MrJulesNapier The aforementioned studied show that needles did not need to be inserted in order to receive the same affect. Surely ancient cultures could have used a blind fold and simply done the tooth pick idea without inserting needles into the skin. I am not to well versed in acupressure. I do believe it is simply the basis of acupuncture but without needles. My response would be that the where the needles or pressure or toothpicks were placed did not matter.
@MrJulesNapier What i meant by the placebo effect and immunizations is that I meant when a person is given a placebo, how that placebo is administered has an effect on the placebo effect. Capsules work better than pills, and injections being the most effective. When people think that something will work they think something like a needle will work best. It is not about dose, but rather method of distribution.
@MrJulesNapier Again the placebo effect is found to have differing levels of response. With immunizations ranking as the most effective as a placebo reaction. This follows suit with acupuncture. Acupuncture is based on qi, and meridian point needle insertion. If there is no baring in meridian points and needles then the whole premise of acupuncture falls apart. The toothpick therapy would simply be placebo therapy which only superficially deals with pain.
@MrJulesNapier Yes but you forget the two most important points. 1) The areas at which the needles or toothpicks were inserted did not matter which causes the premise of acupuncture to be faulty. 2) If needles and insertion are not required for the same benefit then there is no need for them. No more acupuncture with needles is just that simple. I personally think it needs more work into how the body will illicit a response when it thinks it gets treatment.
@MrJulesNapier About the tattooing. Tattooing has never been a medical treatment, therefore the risks involved are not to improve health but are for superficial means, so the two practices need not be compared. That would be like comparing heroine use to use of morphine at a hospital for pain mediation. I apologize for not discussing the paper further, 500 characters does not allow for much. If you want to discuss this further inbox me and I will be more than happy to
@MrJulesNapier Arch Intern Med. 2009;169(9):858-866. You cannot double bind something like acupuncture treatment because it has to physically be administered. My citation is the paper to which i refer.The gist of it was, the toothpicks were used in the same fashion as the needles, the patients were blind folded, and essentially they thought they were getting real acupuncture. Watch concordances video on acupuncture. (C0nc0rdance)
@MrJulesNapier Acupuncture is shown to have no better affect than a placebo acupuncture demonstration using a toothpick. Actually the toothpick had higher ratings. Using acupuncture with tooth picks not needles. The needles run risks with things like infection, or having the needles break off, or puncturing too far. Please, talk to your health care professional about the dangers of acupuncture. There are benefits, but nothing that can be obtained by simply using a tooth pick.
@Vigatos Acupuncture is not recognized as a legitimate treatment (for anything) by any professional medical association. Meaning, no scientific merit. You have the nerve to ask me for “scientific proof”?! Honey, the onus is on YOU to prove that this procedure does anything more than provide a mood lift. To date, acupuncture has not been scientifically proven to help anyone with their physical ailments. Just like that unscientific cult called chiropractic.
too bad internet physicality is not possible, as i would love to step through the screen for an acupuncture session from the girl in the video.
The same / similar studies that show that acupuncture has no benefit or noticeable effect also say that Chinese medicine/herbology is ineffective, that Qi Gong does not effect the body, and that there is no need to stretch before and after exercising. They would also argue that pressure points are are a myth. Pressure points can heal and enable, or disable and kill. Accupuncturists require extrodinary levels of training. A single miss in the wrong place can cause pain unlike anything else.
I’ve read that controlled studies show that accupunture has no benefit over placebo (placebo being toothpicks)
@BreakingImageFilms ask some drug addicsts…
Very interesting! More please!
i’d be stressed if i had a gay tattoo on my arm like that
@Vigatos There have been plenty of studies that have shown that the only real effect Acupuncture and other alternative ‘medicine’ practices have on the body are the release of endorphins. It’s a psychological effect, based on being able to relax the mind and body. You think it works, and therefore it does. I think as far as being better than normal medicine, it’s bogus, but if it helps people feel better, it’s at least doing something right.
@Vigatos Well to be fair to 13Xanadu, I’ve always wondered what is supposed to be effected in acupuncture? What is supposed to be going on? When a doctor administers a particular drug or performs a particular procedure there is a very concrete part of the body being affected in a concrete way to achieve a particular concrete result. Acupuncture just seems to be “whatever” about cause/effect relations. That seems to suggest that acupuncture DOES defy categorization as a real science.
very informative..i am not sure why people call it a peusdo science when it works..i had this one prof in uni that said that if it wasnt for acpunture, she prob woudl not be able to walk now.
wow great great
how are needles supposed to relax you??
What are you Steven Seagal
@13Xanadu Where is your scientific evidence for that to be true? Oh wait, you have none, just your stupid ignorant opinion. How about YOU stay away. Thanks.
People like you don’t know shit and probably look like a ugly troll with sewer feet and breath.
Why is there a Master’s Degree in a pseudoscience like “accupuncture?” This is nonsense from a bygone era. Any effects that this ancient practice has on an individual are purely psychological. If you think it will work, you just might feel better after a “treatment.” This is just more homeopathy, not an “alternative” to real science-based medicine. Stay away, folks.
Be careful while needling Liver 3. It can occasionally bring down the BP of an individual suddenly and can lead to stroke. Measure the BP of the individual before using this point. This is the only acupuncture point known to cause over correction and defies otherwise homoeostasis effect of the acupuncture session.
@crabcutter It depends on what nerves you hit.
.nice video on acupuncture!
why the hurry Tim?
a luva descartável é importante caso haja contato com sangue, em algumas técnicas chinesas em que há sangue é importante usar as luvas, e ao retirar as agulhas sempre ter um algodão em mãos, porém a luva atrapalha o acupunturista em achar os pontos, pois o tato é muito importante, e as agulhas sao simples e faceis de colocar, nao há necessidade.
it doensn’t hurt, speccially this point on the belly, you can barely feel the needle
it kinda look like it might hurt the way she kinda slapped the needle… I was wanting to do the acupuncture for fertility but I was curious if its painful… Can anyone give advice on it and honestly tell me if it hurts
excellent work!
Also it would have been nice if we would have seen/hear some explanation along with it. I am only a student and curious who is doing what and why? Thank you!
I noticed that too … hmmmm. Maybe she ordered the wrong needles – like once they did at our school.
This procedure takes about twice as long opening needles one at a time like that. Pulling back the casing on a 5 strip is much faster, and if placed on a clean field is also safe. Seems like you are otherwise very time efficient. Any particular reason for your technique Shasta?
esse é o terceiro video de acunputura que eu vejo e em nenhum dos três é usado luva descatável, por quê?
Hey, my acupuncturist uses those Japanese needles, too! She’s getting her doctorate at Five Branches Institute, also in San Jose.
