My intent in releasing this book of clinical pearls for free is to provide youwith some of the best techniques I know of that will help you help your
patients. Some of the techniques in this book worked nearly every time they
are used. Over the course of this book I will not discuss many of the
techniques and protocols because some of them remain a mystery to me as
to why they work but just know they work. I will discuss some of the points
in detail to give you a little bit of understanding as to how and why these
points work for the specific treatment that we are dealing with. Please let it
be known that some of the point locations in this book are not classically in
the correct location. I know this but chose to keep them in those locations
because of how well they worked and through trial and error I have come to
the conclusion that the location is the most appropriate for that specific
protocol. I will notify you of the points that are not in the classical locations
according to Dr. Nogier.

It was never my intent to come up with these protocols as I did not havethe time nor did I wish to ever invent somebody's techniques. These
protocols and techniques happened by accident over the course of 15
years of clinical observations. Some of these protocols and techniques are
my creation and inventions and others such as this snoring protocol, Point
Zero to the rescue and the headache protocol are not my inventions. As
they are the works in creation of Dr. Nader Solomon and Dr. Richard
Niemtzow, the inventor of the Battlefield Acupuncture protocol.
I hope you enjoy this book and get as much joy and success as I have had
over the years using these techniques and clinical pearls on patients,
friends and loved ones. This is my Christmas and holiday present to the
world.

I felt it was extremely important to discuss the history of acupuncture andauricular therapy as I've come to know it. The reason for this is that although
acupuncture and auricular therapy had been mentioned in ancient Chinese
culture, I was able to trace it back to over 500 BC, predating the Chinese
culture by several hundred years. The importance of this is to show that a
Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine, used auricular therapy in his
treatments along with writing about it and teaching it at his medical school
and Kos, Greece. This is important to me because when I was discussing the
topic of auricular therapy with Western physicians, I was able to use this as
edge for them to take what I was saying seriously and for them to see that
auricular therapy has had a place in Western medicine long before the
practice of modern medicine both here in the US and around the world.

In order for me to make this book by the Christmas deadline, I chose to onlytrace auricular therapy and acupuncture back to 500 BC. Please let it be
known that other cultures and civilizations have traced back a rudimentary
form of acupuncture and auricular therapy even further back. Such as Ebers
Papyrus, among the oldest and most important medical papyri of Ancient
Egypt, that was written in 1500 BC. It now resides in the library of the
University of Leipzig, in Germany. The ancient Indian cultures described a
system which resembles acupuncture as far back as several thousand years
ago. And just in recent times with the discovery of the Iceman, also known as
the Otzi man, in the Italian Alps. Scars and marks on this preserved mummy
indicate a form of ancient acupuncture dating to pre-Europe over 5300 BC. It
is not my intent to take on who invented acupuncture or the Chinese culturedirectly but to provide as best as I can the scientific evidence that dates back
several thousand years to some of the first writings of acupuncture to appear
and Chinese culture.

Rudimentary forms of what we call auricular therapy(or auriculotherapy) today can be traced back over 2500 years ago.Hippocrates (circa 450 BC), known as the father of Westernmedicine, gives us some of the earliest forms of auricular therapyused to treat commonly seen medical conditions.
The Ebers papyrus of 1550 B.C. (now in the library of the Universityof Leipzig, in Germany) describes a system of channels andvessels in the body which approximates more closely to theChinese system of channels than to any known system of bloodvessels, lymph vessels or nerves

Hippocrates spent four years in Egypt learning medicine from
the ancient Egyptian physicians. While in Egypt Hippocrates
observed the physicians cutting the ear and scarring the ear totreat conditions from infertility to leg pain. When he returned
back home to Kos, Greece, Hippocrates wrote about and taught
that which he learned about in Egypt.

In his work titled, Generation, Hippocrates writes the following:
“Those who have incisions on the ears’ edge continue to have
coitus and ejaculate but their ejaculation is scarce, inactive and
barren.” Hippocrates continues to write about using the ear for
medical treatments in another of his books The Airs, Waters,
and Places. The Greeks and Egyptians were not the only ones
to observe using the ear for medical treatment.

One of the most recognized forms of auricular therapy comes
from the ancient Egyptian sailors. They were the first to wear
gold earrings in their ears. Placing gold needles in their ear lobesallowed the ancient Egyptian sailors to see better while at sea.
This common practice is still seen today in young girls, women
and Pirates. It was also believed that piercing the ear lobe at
birth protected children from various infections of the eye.16

The Persians also would burn the skin behind the ear with the aid of
a burning vine shoot was common practice in the treatment of
fluxion of humor (also known as discharge or flow of liquid) from the
head to hip. The Chinese also mentioned using the ear in some of
the early writings around the first century.
The Greek physician Galen introduced Hippocratic medicine to the
Roman empire in the second century AD, and commented on the
healing value of scarification at the outer ear.

Dr. Paul Nogier (1908-1996) was a physician from Lyon, France.
His father was a professor at the medical school in Lyon and was
one of the pioneers in radiology. At the age of 18 Paul Nogierentered medical school. Dr. Nogier graduated with a doctorate in
1939 on the eve of the Second World War. Before Dr. Nogier
begin his practice in Lyon he attended many seminars on topics
such as acupuncture, chiropractic and homeopathy

It was his love of learning that aided Dr. Nogier in solving the ear’s2500 year old secret
In 1951 Dr. Nogier treated two patients in his clinic within a few
weeks of each other. These two patients had something particular
in common; they both had a small scar marking in the upper partof their ear, known as the anti-helix. If only one patient entered Dr.
Nogier’s clinic with this small scar in their ear it might have gone
unnoticed. Dr. Nogier questioned his two patients about their
scars. Both patients reported that they suffered from sciatic pain.21

Both patients had initially sought out and received conventional Western
medicine and pharmacological therapy for the pain. When these
treatments failed to yield any relief, they sought the help of a localpractitioner in Marseille, France that succeeded in relieving their pain.
Intrigued by what his patients told him Dr. Nogier asked who this person
was so he could meet with them to find out what this amazing treatment
was. They told Dr. Nogier that the practitioner's name was Madame Berrin.

Dr. Nogier set out from Lyon to Marseille (200 miles south of
Lyon) to meet Madame Berrin. After meeting with Madame Berrin
and learning her technique of cauterization of the upper portion of
the anti-tragus, Dr. Nogier returned back to his clinic in Lyon.

It wasn't long before Dr. Nogier had the opportunity to treat his first
patient in his clinic with sciatic pain using Madame Berrin’stechnique. To his amazement the patient’s pain dissipated in just a
few moments. Excited about the possibility of this new treatment, Dr.
Nogier knew he had to treat more patients to verify this was not a
placebo effect.

Over time Dr. Nogier was able to relieve most of his patients with
sciatic pain within minutes to a few hours. To his dissatisfaction he
was only able to relieve pain for his patients’ pain that sufferedfrom sciatica. He tried treating other patients who suffered from
shoulder pain, neck pain, elbow pain and knee pain with no
success. It was these failures that got Dr. Nogier thinking why does
this point only treat this one condition.25

Being a student of multi-disciplines such as acupuncture and
chiropractic, Dr. Nogier knew that sciatic pain originated from theL5 S1 lumbar region. It was from this observation that Dr. Nogier
hypothesized that part of the ear might be a reflex point of the
lower back. It was from this thought that lead Dr. Nogier to his
breakthrough, what is now known as the inverted fetus in the ear.26

From that one point to treat sciatica, Dr. Nogier was able to map the
entire body on the surface of the outer ear. Five years later in 1956,
after his first observation of the scar in the ear, Dr. Nogier published
his first article on his discovery. It was in an acupuncture journal that
Dr. Nogier introduced the world to his first map of the ear. His article
was later translated into German in a respected acupuncture journal
(DZA) that was circulated worldwide.

This article caught the attention of the Chinese acupuncturists and
in the years to follow China incorporated Dr. Nogier’s discoveryinto their schools based on his work of ear. At the age of 51 Dr.
Nogier went from an unknown physician in Lyon, France, to
worldwide acclaim for his discovery of this new medical specialty
he coined as auriculotherapy (also known as auricular therapy).28

Over time there were some confusion on who discovered
auriculotherapy. Part of this confusion stems from Dr. Nogier's
replacing the barbaric technique of scarring the ear to using an
acupuncture needle in achieving the same effect. In a 1959 articlepublished in the Chinese Medical Journal Popular Medicine (Ta-
Chung-I-hsueh), the Chinese government officially credited Dr. Paul
Nogier on his discovery of the new auricular system of acupuncture
and recognized him as the “Father of Auricular Acupuncture.”29

1951 Paul Nogier treats two patients in a short period of time. Both patients had the
same small scar on their ears. His patients report the scar is from a treatment to heal
sciatica.
Later that same year Dr. Nogier travels to Marseille to meet with the practitioner
(Madame Berrin) that treated these patients on the ear to relive their back pain.
In that same year Nogier learns the scarring technique and uses it successfully inhis clinic. Nogier tries to use the same technique to treat other medical conditions
with no success.
In 1953, while he was studying manipulation techniques of the lumbo-sacral spine,
Nogier discovered a cauterized part of the antihelix could perhaps correspond to the
lumbar-sacral region of the body. After discovering that the antihelix represented the
entire spine, Nogier systematically maps out and identification the human body on thesurface of the ear.
In February of 1956 Dr. Niboyet, a leading authority in acupuncture, invited Dr. Nogier
to present his discovery at the Societe Mediterraneenne d'Acupuncture in Marseille.
In September of 1956 Nogier was invited by Dr. Gerhard Bachmann, president of the
German Association of Acupuncture, to give a similar speech in Wiesbaden.30

A few months later in 1956, the of journal Deutsche Zeitschrift für Akupunktur
(DZA) published 6 years of Dr. Nogier’s research in three different issues. The
first detailed maps of the ear were officially born.
China was the first country to translate those articles and to validate Dr. Nogier’s
new discovery. In December of 1958, the Shanghai Journal of Chinese
Pharmaceutics and Medicine, published a summary of Nogier's three articles
entitled “Introduction to ear acupuncture therapy.”
In 1959 Dr. Xu Zuo-Lin of Beijing performed clinical trials on 255 patients using
Nogier's auricular maps. Xu introduced a few new points which were linked to TCM.
One of them was shenmen (the point of vitality) which became universally popular
among acupuncturists. Shenmen is present on several Western auricular maps.
At the age of 51 Dr. Paul Nogier went from an unknown physician in Lyon, France,
to worldwide acclaim for his discovery of this new medical specialty. He coined the
term auriculotherapy for his new discovery. It is also known as auricular therapy.

Some time ago a colleague of mine proposed a question to me. I had to stopand think about it for a minute. Her question was “when was acupuncture
first used in the United States?” After thinking about it I too I was curious to
hear your answers. If you answered 1826 (we would have even acceptedanytime in the 1820’s) you would be correct. That leads me to my next
question, or should I say questions; did you know this? If not, why don’t
they teach this in every acupuncture school around the country? Before Ianswer the above questions let me first start off with most know or believeabout acupuncture in the United States.

It’s well known in the American acupuncture community that President
Richard Nixon helped usher in the acupuncture boom when he establisheddiplomatic relations with the Peoples Republic of China in 1972. Somebelieve that this was the birth of acupuncture in the United States. Maybethe rebirth, but acupuncture had a long rich history before PresidentNixon's trip to China in February of 1972.
It would safe to say that it wasn't till James Rexton, a journalist for the New York Times, wrote about this use of acupuncture in China did it take holdin this country. In July of 1971 Mr. Rexton was in China with the President’s
national security advisor Henry Kissinger as he was making finalarrangements for the president’s trip the following year.

On the morning of July 12th 1971, Mr. Rexton noticed a pain in his groinand by that evening he had a temperature of 103 degrees. The next day hechecked into the Anti-Imperialist Hospital in Peking (now called the
Peking Union Medical College Hospital as of 1985 its original name). Mr.Rexton was diagnosed with acute appendicitis and had his appendixsurgically removed that day. Two days later, Mr. Rexton receivedacupuncture for his post surgical pain. Most acupuncturists have heardthis account before, but most don’t know much about this hospital.

Construction of Peking Union Medical College, 1918
In 1913, the Rockefeller Foundation was created to oversee all the grant-giving programs of the Rockefeller family. A top priority on their list wasestablishing a school that would introduce American-style medical
science to Asia. In 1916, construction began on the Peking Union MedicalCollege (PUMC) in Peking. It was comprised of 14 hospitals, a medicalschool, and laboratory buildings. The school was modeled after JohnsHopkins University School of Medicine and was completed in 1921.

"PUMC" is the acronym for "Peking Union Medical College" – founded in 1906 bythe nationalist Chinese government and American and British Christian organizations.PUMC was then reorganized in 1917 by the Rockefeller Foundation to be, according toDr. Simon Flexner, “the Johns Hopkins of China.” Today, PUMC is one of China’s
most selective medical colleges and technically advanced hospital systems, providingmedical services to prominent political and social leaders.

th
century, acupuncture was the dernier crithroughout Europe. By the early 1820’s, acupuncture articles started to
appear in American medical journals and physicians in the US began totake notice of acupuncture experiments that were taking place in Europe.There was special interest taken in the literature coming out of France.

Bache concluded that acupuncture caused no harm to his patients. Most experienced relief from their pain, in a few casesthere was no change at all. In some cases needle insertion wouldcause moderate to severe pain before relief was achieved.
Between 1825 and 1826 Bache treated 17 more patients withacupuncture. This time, not all of the patients were inmates.
Those 17 patients suffered from the following ailments: headaches,fever, elbow tumors and pulmonary inflammation. Bache reportedthe following results.
In conclusion Bache reported that acupuncture had remarkable power for “removing and mitigating pain.”

Observations From ache’s paper
Even though Bache didn’t address the philosophy behind his acupuncture
treatments, it was obvious that he used mainly local points. With some ofhis patients, he would start off by inserting the needle right in the area of pain. For some of his patients the pain was too much and Bache had to
withdraw the needle. He also experimented with needle retention. In a fewcases Bache retained the needles in for 1 to 1.5 hours. In other cases he would retain the needles in from 3 to 10 hours and in two cases the needles were retained in for 24 hours. Bache discovered that some patientsresponded better when needles were left in for longer periods of time.
Bache concludes his paper by addressing why he did not go into the philosophy on acupuncture nor needle insertion. He refers the readerto his translation of Dr. Morand’s “ Mémoire sur l'acupuncture .“

Et al.
Bache might have been the most active physician performing acupuncture
during this time but he was not the only one.
In 1826, J. Hunter Ewing, a physician from Philadelphia, PA reportedgreat success when he used acupuncture to relieve and cure his patientsof neuralgia. Later that year Ewing published his results in North
American Medical and surgical Journal 3 (1826) 77-78.
According to Cassedy, there were two unpublished medical theses onacupuncture in 1826. One by Thomas A. Elliott in South Carolina and theother by John Jefferson Hall from the University of Pennsylvania. Although we can only document acupuncture starting in 1825, it mostlikely started before that in America. Both Bache and Elliott mentionedother physicians that had more experience in using acupuncture. Bachethanked his friend Dr. Harris for his guidance on treating the group of 12 patients. While Elliott referred to a Prof Dickerson whom he observedtreating a patient with ophthalmia.

Elliott also made a reference to Prof Ramsey and wrote the following,“to whom I am much indebted for a number of cases on which I have
experimented.” Elliott also noted a certain galvanic phenomena, when
holding the needle in his fingers.
Even though all three physicians (Dr. Harris, Prof Dickerson andProf Ramsey) used acupuncture a number of times, none published any
articles on the topic.
From Acupuncture to Electro Acupuncture
In 1829 the American edition of Tavernier’s Elements of Operative Surgery published three pages on how and when one might perform not onlyacupuncture but also ‘electro-acupuncture’. In 1853 Dr. Holl from York
County Hospital in Pennsylvania used DC though acupuncture needles totreat a longstanding nonunion of tibia fracture.

In 1836 William M. Lee of Indian Town, South Carolina writes about hisuse of acupuncture over the past 6 years (1830 – 1836.)
Lee used acupuncture to treat several cases of rheumatism. He reported
that needle insertion caused minor pain, gave quick results, and theneedles were easily accessible. Lee wrote that acupuncture was “entitled
to far more attention than it has yet received in the United States.”
One acupuncture needle in the 1820’s from England (sold by S. Maw in
an ivory case) cost one shilling. To give you an understanding of thecost, one shilling equals 12 pence. While the current currency ofEngland today the Pound contains 20 pence.

In 1835 George Washington Carpenter owner of G.E.O Chemical Warehousesold acupuncture needles through his
catalog. By all accounts GEO. WCarpenter’s Chemical Warehouse was the
first American company to sellacupuncture needles. Carpenter’s catalog
also listed moxa under the treatment ofchronic rheumatism as (Carpenter 1844n.p).
Carpenter’s medical adviser listed Robley
Dunglison’s book New Remedies (1839) asa source. Carpenter was a smart business
man and would not sell acupunctureneedles and moxa if they didn’t sell. When
Carpenter died in 1860 he owned over 400 properties and was one of 7 millionairesliving in Philadelphia at the time.

Bache may have been the most active acupuncturists of the 19th century,but Dr. Robley Dunglison was the most well known. Enter the most prominent acupuncturist of the time.
Robley Dunglison was an English-born physician who studied medicinein England, Scotland, France, and received his medical degree in 1823from the University of Erlangen in Germany. The following year,Thomas Jefferson asked him to join the first faculty at the University of Virginia as a professor of anatomy and medicine.

Dunglison, who was considered the "Father of American Physiology,”
served as Thomas Jefferson’s personal physician. He was at Jefferson’s
side during his final illness. Presidents Madison, Monroe and Jackson
also sought medical advice from Dunglison.
In 1843, Dunglison reported on his use and experimentation withacupuncture. In one report Dunglison’s advocated using larger than
average needles to drain off fluid from the cellular membrane in anasarca.Starting in 1839 Dunglison published in New Remedies, an eight pageaccount on acupuncture. For the next seven editions (the last one in 1856)this account appeared almost unchanged.
Dunglison mentions the use of acupuncture needles made from stainlesssteel, silver, gold and platina (platinum.) The stainless steel needles he
describes have a handle made of lead or wax to “prevent it from beingforced entirely into the body.” This seems to be a predecessor to themodern J type needle. He describes the steps of needle introduction byfirst stretching the skin and inserting the needle by applying gentle pressure while rotating it in both directions.

With the discoveries of medical anesthesia in the 1840’s,acupuncture articles started to disappear from medicaljournals. A search of the Surgeon General’s library index
catalog from 1850 to 1900 showed only 6 references toacupuncture published in American medical literatureduring that time. ne such reference appeared in Edward Warren’s Civil War surgical manual An Epitome of Practical
Surgery, for Field and Hospital , where acupuncture was usedto stop hemorrhaging.
In 1850 Dr. ROLKER of Cincinnati, USA (spelled Dr.
RÜLKER in some publications) mentionedcauterization of the helix as a good treatment forsciatica – employing the method of J. F. MALGAIGNE(Cauterization of the ear as a treatment for sciatica. Journal Medicine

As my co-author and I were doing research for this article, we noticed someuncanny coincidences.
First was Franklin Bache. His last name is pronounced the same way as thefamous Dutch painter Hieronymus Jerome Bosch.
In Dr. Paul Nogier’s first book Treatise of Auriculotherapy , the author starts off with a detail from the “hell” panel of Bosch’s triptych The Garden of Earthly
Delights . Dr. Nogier was French and the first book on acupuncture in America was the one that Franklin Bache translated from French.
Second is our connection to George Washington Carpenter, the first personto sell acupuncture needles in the US. Carpenter lived in Germantown, PA
while my co-author and I live in Germantown, MD.

The following protocol is based on the clinical observationmade by Dr. Paul Nogier and his colleague Dr. ReneBourdiol of the painting by Jerome (Hieronymus) Bosch(1450-1515). The painting is titled “Garden of Earthly
Delights.” It is a triptych, a three panel painting. Nogierand Bourdiol experimented by needling their patients at thepoints of entry and exit of the spear on the right ear in thepanel of the painting, which is titled “Hell.” The protocol
can be used to increase a person’s libido or decrease theirsexual compulsion.

According to Dr. Nader Soliman, the Bosch po in t
corresponds to the external genitalia (clitoris and glans
penis) in Phase 1, and the pineal gland in Phase 3.
The Jerome point is found at the projection site of the
pons and midbrain in Phase 1. Serotonin produced in
the pons and midbrain is believed to have an inhibitory
effect on sexual functions.

The snoring protocol was the first Clinical Pearl video I had evermade.
If you watch the video you will see what I mean. This PDF contains thesame information as the video but it’s much clearer and I go into detail
for each step of this protocol. At the end I will tell you where you canfind all the supplies you will need to perform this protocol.
When done correctly this protocol will work wonders for not only your patients but for their spouses / significant others that have to sleep withthem every night.
Sleep is one (if not the most) important thing your patients can do tohelp themselves heal. Without sleep or enough sleep the body can’t
repair itself and will breakdown even further over time.

Clinical Pearl to Treat Snoring
8/16/2019 clinicalPbook 2ed
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/clinicalpbook-2ed 72/276
I have treated many patients with this technique. On average it takes from1 to 3 days to see any results. If after one week your patient is still snoringor they report just a small improvement, recheck your points, repeat thestimulation, and add or replace your needles.
This seems to happen more often when you only use needles without firststimulating the points and or spot or marks. Don’t forget to check the back(posterior) part of the ear.

If you do not have a point finder/stimulator that can deliver
73Hz (Nogier F zone), then just needle the areas you found with thepoint finder. Using a point stimulator that can’t deliver 73Hz
will not help your patient. The only FDA approved point stimulatorthat can deliver Nogier F zone is the Stim Flex 400A. It delivers80Hz, which will work.

Before needling the points, you need to first stimulate the points and/orareas with the correct Hz. This is an important part of the protocol, butyou can still get some results with just needling the points and areas.
The correct stimulation for the snoring points are Nogier F (73 Hz).80 Hz will also work on these points too. See the following page forthe correct frequency locations.

Step-by-Step instructions
1. Use your point finder / stimulator to find the points on the Helix Tail /Lobe area. Don’t forget to check the back of the ear. There may be
more than one active point on each ear, sometimes up to 3 per ear.
2. After you find each point, stimulate it for 30 seconds (per point) withNogier’s “F” frequency. It is 73 Hz; 80 Hz is fine too.
3. After you treat all the points you find on both ears, use a pair of tweezers to inserta Spinex needle into each point.
4. Cut a small piece of Steri-Strip just big enough to cover the Spinexneedle head.
5. Place one piece of Steri-Strip at a time on the tip of a probe and place over the head of the needle. Do this for all needles.
6. Apply a small amount of Mastisol on the tip of the Q-tip. Lightly apply the Mastisolover the Steri-Strip on each needle. Make sure the area is clear of hair so you do notget any Mastisol in the hair. Let it dry for a few moments.

If you detect and find points on the posterioraspect of the ear, electrically stimulate those points too and alsoinsert a needle into them.
Just like the anterior (front part of the ear) use Nogier Hz F, or 73Hz of E-stim for 30 seconds on each point. After you stimulatethe points, needle them.

Holding the needle and inserting it
You will need a good set of eyes and an even better pair of tweezers to hold and insert the Spinex needles.
The needle I used on the following page was 4mmI like to use the 3mm needle but the 4mm took a better picture.
Tweezerman makes a really nice pair of tweezers; it’s
easy to hold the Spinex needle and see it at the same time.

If there are no red spots or visual marks on the ear, place the needle and or
needles right on the spot that you just stimulated (if your have a stimulator).
In most instances the electro-stimulation device will leave a small round mark onthe spot you just stimulated and makes the point easy to identify. This mark willdisappear in a minute or two.

Placing of the Steri-Strip
1. It is easier to place Steri-Strips over the needles this wayrather than using your fingers.
2. This way it will not stick to you or become crimped up.
NOTE: Cut the Steri-Strip just a little larger than the
Spinex needle head.
Once you cut a small piece of the Steri-Strip, you will wantto place it on the tip of a probe for two reasons:

If you can’t get Mastisol or want
to use something in it’s place, you
can try “New Skin”. You can pick
this product up at any drug storeor your local Wal-Mart or TargetStore.
I have never tried it but was told fromothers it will work too. It’s also much
cheaper than Mastisol. The applicationprocess is the same as Mastisol.

Your patient should notice an improvement in their snoring from 1 to 3 days after you treat them.
If your patient reports that after one week thereis no improvement in their snoring, have themcome back in and recheck the points with yourpoint finder. If you don’t have a point finder /
stimulator, then replace all the needles.

your patient down very quickly. I have only done thistechnique when my patient‘s had a red spot on theHeart phase 3 point.
Most of the time this point will only be on one ear.If it’s on both ears, then bleed both points.

Neuropathy - also known as peripheral neuropathy,
polyneuropathy (to signify that it typically affects more
than one nerve) and also simply as nerve pain - is a
complication found in a number of different underlyingconditions. When the underlying cause has not been
diagnosed, doctors call it idiopathic neuropathy.
What is neuropathy?
Neuropathy means damage to nerves in the peripheral
nervous system, and so it affects nerves outside of the
brain and spinal cord - it does not include nerve
damage in the central nervous system.1

Only treat one area at a time
Even if your patient has multiple areas of neuropathy, only
treat one area at a time. This means if your patient has
neuropathy in both feet or hands, pick only one. I ask the
patient what affected area is the worst, then I treat that area.
This treatment is preformed by itself. Don’t treat any other
conditions the patient may have on that day. Have them come
back to address those issues at that time.

it’s applied on the foot. For hands, use the principle, two needlesabove and below your patient’s neuropathy. I always place two
needles (even if it’s only in the hand) at elbow level. I find that
works well for me.

Once you find the area that’s affected by neuropathy in your
patient, place 4 needles (2 needles above and 2 needles below
that effected area) in non acupuncture points and off the meridian.
Place all 4 needles as close to the bone as you can. Touching thebone is just fine. The closer to the bone you get, the better the
results will be. When connecting the electrodes, cross the
negative and positive over the leg for each electrode (see
following pages.)© Auriculotherapy Seminars LLC 2015

The following pages show needle placement for thispatient’s neuropathy. Each patient will have different
affected areas. The key is to place the needles above and
below these areas.
Remember that these areas should be off theacupuncture points and meridians, for the best results.

Once you find your points and insert the needles, you are now
ready for the most important part of this protocol, crossingthe electrodes. This is done by taking one lead and clipping it
on a needle. Then you will clip the other lead on the needle
that is on the opposite side of the leg from the first needle.
The leads should make and “X” over the (in this case) middle
of your patients shin. On the following pages you’ll see how
this is done.

The Electric Stim machine
Once all four of your needles are inserted, make sure your
E-stim machine is set to deliver 2 Hz for 30 minutes.
Turn on your machine and ask your patient to let you know
when they start to feel the stimulation. Once they can feel it,
bring the intensity up to where it’s strong but comfortable. If
your patient can’t feel the stimulation, don’t exceed 5 out of 10on the intensity dial.

Frequency and duration
Your patient’s neuropathy will start to feel better as they are
coming off the table. For best results, have your patient come
in twice a week for this treatment.
Your patient will feel much better after 3 to 4 treatments.I receive the best and maximum results after 5 to 8 treatments.
This technique will transform your patient’s life.

Electrotherapy/Piezoelectricity
8/16/2019 clinicalPbook 2ed
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/clinicalpbook-2ed 167/276
In 1880 two French physicists, Jacques and PierreCurie, discovered piezoelectricity.
The word piezoelectricity means electricity resultingfrom pressure.
Piezoelectricity is a safe and effective means of
electrotherapy. A Piezo Pen takes the place ofstanding on an electric fish.

What is a Piezo Pen and how does it work
8/16/2019 clinicalPbook 2ed
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/clinicalpbook-2ed 168/276
The piezoelectric stimulator (Piezo Pen) is an instrument that
works by means of pressure exerted onto a quartz crystal,
which results in a tiny electric charge. There is no battery or
electrical source. It works with the existing living human electricfields.
This device was studied by Japanese scientists who were
fascinated by the intimate relationship between the human body
and electricity. The brain, heart, muscles, and even individual
cells produce tiny amounts of electricity.

Acupuncture point used to increase lactation in breastfeeding mothers was Small intestine 1 (SI 1). SI 1 isknown as an empirical point to increase lactation.
The Small intestine meridian has a total of 19 points.The first point, SI 1, starts at the lateral corner of thepinky finger (both hands) and travels up the arm to SI19, just lateral of the tragus of the ear.

The treatment of insufficient lactation in nursing women withthe use of classical Chinese acupuncture point SI 1 and thePiezo pen.
Imagination was the key to this protocol working. You couldhave used a needle on SI 1, but with repeated use, it is painfuland may cause soreness or infection. Using the Piezo Penwould allow for multiple treatments throughout the day andyour patients can do this at home.

Why Piezo pen and not needles
According to Peter Deadman (A Manual of Acupuncture) SI 1 can be needled or pricked to bleed.
According to Howard Et al. Small intestine 1 can bestimulated by Piezo Pen. We have observed that it’s
safer and more efficient for multiple stimulations ofthat point each day.

On average my patient produced 30 to 60 mL’s of milkper pumping. Mom was prescribed pain medicine dueto delivery and had to discard all the milk she pumpedin the 5 days she was on the medicine.
My patient pumped 8 times per day (every 3 hours). Shereceived more milk from her right breast than her leftbreast. She is right handed.
For the first week her baby was consuming (1 to 5mL’s of milk every three hours). By week 6 her baby
was consuming 384 mL’s per day.

How to perform the protocol
8/16/2019 clinicalPbook 2ed
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/clinicalpbook-2ed 185/276
Just before your patient is about to pump (within aminute or two) have her or her husband stimulate SI1 with the Piezo Pen.
Place one finger on SI 1 and on the other hand place thePiezo Pen on SI 1.
If your patient has no one around to help her, just have herstimulate SI1 on each hand with the Piezo Pen. Stimulateeach point 10 to 15 times.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/clinicalpbook-2ed 191/276
Example:
If your patient is getting at least 75 mL’s of milk out of one breast
you can use the Piezo Pen on one hand. The hand on the sideof the breast that is producing less than 75 mL’s of milk.
In my patient’s case her left breast would always produce
less than 75 mL’s of milk and her right breast would produce
at least 75 mL’s of milk. In this case I would only use thePiezo pen on her left hand. As seen in the picture on thenext page.

With one hand, hold the Piezo Pen in the palm of yourhand with the head (gold part) facing down. Place yourthumb on top of the Piezo Pen.
With your other hand (two person technique) take yourindex finger and place it On SI 1. Make sure when youtreat that both the Piezo Pen and your finger are touchingyour patient’s skin. Touching any clothing or jewelry will
negatively affect the results.
Push down on the plunger (top of the Piezo Pen and click10 to 15 times on each hand. Both you and your patientwill feel a slight shock each time you click the Piezo Pen.

How many times a day can you use/treat with the Piezo pen
Contraindications for using the Piezo pen
How long do they last and care of your Piezo pen
You can use the Piezo pen as many times as you pump in a day.I have personally used mine upwards of 20 times in one day.
Anyone with a pacemaker, either patient or person clicking
the Piezo pen, should NOT do this protocol.
Up to three years or 10,000 clicks. It must be touching skin when clicked.
If you click it and it is not touching anything it will run out much quicker.

Start off by using the correct Hz on each point thenfollow up by needling the points.
In some cases, the points may have a discolored spotover the point (as you can see in the last page of this

different protocols. We can say there is a fast method (called the “N”
point) and a slower method. The slower method (which includes 3auricular points) also works when the faster “N” point doesn’t work or
does not totally relieve your patient’s headache.
The “N” point method (named after the inventor, Dr. Richard Niemtzow)
is just one needle in your patient’s scalp, just above the helix. This pointis found on the scalp, just posterior to the Omega 2 point (see picture onpage…)
The “N” point needle is placed on the same side that your patient is
experiencing their headache. The opposite side may be used, and I willdiscuss when and why to use it.

First ask your patient what side their headache is on. If they say it’son both sides, then ask which side hurts the most?
Ask them how long have they had the headache and what is their
pain level on a scale of 0 though 10. 0 meaning no pain, and 10 means
they need to seek medical attention. (They might have a serious medicalemergency, such as meningitis or a tumor.)
Once you determine they are a good fit for this protocol, and know their
pain level and what side their headache is on, you may begin.
Your patient tells you their headache is on their left side.Insert the acupuncture needle into the “N” point.

It should not go in deep, just until the end of the needle handleis flush to the guide tube. Then remove the guide tube. The needleshould rest on the top of the helix over the Omega 2 point.
Results
Your patient should be headache free or very close to it within30 seconds. If they say the pain moved to the other side of theirhead or they have a headache on both sides, then do the same
thing on the opposite “N” point. Wait 30 seconds and ask themhow they are doing and if they are headache free yet.

You can use the 3 auricular point method if your patient does notrespond to the “N” point.
If they need some more time with the needles in (you can leave the“N” point in,) then insert needles in the following 3 auricular points:
Omega2, Shenmen and Point Zero. Do this bilaterally.
If your patient requires a full acupuncture treatment because that iswhat they are used to.

They don’t have a headache today, but they will have one when their
period starts?
If this is the case, use the 3 acupuncture needles (Omega 2, Shenmenand Point Zero) on both ears and have them lay down for 30 minutes.
When they get up from their treatment, place 3 gold needles (a total of 6 ASP needles) in each of the 3 auricular points they just had in.Do both ears, have them retain the needles in for 3 to 5 days.

back to writings of Dr. Paul Nogier in his classic book Treatise of Auricular Therapy . In chapter 7 of this book, Dr. Nogier discusses in
detail the phenomenon he observed in the early days of auricular
therapy. He goes into detail on how if you are not able to detect a
painful point (also referred to him by him as a neurohormonal point) this
can be rectified by stimulating Point Zero to bring the ear back online.
This not only works in auricular therapy, but also when my body
acupuncture points have reached a plateau where it has stopped
resulting in a successful treatment. Please also let it be known as a
clinical observation (and please take this only as a clinical observation)I've noticed that this technique has also worked for some Western
pharmaceutical medicines.

It makes the medications work again on patients who have become
immune to these onetime successful pharmaceuticals. I am talkingabout the use of medications for depression that were once effectivefor that patient over time losing its potency to once again having thesame effect when first started.

As I mentioned before there are two ways to stimulate Point Zero to
bring about lasting results from treatments that have stopped working.
The first technique is by using regular acupuncture needles, any size or
length are sufficient. I personally use Seirin L-style number three
needles when I use this technique with acupuncture needles. It can also
be accomplished by using electrical stimulation also known as TENS on
Point Zero.

These are only two needles that should be in the body at this time. Letthose needles stay in Point Zero for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes,remove the needles and at that time you can begin your treatmentthat once worked on this patient and it will work again To perform thistechnique with TENS do as followed, stimulate Point Zero (it doesn'tmatter what side you start with first) for two minutes at 10 Hz, thenswitch ears and do the same on the other ear for two minutes with 10Hz.

• Over time, the Battlefield Acupuncture protocol may stop working ornot work as well on some patients that previously had good results
• To reset the points on the ear, I use the Stimplus Pro Micro CurrentStimulator
• You can use any point stimulator that can stimulate at 10hz
• Stimulate the real Point Zero, the one you learned in school, for twominutes on each ear
*No Stimulator… then needle the “true” Point Zero, OR you mayalso place 1 inch acupuncture needles in Point Zero for 30 minutes

recovery process and prevent injury from the race.
These needles can be placed from upwards from 48 hours to 10
minutes prior to the runners’ event. The best needles to use are gold
ASP needles. I have tried many different types of needles and found
that these work best. I will say that prior to using this technique onthe executive of one of the largest needle companies in the world,
they gave me their brand of needles with tape on the back of them in
place of the ASP needles. To their amazement, they were able to
lower their 5K run time from 35 minutes down to 29 minutes and 20
seconds just by using this technique. For distances 5 km or less a
substitute needle with tape on the back such as a Pyonex may be
substituted for the gold ASP needles.
231
Here I would like to briefly mention a few the points in their effects on the body.
ACTH Point (adrenocorticotropic hormone)

According to Dr. Kropej in his book titled The Fundamentals of Ear Acupuncture,Second Edition here's what he says about the point ACTH:
“It is used (ACTH Point) in cases of mental and physical exhaustion, and must
be considered for the treatment of painful disorders of the joints and
spondylopathy.”
232
In Oleson's Third Edition Auriculotherapy Manual, in the second chapter he
states the following:
“Whereas ACTH and cortisol are more associated with neurobiological
response to stress, they can reach levels high enough to activate long periods
of stimulation of the acupuncture anesthesia pathways.”
Cortisol Point
THALAMUS POINT (Hypothalamus Point)
The thalamus point (hypothalamus) is a reflex area which lies behind

the antitragus. I found this point which has a direct influence ondiuresis: the diuresis point when stimulated, points to the bladder. This
is part of my hypothesis on how the body rids itself of a buildup of lactic
acid for my athletes in their events. In his book, Dr. Kropej goes on to
explain that this point is able to alleviate or eliminate all unilateral,
usually homolateral, pain in the body. And interestingly, systolic bloodpressure can be regulated with this point. By using a gold needle on
this point, the blood pressure is lowered.
233
Dr. Nogier observed that this point normalizes blood pressure and,
because of its considerable therapeutic effect, was dubbed the
marvelous point.

Wang Junxia ran under the old world records four times in threeevents over six days in September 1993. If legitimate, it would be thegreatest concerted multiple-event performance in the history ofdistance running. In Sunday's heats of the 3,000 meter run, fiveChinese women bettered the old world record. Wang Junxia went on
to set the 3000 meter WR the following day in 8:06. The oldest trackworld record on the books was the 1500 meter. It stood for 13 years.In one race, two Chinese women broke the world record by 6 seconds.
