BIOPUNCTUREThe Bridge between Tradition Acupuncture and Mainstream Medicine

Biopuncture- A therapy utilizing biological

medicines and local anesthetics for injection in specific sites on the body to treat pain and physiological dysfunction.

Biopuncture Basics

Two Key Factors

1. What to inject.2. Where to inject.

Technique

Characteristics I Therapeutic aim regulation of cell, tissue, and organ

function = BIOREGULATION Uses microdoses of medications with high biological

value and high molecular weight (hormones, nutrients, botanicals).

Uses homeopathic medications of low molecular weight and matched to cell receptor value.

Mainly injection into mesoderm – but also into ligaments, muscle, around discs, scars, nerve plexus, and intravenous

Involves multiple sites Low toxicity and minimal to no local tissue damage, so

treatments are frequent : 1-3 times per week

BiopunctureExcludes dangerous and toxic substances

and techniquesProvides fast and long lasting resultsUtilizes novel and hybrid clinical

strategies

Three Basic Principles

MedicationLow-Dose Biologics Procaine or Lidocaine

MEDICATIONSHomeopathic Antihomotoxic Remedies (D3-D23) and Physiological

Regulating Medicine (PRM)Procaine (0.5-1.0%) or lidocaine (0.3-0.5%)Normal SalineGlucose/Dextrose 0.5-5% (no more than 15%) Herbal extracts in dilutions of 1:10 with normal saline or combined

with homeopathic medications or procaineVitamins, minerals, amino acids Hyaluronic acid (non-sulfated glycosaminoglycan)Hormones & Growth FactorsOther homeopathic medications – Sanum, PascoePharmaceutical Drugs:

NSAIDS (Feldene-piroxicam)AntibioticsSteroids (Depo-Medrol)

Acupuncture Point Histology

Intradermal & Mesodermal Injection Level Epidermis: 0.8-1.4 mm

thick Dermis: 0.6-3.0 mm; or

more on the back, soles, and palms – contains fibroblasts (which synthesizes collagen, elastin, and connective tissue)

Hypodermis: 4-13 mm; up to 3 cm on the abdomen and composed of loose connective tissue and fatty tissue

2.0-4.0 mm

Reflex Organ ZonesSingle point injection using multiple sitesIntradermal or mesodermal2-6 sites; up to 10-123 times weekly for acute conditions; 1 time weekly

for sub-acute and resolving conditions; 1 time monthly for long standing chronic cases

“Zone” related to corresponding target organStimulate drainage and detoxificationHas effect on target organ or tissue

Liver Reflex Zone

Liver Reflex Injection ApplicationLiver and gall bladder conditionsOther gastrointestinal conditionsDetoxification of the liverDrainage of the upper and lower

gastrointestinal systemAbdominal pain

Liver Meridian Therapeutic Corresponding Points LV 14 – chronic LV 13 – acute LV 10, 11, 12 – pelvic LV 8 – kidney and liver yin deficiency LV 5 – genital urinary

Start with diagnosis Choose method of injection Choose medication Choose needles and syringes, and/or acupuncture

needles Select acupoints and injection sites Consider reflex zones Confirm therapeutic location and injection sites

with manual examination Prepare patient and disinfect sites Inject accordingly Clean sites and apply bandage if necessary
