SI 18 for Low back pain !!!
For one week there were 5 patients who suffered from unilateral Yao Yan low back pain
Some pain was due to heavy lifting or excersing and some patients got up with it without any injury. some patients were tall thin some patients were tall and built. however, all of these patients had pain stemming out from Yao Yan point (one side) often associated with radiating pain down to leg along UB channel.
pain is worse with physical activities and movement. SLR is positive.
SI 18 is used as Master tongs point (Ma geum Soo) and worked on all patients with such pain described above. there is a point 1 cun below SI 18 called Ma Gui Soo which takes care of the radiating pain along UB channel in this case.
according to the master tongs text book ma geum soo is associated with KD (so it treats inflammation of KD and so forth) and ma qui soo with UB. Addcording to Dr Kim Kwang H, these point combination treats pain which starts around HuaTouJiaJi points and down the leg. so far it worked great for low back pain around Yao Yan Point.
this type of treatment is much better than needling Yao Yan points locally.

sinus allergy
it is an allergy season. runny / stuffy nose itchy eyes coughing itchy skin etc...
many patients ask me if there is any "magic" point for seasonal allergy.
Gien Joong - master tongs point is very good for
runny stuffy nose when there is clear mucus. I treated three patients with this point and such symptoms disappeared right away.
Si Ma - master tong is great as well. the book says it works great when there is yellow or green mucus along with or without nasal congestion but it also worked when there is clear mucus as well.
there are more points or treatment meathods but as an acupuncturist we need to deferenciate different patterns to increase success rate.
