The Internal Dragons acupuncture treatment involves using needles to stimulate the growth of new nerves and blood vessels. In the short term, there is some evidence to support this approach. Some practitioners have shown good results in non-healing wounds using a technique known as “fencing the dragon.”
Five Element Constitutional Acupuncture
Five Element constitutional acupuncture is a form of acupressure that treats internal dragons by enhancing the balance between the five elements. Unlike other forms of acupuncture, which primarily focus on the body, acupuncture for internal dragons is rooted in Chinese medicine. These methods are based on the principles of acupressure, and the acupuncturist will determine the most appropriate treatment for each patient based on these characteristics.
Five Element Constitutional Acupuncture is a classical style of Chinese medicine, with roots in the classics of the Han dynasty. It adheres to the Nei Jing, a collection of philosophies and principles that govern the practice of acupuncture. This method is particularly effective in treating internal dragons because it focuses on both the root and the manifestation of the illness.
Chong Meridian acupuncture
The Chong Meridian is a central channel in the body that carries blood. It belongs to the Yangming system. Acupuncture points in this channel harmonize with points that are not on the Chong Meridian. These treatments are very effective for internal dragons because they target the causes of disease, not simply the symptoms. Chong Meridian acupuncture treatment for internal dragons should be performed regularly to maintain overall health and well-being.
Patients with a negative emotional disposition are most suitable for this treatment. Although Chong Meridian acupuncture treatment does not induce re-experience of previous feelings, it can help change the patient’s demeanor and emotional presence. In addition, the Chong Meridian acupuncture treatment opens the psychological aspect of the Chong Mai (one of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians) (literally, the “Great Way”). It helps the patient directly experience the heart then, the central part of the body where basic aspects of identity and meaning of life are held.
Seven Dragons acupuncture
The Chinese medicine tradition of the seven dragons evolved from the shamanic arts of ancient China. The ancient Chinese believed that people could be possessed by spirits and had an internal fluid called GUI, or phlegm. These notions have been largely removed from Chinese medicine, but the tradition of five-element acupuncture continues to follow the traditions of the past. The Seven Dragons acupuncture treatment is one such tradition.
The Seven Dragons acupuncture treatment helps the possessed person reconnect to their true self. It is said that the body is home to seven beneficial dragons who patrol the body and expel evil spirits. During the treatment, 7 needles are placed on the back and front of the patient, and they are left in for 20 minutes or so. The number seven is considered sacred in eastern cultures, representing the final ascent of the Chakra system in the Hindu tradition. Chinese mythology says that dragons protect and deliver. Dragon boat festivals are still popular today. In the treatment, seven needles awaken 7 dragons in the body.
Treatment of the aggressive energy block
When treating a patient, it is important to understand the relationship between external and internal dragons. External dragons have more to do with external causes, whereas internal dragons are more associated with internal conditions. It is important to understand the difference between the two, and what each means in the context of acupuncture. This article provides an overview of the relationship between the two types of dragons.
When treating an aggressive energy block, the practitioner will first test for its presence on a patient’s body and spirit. This is usually done by inserting test needles in non-acupuncture points, such as the bladder. Acupuncture points that correspond to these elements are bladder thirteen (lungs correspondence), bladder 14 (circulation-sex correspondence), bladder 20 (spleen correspondence), bladder 15 (“heart” correspondence), and shu (reproductive organs).
Using fewer needles to achieve maximum change in qi
The acupuncture theory states that qi flows through the body in 12 main channels, which correspond to the major organs. These channels are accessed by various points on the body. The technique involves stimulating the acupuncture points using fewer needles and allowing qi to flow through the channels. It is a very effective treatment for many conditions and has been used by Chinese medicine practitioners for centuries.
In the Editing zone, a first needle is inserted across the governing channel (GV line) to affect the facial and eye areas. The second needle is inserted into this area and then crosses over the first. A series of cross-over needles may be inserted in the Editing zone, including as many as three pairs.
