April 24th, 2013 #1


I arrived at Dr. Song’s ready to start my hours, but feeling tired. After I settled down I proceeded to crack open the book Dr. Song gave me when I started my hours and started to read. I was reading Chapter 4: Qi, Blood and Body fluid. I started out pretty well, I was able to get through the first eight pages, but I started to fall asleep. Dr. Song noticed so she told me to go lie down in one of the rooms, so she could treat me. I couldn’t pass it up, so I got myself ready. Dr. Song started with me facing up and focusing on the area around my eyes. First she placed two needles at the top of my nose just about where my eyebrows begin. Next she placed needles directly above my pupils above my eyebrows on both sides of my face. Following those, Dr. Song placed two more needles on both sides of my face directly below my pupils on my cheekbones. These points are great for eyesight problems, stress and moving the qi in the bladder and liver organs.
            Once she got done with the points on my face she placed various needles on my head. Some are for centering my qi, others are used to relieve stress, improve memory, help eyesight problems and other internal functions of the zang fu organs. Last she moved onto my arms. The most important point she emphasizes every time she does acupuncture for me, the yang lo point. This is an especially important point because this point aids in eyesight problems, stress relieving, stomach problems, memory aid, moving qi through the liver (one the most important organs in the body) and so much more, that I’m forgetting now. After she fixed all the needles to make sure they were properly in place and secured she left me to sleep.
