Human Harmonics – Chakras & Acupuncture points

When the Harmonics Theory is applied to the vertical dimension of a human being it predicts the locations of the chakras, or strong energy points, as well as acupuncture layers. The subtle energies of the human body and the location of the nodes of the nervous system are the result of standing waves of the nervous system.

Lower Back Muscle Pain – The TCM Perspective

Lower Back Muscle Pain – The TCM Perspective

In Chinese Medicine also Know as TCM, when pain occurs there is obstruction of the flow of Blood, Qi and Body fluids through the channels, tissues and organs. More often then not pain is a subjective ailment involving physiological, emotional and psychological issues and can thus be quite complex to treat, especially more so in the Western medical paradigm, as western science has only in very recent times, understood and acknowledged the importance of the emotional and psychological factors in causing diseased states.

Where Western Medical Science has failed dismally in treating and controlling pain, especially when it is of a chronic nature Chinese Medicine, and especially acupuncture, has filled the void quite admirably. In fact, the first forays of genuine interest in Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture were established in the 1950’s, when the first reports of operations under acupuncture analgesia were reported from China. Since then, many studies into the efficacy of acupuncture analgesia have been conducted both in the Western and Chinese arenas.

Today, although Acupuncture has achieved world fame, the general community as a whole, is more familiar and comfortable with the pain relieving effectiveness of acupuncture than with the therapy as a complete form of medicine, equal to if not more powerful than the Western model. In China, acupuncture has been used for thousands of years as a treatment for pain relief. In TCM, pain is seen as a symptom which manifests when there is a disharmony in the free flow of Qi and Blood ie. when pain occurs Qi / Blood is obstructed.

In order to accurately interpret pain and to facilitate appropriate treatment strategies, the symptom of pain (Qi and Blood stagnation in TCM) has to be analyzed according to the 8 Patterns of Differentiation. TCM can be a very effective method of recognizing and treating different types of pain and can be particularly useful in the diagnosis of back pain and lower back pain.
