New paper just published: The Use of Du 16 feng fu in the Treatment of Depression and Anxiety: Significant, Immediate Improvements in Two Severe Cases
Dr. TJ Wang • November 5, 2020
Two cases are reported where the specific needling of the acupuncture point Du 16 feng fu appeared to provide immediate and lasting clinical improvements for two patients suffering from severe depression and anxiety where a range of other treatments, acupuncture and conventional, had failed. Conventionally, acupuncture treatment of psychological disorders has focussed predominantly on the peripheral channels and organ pattern syndrome differentiation. Our results indicate that treatment strategies which more directly target the du mai, brain and autonomic nervous system may be clinically more effective than conventional body acupuncture alone for the treatment of psychological disorders; and that Du 16 feng fu may be uniquely effective. This approach is supported by classical TCM theory, the neurocentric understanding of psychological disorders in modern medicine, as well as the increasing evidence for the central role that various neurological mechanisms play in acupuncture’s therapeutic effects.

Four days, from Friday to Monday, with Monday being the Queen's Birthday holiday. The trainees are mainly from all over Australia, with a small number from Malaysia and Singapore. It is conceivable that they have overcome many difficulties and spent time and money to study. Some of the intended applicants gave up because the epidemic has not yet completely ended. As a lecturer, I can only do my best to impart what I know, clinical perception, experience, etc. to the students without reservation, and guide the students in location, needling, techniques, etc. The on-site demonstration, consultation, and treatment are as detailed, comprehensive, and practical as possible. All the students persisted until the end of the course at 5:00 pm on the last day, and none of them left early. Even at the last minute, they were reluctant to give up, applauded and thanked, and said that they were looking forward to seeing me again in soon future. A participant feedback me today, "We really want to thank you for teaching us scalp acupuncture and your experience. I have learned a lot from you. When I come back to Singapore, I have used your method to treat some depression. stroke and pain patients, the effect is really extraordinary. The effect is really improved. I will do more research and study in this area, and I will notify you first if there is any new discovery.”This is a subtitle for your new post
