How to Increase Lifespan With Acupuncture

Acupuncture has many uses in human and animal medicine, many of which were nearly lost. Five Element acupuncture, one of the two branches of this ancient and tested medical discipline, has within it an easily applied method which, according to all reliable clinic data, increases lifespan. The so called "Aggressive Energy Test" (poorly translated from Chinese) drains from the body the death-promoting energy that ticks down time clock to death so that the patient has new lease on life and the transfer of energy between meridian systems takes place safely without decreasing lifespan at the expense of short-term healing. Read on to learn more about how to increase lifespan with acupuncture.

Things You'll Need

• Acupuncture needles (ideally No 3(0.2) x 50 mm J type Serien for cats, dogs and humans, larger sizes for horses.
• Reasonably steady hands
• Gentle and reasonably sensitive fingertips
• A quiet place
• Most any standard acupuncture meridian textbook or chart

Instructions

  Find an acupuncture textbook that outlines the Shu or Associated Effect Point meridian system, running down the dorsal ('back' side) of the back, parallel to midline (the UB, urinary bladder system). Find UB 13, 14, 15, 18, 20 and 23. These points should be along a line about 3 inches away from midline in human, and by scale, similar proportions of distance from midline in animals. They are depressions in the skin between the vertebral processes. You can locate these points by determining where the thoracic-lumbar junction is in the lower back and the thoraco-cervical junction is in the neck (C7 doesn't move when neck is flexed, then comes T1) or feel the line for the aforementioned points. The line should fan out a bit (then proceed backward toward tail/buttocks at UB 21). Remember that humans have 12 thoracic ribs, cats and dogs 13, horses 18 ribs (excluding Arabs, which have 17). If working on animals, consider the point between C7 and T1 as UB 11, and the points on lower back (UB 18, 20 and 23) two, zero and three depression points from the T-L junction. Proceed only if you can clearly identify these points. To position humans, have patient sit upright in chair with arms folded. For dogs, cats and horses, stand in straight line (don't curve back).

  In humans, insert needles 1mm to 2 mm into skin, so they stick up. Do the same in cats and dogs, insuring that needles stand up on their own. Then turn needles 1/4 to 1/3 turn clockwise. Leave in for 10 to 15 minutes, and keep patient stationary. With the horse, you will probably have to insert needles in for a approximately 1 cm. In humans, insert one needle away from the UB points as a control, doing the same with it.

  In humans, look for presence of a red blotch around the needles at the UB points. If you see them, keep needles in until it goes away (about 20 minutes). This is confirmation that you have drained the death-promoting chi. These are substances that have yet to be scientifically identified, but will be as research moves forward. Let the needles fall out.

  Remove needles after 20 minutes. Repeat every three to four months in elderly patients. Consult acupuncturist with experience in Five Element theory and practice to do energy transfers according to pulse diagnosis to help the meridian systems transfer electrical impulses and chi (biological substrate only beginning to be identified) between themselves so that good health if promoted, or made maximally possible given age and other biological conditions. Be ready to deal with extended life...as this method does increase life span.
