Case #4 G.F.
s/sx: pain in the shoulder blade.
1:
hand taiyang – foot taiyang
2: LR (best because of structural similarity)

3: Shoulder blade is imaged by LR 4.5 to LR 5.5
area. Bony. So to treat a bone problem, needle the
bone. Treating tendons, needle the tendon, etc.
LR 4.5A (A stands for ashi), 3 needles around the
ashi point area.
Now the pain moved to the shoulder joint. So now
there is bone and muscle.
LR4A area is the place to stick more needles.
Case 1: A.K. Car accident, pain now on the neck,
upper back, lower back, palpitation (as a result of
chest hit by the steering wheel)
Step 1: Foot taiyang, UB sick, also du channel

Step 2: system 2, lung balances taiyang bilaterally
since she has bilateral pain
Step 3: LU 8,5 bilaterally.
Now the pain is in the neck and in the spine. We
haven’t treated the spine yet.
What channel balances the du channel? Scalp, c7, t1
is where the suture and du line crosses. Look of ashi
there.
50% less pain now. So to get rid of the residual pain,
you need to palpate for EXACT ashi point. Lu 5.82 to
be exact
Question
What to needle for the palpitation? Du
treats the ren.
If you want to focus on treating the
heart, add PC6.
The tailbone images the protrusion
around the du channel around the
occipital area.
Case 2: L.W. meniscus tear on the lateral side of the
left knee, pain on the lateral side, above and below
the knee
Step1: Foot taiyang and shaoyang and in

between.
Step 2: LU, chinese clock opposite side, HT
balance the Shaoyang
Step3: LU5,up and down 3 cun 2 needles,
HT3, 1 Ashi, 3 cun down 1 Ashi, PC 3 (that’s in
between the LU, Ht which is in between UB
and GB on the leg). Elbow images the knee
Tip: This patient’s pain is an AREA, so needle
an AREA around the elbow.
Lu5 area to treat the residual UB 40 pain.
Case 3: D.R. Finger pain, left middle finger, right at

mu huo, first and second metaphalangeal joint, dorsal
aspect.
Dime size pain, not one pin point locations, so

will needle a few needles to cover a dime size
around the third toe on the RIGHT.
Now the pain is more on the palmer side.
Fingers mirror the toe
Now treat the dorsal side of the finger so
needle the ventral side of the toe. 2 needles
there
Case 6. R.N , heavey sensation
behind the left eyeball
Step 1: ST, SJ, SI are sick
Step2: KI, LR, SP (tip: covering all three
yin channels of the leg will cover all 12
channels!)
The knee images the eye, eyeball.
KI 9A, LR8A, Dr. Tan’s LR point (medial
condyle by the knee), Needle more LR
ashi points around the knee
Case 5: S.B. Neck pain

SI5, SI4 for UB neck pain
Wrist images the neck
Still have pain, more on the vertebrae
Needle the scalp, C2 area on the scalp.
Look for exact ashi point. 3 needles
here.
Now 60% better.Add 4 more needles.
Now 40% more improved
Case 8: M.M. Medial border of
left shoulder blade pain on the
left
Chong zi, chong xian, palmer side of
the thumb right on the muscles
Pain moved lower
Lower so needle towards the wrist
more, palpate for ashi, same line as
chong zi and chong xian
Pain reduced
Case 10: M.L

fell from a chair, sacroiliac pain, S1,S2
pain, radiates along the lateral side to
the ankle and little and big toe. Leg is
cold
Mater Tung’s point. Use lingku, da bai,
zhong bai, SI4
Balance method: LU5 to LU8 (4
needles, spead out evenly)
Medial knee pain, a little deep,
pain area covering the sp and lr
Step: SP, LR
Step 2: LU,
Knee images the elbow
Step 3: LU channel and PC channel
