Cupping tutorial for Angela/new acupuncturists

Welcome

Hopefully this answers some of your questions.
Unapologetically feminist as the entire training till now has not been – this is about balance.

YUM????

Taking out the cold .  .

Here is something I did up for the Arvigo people (CLICK) as Lisa Kelly let loose with a  YouTube ‘how to’ and I figured the ‘how’ (from an apprentice) is not all that is needed  – WHY is more to the point – please let me know if you have any questions . .
As this took me 4 decades to perfect, I am interested in what this DOES not cover for you. . so I can add it in.

Angela and a few others dropping in 

Q and A on advanced usages of cup on navel – past seeing a video

Times are approximate – take about 50 seconds off all as I did this up on the actual not what is now on Vimeo

Originates from the elder’s ways in China.

  • 13.30 – Who this is for – those who can think, and intend to take responsibility – this WOMEN’S WAYS.
  • 14.15 – Dr VB was GM ‘s master – and he  chose to go with male, biomedical, current fads PCR China as it is easy to teach, and appears to work – when not in mastership classes an apprenticing people to be able to work well in a real life clinic.
  • 15 – NO COLD to go in – old wives’ tales (we live in women’s bodies which are very different to men’s).
  • 15.40 – have to rescue the YANG (functions of Yang are??)
  • 16 – Move their Qi – and add no more cold in.
  • 16.25 – my earlier life in IVF ‘support’ – HAVE to follow nature, not teh male business model. All embryos were put in tubes, in theatre and all my previously cleared of cold women got really COLD and you can’t grow a bub in a fridge – has to be an oven.
  • 17.30 – Do not play around – FIX – then they will feel amazing – not tinker with symptoms – undo why they are there. Tongue HAS to improve. Start with the basics – and here is an explanation CLICK).
  • 18.30 – really have to reorganise your thinking – Declutter – take not what id stopping the body heal itself. Shock, cold, scars. TRIAGE – not ‘diagnosis’.
  • 19 – Tongue – first change – it WILL get moister – and if they re really dehydrated they will drink a lot – make sure is tepid – with straw. Lymph is working – profound shifts. Cracks – will improve – often whilst this is happening.

  • 21.40 – my progression on this.
    22.35 – needed to rescue the Yang Qi.
  • 22.50 – salt in tissue – not in navel – I initially did – as insulation – so the moxa did not burn them – BUT salt in navel can get too hot – and is messy – use WARMED salt and in a tissue – then concern yourself with an ‘inney’ or an ‘outey’ – the latter need further insulation.

    Do they need to go to loo? As this can happen (warm) while you are burning first moxa – ideal time to interval.
