Case Study A

Eddie (real name) has neck pain for 2 months. Tried pain killers and acupuncture, but the recovery progress is slow.


During the class, I suggested to do a kwa sa using 3 oil (Lavendula vera oil, Peppermint oil and Majoram oil) with cream. Applied slow and gentle stroke using a kwa sa plate. Thereafter, I suggested Moxibustion on his kidney meridians.

Within 2 days his neck shoulder pain recovers. Sometimes if you can identify the root cause, you will see that recovery is faster.
Bryan's Philosophy.
1) Dampness is trapped in Eddie's body for weeks due to stress and late night showers before sleep. His body has heatiness of weakness, whereby normal massage and taking of herbal soups will not be of much help.
2) Tiredness of body unable dampness to be dispel
Solutions:
1) The 3 oil goes deep to the vessel to dispel negative qi and dampness.
2) Kwa sa helps to expel the toxic.
3) 3 oil will further release pain and anti inflammations.
4) Moxibustion of the kidney meridians will help to warm up the body.

East Meet West Natural Therapy Class includes moxibustion, fire cupping and kwa sa. A class of one lesson will help you to improve your health. Those who attended will have exemption for certificate in Professional Kwa Sa provided by Bryan soon.

Moxibustion:

How does moxibustion works in terms of modern science? A simple illustration is, meridians are like optical fibers that transmit infrared radiation.

Fudan University conducted an experiment on meridians and found the following: A high transparency (76 percent) at a wavelength of 2.66 microns has been measured along the axis direction of the collagenous fiber at the Gallbladder meridian on one lower limb in a human body. Along the fiber axis of the Stomach meridian, the transparency is 62 percent at wavelengths of 9-20 microns. The transparency vertical to the axis is 0.4 percent.

There is a difference in transparency of more than 240 times between infrared light along the axis and infrared light vertical to the axis of the meridians.

The most interesting thing I have found out about moxibustion is, although it uses heat, it cools down the problem area. As such the healing mechanism of moxibustion is the same as needle acupuncture. It is through "Qi" where moxibustion does the work, not the direct incoherent heat which we tends to associate with burning.
ONE LESSON LEARN SO MUCH? YES
