Acupuncture - alternative to the needles

Classically, the pathologic points of the pavilion auricular - and the interior dysfunctions that your alteration denotes - they are by means of the insertion of needles of Acupuncture and, in some cases of extraordinary sensibility to the needles, by means of the employment of laser. But for two years it exists a more economic alternative that the laser and that specially sensitive people can use to the needles.

And in fact to speak of this third possibility we contacted Vicente Bagué, graduated in Traditional Medicine China and professor of the Higher Institute of Traditional Medicine of Barcelona that, also, ready your knowledge to a company from Barcelona that have developed a device reequilibrador of the biologically enabled points described by the Traditional Medicine China and for Auricular medicine. We speak of the prototype Protark BAP Harmonizer - that call this way you - and that you are about a recovered plain metallic pointer of plastic whose appearance resembles each other to a marker of those that are used for the underlined of texts.

-Do we have understood that Harmonizer acts on the points of the altered ear, but, how are these detected?
-The procedures that allow to detect the pathologic points on the pavilion auricular are varied. For example, the point is easily detectable as long as you don't behave as those that he/she have around.
And you are that during the pathologic processes he/she always shows up modifications neurovegetatives, physiologic or physical. In short, the case is that the reflective points of the pavilion auricular can be detected in different ways. In the first place, observing if in the ear there is some scaled field and you dry up: you happen this way in some cases of long-term illnesses or chronic. In second place, pressing the different fields of the ear to see if some concrete point hurts and in what measure. If you happen this way reflective the existence of a problem in the related organ. In third, using determined apparatuses that detect the electric reactivity of the points that, when they are altered, they vary your electric normal parameters. And, in room, by means of the alterations that can be perceived when registering the call stand-alone vascular signal.

-How is Harmonizer built?
-I should begin saying that all the elements that compose it were selected, designed and calculated so that they generate a current galvanic ultradébil that act as signal carrier of the pattern of frequencies that the same ones emit. This emitted signal has properties armonizadoras of the biophysical processes and you behave in way actual reequilibrando the points and fields biologically enabled auricular that are altered.

-And how are you used?
-In a very plain way. Once found the pathologic points to try in the pavilion headphone, the therapist - this device is designed so that experienced people and experts of the underlying technique use it - Harmonizer arranges to scarce millimeters of the skin on the altered point and you make small drafts toward the right on him between 30 seconds and one minute. And I will add that although the direct action is exercised on that certain point of the ear, in fact what are being is the interior area with which that point is related.

-And in what type of illnesses has your utility been demonstrated?
-Your effectiveness has been verified mainly in the treatment of functional dysfunctions as the digestive ones and the intestinal ones and in cases of stress, insomnia, anxiety, migraines and neuralgias as well as of muscle aches and articular.

-How many sessions are they necessary to complete a treatment?
-Habitually they are enough with 6 to obtain a good and durable, when not definitive result. Although from the first session it is already perceived improvement of the ailment.
Now then, when they are pains localized in the muscle-skeletal system you suit that the therapist reinforces the action of Auriculoterapia directly by means of the application of the device on the affected field or in the painful points that the patient indicates specifically. In that case you proceeds exactly same: once localised the most painful point to the pressure fair Harmonizer is arranged above, without playing the skin, and you are made turn around that point. That yes, in this case it will be made during between 1 and 3 minutes.

You differ between acupuncture and auricular teraphy

And what does Auricular teraphy of the traditional Acupuncture differ?
Because that in the conventional Chinese acupuncture the biologically enabled points are always detectables, independently of the scanned fellow's health status, while the points of acupuncture headphone are only it in illness status.
That is to say, only when an anatomic or functional structure of the organism aborts your physiologic balance some sensitive points they appear in the ear to the pressure that, at the same time, they manifest an alteration in your electric parameters.

In fact the fact that the points auricular only exist in status of pathologic alteration you facilitate that they cannot only be used with a therapeutical intention but also diagnostic sometimes allowing to clarify difficult cases in those that a dark and not very definable symptomatology exists. And if you are certain that "a good diagnostic is half of a cure" you are not room for doubt that auricular teraphy is an alternative that we will keep in mind.

Diagnostic auricular
As we said, when you exist an alteration or pathologic dysfunction in any part of the organism you take place in your corresponding point in the pavilion headphone a change as for sensibility and electric features. Because all organ is reflected in the ear.
The point becomes then painful to the palpation and the pressure and an alteration of your electric conductivity takes place being observed an increase or decrease of your potential regarding the fields located around the same one.
This allows a localization easy of the altered point and to be able to treat him mediating stimuli that correct the pathologic information thanks to the reflective established system from the ear until to the nervous central system and of this toward all the fields of the organism.

Acupuncture - On what is the auricular teraphy based?

The same as the conventional Chinese Acupuncture, auricular teraphy is based on the existence of the physiologic start of the reflection, that is to say, of an ordered answer of the organism to an external pulse or I confine that are processed by the nervous central system.

Because well, in the ear - like in the foot - reflective points that are related with each field, organ, system, apparatus, viscera, etc exist., of the body. And only when a corporal field aborts your physiologic balance they can be detected in the ear points and biologically enabled altered fields that are denoting a dysfunction in the organism. Once detected, what are made is to stimulate them for diverse means - massages, needles, electric, laser currents, etc. With that stimulation, and by means of reflective complicated mechanisms, you are possible to modify and to correct the dysfunctions observed in the organism.

How to cure illnesses with acupuncture auricular teraphy?

The Acupuncture auricular teraphy is a therapeutical method and diagnostic that it are based in the existence in the pavilion auricular of some points and biologically enabled fields that are only detected when some dysfunction exists in the organism and whose stimulation an effect that are translated in the improvement or disappearance of the nuisances that you/they suffer the diseased person takes place. You happen this way in cases of functional digestive and intestinal dysfunctions, stress, insomnia, anxiety, migraines and neuralgias as well as muscle aches and articulares. And thanks to a stimulative new apparatus you can already be able to make it without nailing needles and without the costs of a laser.

"The Acupuncture auricular teraphy is, at the same time, as a control panel where the alterations of the organism and a command board are appreciated where, pressing on determined keys, certain alterations" can be corrected. You define this way this discipline the book "The challenge of Auriculoterapia. The man reflected in your ear" written by the physician Victorino Martínez Figuereo.
You are about a technical reflexoteraphy of western origin that date of about 50 years ago and that you were structured, coded and setting to point for the French physician Paul Nogier. With her excellent results are obtaining in the treatment of multiple pathologies.

Mental health

"state of the emotional and psychological well-being in which an individual can use your capacities cognitivas and emotional, to work in society, and to solve the ordinary demands of the daily" life.
In general, most of experts suits that the mental health and the mental illnesses are not contrary. In another words, the absence of a mental grateful dysfunction, is not necessarily an indicator of having mental health.

Some data:
Day by day surveys and studios are formulated on the population's sufferings and as well as you have been increased with the time. Next we rescue some that we found important of highlighting:
*One of each four people suffers a mental illness throughout your life. In the great majority of cases, you will overcome it and in other, although the illness lasts, the patient, with the help of relatives, friendships and professionals, will be able to confront your status. It can also be a long and painful process, not only for the graveness of your pathology, but for the negative image that the society possesses of people with mental illness. Great part of the suffering that these people suffer has your origin in the rejection, the marginación and the social scorn that have to support, and not in the illness in itself.

*More than 20 million Europeans they suffer depression. In Spain, according to the Book Blanco of the depression, the number of having affected could be of six millions, and the half would be without diagnosing. Your treatment supposes an annual cost in Europe of 120.000 million euros, while in Spain the 23.000 million euros are reached. All these data are picked up in the report of the economic repercussion of the affective dysfunctions on the public health costs that he/she have shown up in Madrid Patrick Sobocki, professor of Economy of the Health of the School of Economy of Stockholm (Sweden).

Teraphy and health

We define the health like the balance of the being's plans, being the body only physical place to manifest the symptoms of the remainder of the bodies, for ende the illness is a desarmonía that cause an effect in the manifestation vehicle.
When the illness symptom arrives you are because already you insataló the desiquilibrio in the remainder of the plans. Hence we say that the illness is an effect of some cause generated in the unbalance and that you become circle that feed of other symptoms.
You are necessary to know that all illness brings I get an intensión of taking to the reflection and if alone we are in charge of of solving the symptoms we get lost the opportunity to know because we feel or we suffer that unbalance.
Of course the first step before the illness is to identify the symptom and to solve it clinically using the medical science adapted alleviating the pain to arrive to the interior analysis then.
The reflexología gives us the possibility to go equalizing those plans to alleviate the symptoms or to prevent in the event of not having them.
On time the reflexología uses the reflective points that are basically in the plants of the feet, there we can be a perfect map of our body encontrándo each organ, each vertebra, each organic feature and also energetics.

The same thing you can locate in the hands. You happen that you are used but the feet to have bigger sensibility.
In the remainder of the body there are also reflections of other parts I eat the ears for example, the muscles belong together with some organs etc.
In my particular case I work the body mainly. I massage the reflective points of the feet and then I massage the whole body and your energy centers, descontracturando unlocking each part, helping the being to relax himself of your emotional, mental jams and physiques.

Hence the duration of a session is of 1 hour using different elements like vibrant machine, wooden roller, aromas with escencias, creams, music, etc. creating an environment of deep serenity and still where each one can feel fully gratified.

Knowing that when being very according with oneself and in balance your environment will also vibrate with that same sensation.
The reflexología works with a general purpose law that are the match that he/she say Like up it is below, I eat below you are up" Kibalion. This start is of general purpose application in all the plans, mental, material or spiritual of the cosmos that is to say that are completed from a cell until a solar system. Everything has your match.
In reflexología we are not only in charge of of applying the technique but of investigating the causes for which the illness takes place:
In general there are two big causes that derive in symptoms, one you are the ullage of vital energy or I lock of the same one and another is the chemical part that are the one that produce the toxic effect of our organism.
You are several factors that produce the intoxication fundamentally the power supply, the effect of the smog of the big cities and the great quantity of toxics that we ingest in form of cigarettes, drinks, remedies, etc.
Hence the current therapies make a great emphasis in the diets, in start to achieve the desintoxicación and then to correct alimentary habits and this way to ingest the correct foods.
As each one it is this way an unique being and irrepetible each treatment and each diet should be only. You are indispensable to have conscience of the importance of not modifying the diets neither the medicines, of attending the individual like a being I integrate with all that involve that and this way to adapt you the diet to your schedules of work to your work type to your contextura physique-energetics to your antecedents to your environment, etc.
You are important to understand that all that go by our sensorial centers is energy, likewise what go by our mind, our emotions, feelings and spirit all that surround us external and internally it feeds us or we ingest it somehow. Depending on the quality of each thing will be the benefit or the grade of damage that it cause us.
Of this concept they are nurtured the integral sense of the complementary therapies, in to keep in mind and to treat all the aspects of possible well-being, hence the importance of taking care of what we smell, sees, we hear, we think, we feel, we say, we like, we play and I eat we surround ourselves, we move. So we use to improve and to support the treatment the plug-ins that well-being like being contribute us the aromas, the music, the colors, the readout, the mental dynamics, the autoconocimiento, the massages, the energy work, the yoga, Thai chi, also Bach's flowers and the fitoteraphy.

When a status of family stress is perceived, for example, mental changes and physiques take place as alarm signals that they prepare us to respond. This way, status of different nature like fights, escapes or paralyzation loosen.

The adolescents experience more stress when they perceive a status like dangerous, difficult or painful and they don't know the resources with those that can approach it.

The main stress reasons in the youths are: the excessive demands, the negative pansies, the body changes, problems with your friends, the fact of living in a not very sure neighborhood, the separation of your parents (nowadays very habitual), frequent fights among your parents, the death of a to be wanted, to move or to be changed school, to develop too many activities, to have very high expectations regarding itself and of your acting, and the economic or financial problems that can happen in your family.

The impact will depend on the personality of the adolescent one and also in your way of solving the different status.

The parents, undoubtedly they can help them in these cases in the following ways:
- monitoreando the own stress.

However, although the indent is minimum, the sensation is always the same one: to lose a lot of volume of blood. Hence, those affected appeal to the old techniques that demonstrated to be ineffective to other more contemporary ones that neither are useful and that many times, they can carry damages in the nasal graves.

In the antiquity, the physicians gave fundamental importance of the blood loss for the nose and they considered it the prelude of acute fevers or as a fatal prognosis in some chronic illnesses.

At the present time, the nasal sporadic haemorrhage as consequence of a sneeze, you are not had very in account by the person that suffer it and the percent of visits to the clinic for this reason is minimum.

Contrary to other lesions where the symptoms are extremely identifiable, the nasal indent appears like an unexpected visit, being very frequent in the childhood and in the third age.

Habitually he/she appears in a sudden way without warnings. Nevertheless, you are medical circumstances that can end in a nasal haemorrhage in the one that, due to your duration, the favorable environment is believed to generate a series of symptoms that otherwise would exist: vehement thirst, vertigos, buzzes of hearings and quick pulse. All these instances are you deign at the present time, of a medical query, as well as if you are developed during the menstrual period, to consult the most convenient technique to use; or to know, according to the organism of each one, what medicines they are the appropriate ones in these cases, stiller if the person that suffer it is allergic, among other.

- Intranasal foreign bodies. This is very common in the first childhood due to the input of bellboys, seeds, cotton pieces, small elements, etc., that they hurt the blood vessels.

In these cases the watchword is to stop the blood. The best thing to make in these cases, is to arrange in the nasal holes a gauze plug absorbed in some oleaginous substance, I eat the vaseline for example, the plug should be left between 48 and 72 hours. In occasions this haemorrhage class stops they are necessity to arrange these cottons, but arranging something cold in the person's nape.

Now then, the general causes are:

- Hormonal dysfunctions. Some women show up this box during your menstrual period because an intense modification is generated that affect the blood vessels.
- Arterial hypertension. To be about a wired problem with the arteries in a direct way, you are very frequent your appearance.
- He/she can also appear with the infectious illnesses as the sinusitis, clotting disorders and other.

In these cases, the most appropriate treatment form is the one of locating the bleeding point, to tie the vessels of average size or to cauterize them if the above-mentioned is not possible. Sometimes, the haemorrhage doesn't stop with the simple application of the first helps and it can be appealed to blood transfusions and specific health care to equalize the blood loss.

Of course that in the case of some illnesses, the haemorrhage is a symptom or a consequence of that, and although the urgency is to stop the sanguine throughput, the treatment of the affection is not suspended. In occasions, the used medicines can show up nasal indent as an adverse effect.

First helps in the event of nasal indent

The oral broadcast, you have generated many confusions about the alcoholatura cares before a nasal blood loss. Of course, the quality of the haemorrhage and the readiness of the sanitary material will favor the practice of the first helps.

1- Sound the nose with a paper handkerchief to clean the clots (you avoid to swallow you the blood inspiring deeply for the nose).
2- Then, place you a small cotton portion absorbed in hydrogen water of 10 volumes of medicinal use.
3- For any reason it takes the head back. If you are in the bed, feel. To sleep, you incline your head toward a side.
4- Not take aspirins.
5- Neither ingest pain relievers because they can alter the process of clotting.
6- Lastly, if the haemorrhage doesn't stop neither with the compression of the cotton or lapsed gauze a prudential time since you began, you appeal with urgency to the physician.

More than a penis it would undertake the retreat if you knew that when franking that mysterious vagina to which lean out, it will navigate among 12 million microbes for square centimeter! The fémina would also adjoin your legs if they announced you that the masculine member gathers between 17 and 20 million microbes and that your torrential ejaculation will flood it with 300.000 million microbes for seminal download...

In fact, although our immune system was in full abilities, our body is able to ignore a battalion of germs, and even non ucumbir before having determined virus, bacteria and mushrooms, three fronts that yes they can propitiate the infection and whose illnesses are susceptible of being transmitted with more easiness in couple. Until the most aseptic human he/she has the surface of your body, as well as the external holes and even the own alimentary tract, populated by microorganisms that form a protection (intestinal or vaginal, for example) flora that you/they preserve of noxious germs in occasions.

To be excessively scrupulous with the tools of eating, to register the exclusivity of bathrobes, slippers or in the sexual relationships, you don't avoid the infection of a light infection that could only avoid living in a glass capsule.

That that yes you are within our reach you are to minimize in couple the alluvium of germs and to prevent that these move and live to your wide ones with relative easiness. An alcoholatura hygiene, only using soap in feet, arm pits and genital, coarse to maintain the volume of germs to skin flower in the borders of the normality.

For it, you are necessary that the objects of quotidian use are only low control with maintaining them clean, and mainly dry, since the prolonged dampness is a nest of germs and of sure transmission.

Now then, when the couple's member suffers an infection, you are convenient to put an end alintercambio to avoid an infection. That will mean, to be about abstaining sexually, as well as to diminish kisses, and of course, to reserve the individual use of the daily tools.

Light infections that we can be contagious

To be scrupulous with the tools of eating or with those of toilet, you don't liberate us of the transmnitirnos possibility some illness, although you are not serious.

You Seize ("Influenza"): Virus of easy transmission for work of Pflüge or drops of fluids that we dislodge when speaking. You are contagious so much direct (for contact), as indirectly (sharing an object). As any virus, you are not treated with medicines, but rather you should follow your natural own process. You have the particularity that the virus every year mute and you don't leave more option than to wait while one tries to palliate the nuisance of your effects, I eat for example, fever, cough, general uneasiness, vomits, diarrhea, among other.

Common cold or cold: You are contagious with the same velocity and procedure that the flu, previously mentioned. This virus, however, slamente cough, stoppered naríz behaves and I shed tears, often, d even or integral euna coincides in both members d a family.

Skin infections: The mushrooms (mycosis), sion easy to infect, but very selective, since each one needs a certain skin type. The athletes foot affects to the feet, while versicolor" "Pitiriasis is bounded to the torso, generally in the shoulder and in the neckline. Your reign is beaches, pools, saunas and all the objects that surround you. You tint it crural you decant for English, where in summer, heat, close contact and dampness of the swimsuits mojedos converge. The herpes simplex, (so much genital oral ocmo) don't need direct contact, although with the suitable measures you can prevent the infection.

Acarids: Mange ("Sarcoptes scabier") and lice ("Pediculus) type "capitis", in the head, pubis ("Ladillas"), or "Corporis" in the clothes. They are tremendously contagious and you are not preservative that sirrva to reduce risks.

Conjunctivitis: It can be viral or bacterial. You produce lacrimation and sleep, but you require the direct contact for your infection. The bacterial one stops with collyrium, while that of viral origin should follow your path.

Acarids

An acarid is that alive being that live and you are nurtured to another alive being's expenses without contributing any benefit to this I finish. This alive other being, receives the hospedador (sometimes, in confused way, guest) name to expenses from which the acarid is nurtured, being able to take place in some cases damage or injuries.

Definition
In a precise definition, we can summarize that you are metabolically a relationship simbiótica anisoespecífica (among different species) in which the acarid is dependent of your hospedador and you are not beneficial for this. Nevertheless, from an ecologic point of view, the definition of the term can be expanded considerably.

Although parasitism usually involves a relationship trófica, the acarid he/she can also obtain other benefits of your hospedador like protection in front of predators or competitors. Also, they can benefit of parental cares. The reproductive acarids, as some African fish winch of the family synodontidae, make that other fish ciclidos that habitually incubate your eggs in the mouth, also protect the petty fish winch next to your own breedings. These fish, although they don't feed the breedings of the sinodontidos, they protect them and they defend in front of other fish.

Also, it can be said that a hospedador doesn't always nurture to the copy that the parásita, it can also nurture your eggs or breedings. This way, the most important relationship cannot be trófica, although these cases are enough isolated.

Lastly, you are important to say that the acarids usually cause always some nuisance value to your hospedador in general ledger or pettier grade, although you are sometimes impossible to discern the parasitism of the comensalismo and they don't lack examples of parásitismos that can produce to have some positive effect on the hospedador in spite of being pathogen clear agents. You are believed that in this relationship it can evolve, throughout many generations of acarids and hospedadores, toward a mutually beneficial (mutualismo) symbiosis.

Classification
Microparasitos and Macroparasitos Exist. The first are petty and extremely numerous. They multiply inside the guest and in general they make it inside the guest's cells, therefore they are related with the metabolism and they cause reactions on the part of the antibodies. Macroparasitos grows, but they don't multiply inside the guest. They produce infectious phases that leave outside of the guest, to affect others. They live inside the body or in the cavities of the affected one for the acarids and in general, it can be considered the I number of existing macroparasitos in the affected organism. The parasitism involves a relationship trofica with your guest (obtaining of nutritious) but it can also involve other relationships as you are it that of protection on the part of this I finish.

Types of acarids
Many types of acarids exist. Among them they are:

* The viruses
* The bacteria
* The mushrooms
* The plants
* The protozoa
* The helminths
* The arthropods
* The algae

Attending the place occupied in the body of the hospedador, the acarids can be classified in:

* ectoacarids: They live in contact with the exterior of your hospedador (for example the flea)
* endoacarids: They live inside the body of your hospedador (for example a taenia or a trichina)
* mesoacarids: They possess a part of your body looking toward the exterior and another anchored deeply in the tissues of your hospedador. In some extreme cases of mesoacarids of fish (copepods pennellidae), they can have the head inserted in the heart of your hospedador and to extend for the arteries until the gills, or to perforate the visceral cavity.

Parasitology
The science that he study the acarids is the parasitología, as well as the biologic interaction between two species, acarid and hospedador, you are named parasitism. Since most of the microorganisms that produce infections are studied by the microbiology, the parasitología takes charge of studying exclusively to the acarids eukaryotes except the mushrooms. That is to say, so much the one-celled eukaryotes of the polifilético group Protozoa, as the pluricelulares (metazoos) that include to platelmintos, nematodes, arthropods, etc.

In occasions, you are díficil to differentiate the phenomenon of the parasitism of the comensalismo, the symbiosis, the foresis, or the pillaging, since the distinctions among these they vary from an author to another.

One of the features common of the parasitism is that you bear an exchange of substances that they cause in the hospedador an immunologic answer.

An inmunoevasión petition for the acarid is the one of forming antigens that resemble those of the guest (mimicry). Other, you are the one of sticking antigens from the hospedador to the extraneous surface of the body of the acarid (camouflage antigénico); Other, you are the petition of going constantly varying and quickly your surface (antigens) proteins so that the antibodies taken place by the guest cannot recognize it; the result is that the invaded hospedador doesn't recognize to the acarid like invasive or the answer that this takes place you are not completely actual.

Another feature of the parasitism is that although the acarid should adapt to the answer inmunitaria and, in general, to the parasitic life, the hospedador also debit side to make it. This is because the population parásita exercises a selective pressure in this, so guest and hospedador coevolucionan parallelly as a consequence of the parasitism. This explains, for example that the gene of the falciform anaemia is very frequent in endemic fields of malaria.

Almost all the important groups of animals possess some species parásitas. Some quite unexpected ones. For example besides the good known groups of acarids (monogéneos, digéneos, cestodes, nematodes, hirudíneos, copepods) among the acarids some species of barnacles can be included, clams, turbelarios, hidrozoos, birds like the cuckoo... and even some sharks.
