Possible problems with Heart function
51
What do Yang Positive Reactions (Y+) indicate?
That a point in the ear is "live" or that a particular condition is or was occuring in the body They act as "Flags" both for diagnosis & for choosing points for treatment
52
What are the 2 basic techniques for needling ear points?
Simple insertion Twisting insertion Depth = 1-4 mm, 0.5" needle Quick insertion with EXHALE
53
How many needles shouldyou use in the ear?
