what is the sinew treatment protocol
- activate the yang at DU 4 & DU 14 (moxa, tui na, massage…etc.)
- ashi reducing technique
- jing well
- add a meeting point into the tx if there are multiple sinews involved (in this case, this would be the first step in the protocol)
- all reducing
- ~ 25 minutes or as little as no retention depending on the case
how would we tonify an underlying deficiency of the kidney yang
KD 3 then KD 7 (KD 9); can moxa
REDUCE
~25 min with little to no retention
how would we tonify an underlying deficiency of stomach qi (not producing fluids)
ST 42 then ST 36
REDUCE
~25 min with little to no retention
how would we tonify an underlying deficiency of liver qi with stagnation/depression
LV 3 then LV 14
REDUCE
~25 min with little to no retention
how would we tonify an underlying deficiency of lung qi (not dispersing)
LU 9 then LU 7
REDUCE
~25 min with little to no retention
