How to treat kidney, urination and hair loss disorders with acupuncture in this free chinese medicine video lesson from our alternative cure expert.
Sarah and Sig Hauer recently returned to the southwest after selling their practice in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. They were voted "Best Acupuncture Physicians" by their community in 2002 and 2003.
SARAH HAUER: Hi. I'm Sarah Hauer. SIG HAUER: And I'm Sig Hauer and we're professional practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine. SARAH HAUER: We're here on behalf of Expert Village. SIG HAUER: And welcome to our video. Sarah has just been measuring, just used a shortcut because the PSIS, which is the back of the pelvis, there the pelvic bone, lines up right with lumbar 3, and where she's needling now is at lumbar 2. That's bladder 23 as the points that she's putting in, and those are the back shu points of the kidney. SARAH HAUER: These are 1-1/2 tsun. A tsun is a measurement in Chinese medicine that's about a centimeter, less than an inch. That's 1-1/2 tsun, this point, from the lower spinous process of lumbar vertebra 2. SIG HAUER: So, bladder 23 is a very powerful point for helping to tonify the kidney, anything to do at the low back, urination, even memory, hair loss, knee problems, things like that, the kidney is involved with all of those things. And I think we've talked about how the kidney also is kinda like the pilot light for the digestion as well. The kidney is the pilot light, the spleen's the burner and then the stomach is the cooking pot. That's how we look at the digestion as a simple way of putting it.
