Transcript AK, Akupunktur und Antike Punkte
•
Goodheart has treated certain muscle weaknesses with the use of tonification points (= one of the command points)
•
Acupuncture system is one of the five factors of the intervetebral foramen (IVF)
•
Application of AK for checking the system of meridians and associated organs (Goodheart, Leaf, Walther, Gerz)
•
Description of the muscle - organ - meridian classifications from Goodheart
•
Relations with the associated sedation point on the same side of the body can be verified Example: Normotonic M. rectus femoris (SI - associated) is weakened through the sedation point SI 8 on the same side of the body

•
Sedation point = the most reliable method of sedation ( ICAK Conference in Monte Carlo 1996)
•
An internal disease pattern without a definite differentiation between hypertonic and normotonic muscles is unimaginable
•
The sedation point is only one of the five command points onto every meridian
•
Further command points offer more intense possibilities of sedation or tonification
•
Effective potential of all command points From 1997-2001 analysed with AK from Gerz, Eppler Tschiedl, Suntinger and Burtscher
•
Results: Book “ AK-Meridiantherapie (AKMT) synthesis of acupuncture teaching and Applied Kinesiology” (AKSE 2001)
•
AKMT courses belong to an obligatory curriculum of the IMAK
Combination of AK and command points short AKMT it permits detection of coherences between organs, meridian functions, focuses and structure
• • •
Diagnostic possibility Analysis of meridian- and organ systems Differentiation of focuses and intolerances Differentiation of the effectiveness of therapeutic substances
•
Therapeutic possibility Efficient acupuncture with 2 to 3 needles
Association of meridians to muscle testing gives an overview of the condition of the meridian:
•
An empty meridian correlates with one or more weak associated muscles in the AK-muscle testing
•
An exaggerated meridian correlates with one or more hypertonic associated muscles
•
A balanced meridian is associated with normotonic muscle testing of the correlating muscles ( Goodheart, Leaf, Walther, Gerz)
Identical AK results ( CH, TL)
Identical findings on several teeth
Evaluation?
Consequence?
Lots of incompatible nourishments
• •
Reduced compliance of the patient Development of counterproductive stress
Example for further differentiation: Indicator muscle hypertonic through nourishments / focus:
S edation point doesn’t weaken any more However more sedating points allow further differentiation Primary treatment of most irritating factor
Example for further differentiation: Weak indicator muscle through nourishment/ focus:
Tonification point strengthens/ does not strengthen
More tonifying points permit further differentiation Primary treatment of most irritating factor
Primarily evaluation of most possible findings

Best acupuncture point which negates all positive findings when challenged or therapy localized
Acupuncture will be successful
In most cases only 2 - 3 highly efficient acupuncture points
Reduction of needles being used
Good compliance
•
Element points are most commonly found
•
Only few acupuncture sessions (treatments) will be necessary (5 - 7x)
• •
Five points on each meridian are called command points Correlation of each point to an element with its given quality
•
Each meridian contains of one:
