TUNG INTRO

In 2007, I graduated from acupuncture school, and needed a break. I started a non-profit, and went volunteering f

I volunteered in India, Vietnam, Honduras, Guatemala, and in America.

•I failed miserably the first two years in acupuncture practice. It was spectacular!

• Plastic surgeon, detox center, MD, allergist clinic, nurse practitioner, bio identical, spa, wellness center,

solo practice, house calls, group, volunteer, working hourly, ER hospital, herbal house call van deal, old

overseas volunteer trips.

In my clinic, I see 100 people a week on my own, each patient individually, no group treatments, no assembly line a

25-30 people a day, and I work Mon-Thursday, 3 tx rooms. My wife runs the front office, I do all the herbs, treating

cleaning, laundry, make herbs, ordering of supplies and materials. We have only been open since 2010 March. We

the first week. I DIDN’T KNOW ANYBODY IN MY AREA! It was a small town, 12,000 people mostly of fisherman/far

workers, no acupuncture ever in the town

YOU CAN DO ACUPUCTURE ANYWHERE! Quit thinking in terms of “do people like acupuncture here or there?”

“are there sick people here? Is so? I provide medicine and I can be of service! It just so “happens” that you do

herbs.

Why am I here talking? Because I'm a novice. Because I'm new. Because I don’t know that much. If I can do thi

I’M NOT SPECIAL!

TUNG INTRO

• I have been taught Tung Acupuncture by Wei Chi Young and I havtaught the Balance Method acupuncture by Dr. Richard Tan. To teverything I have learned.

• I had the chance to “practice” all these points overseas, doing vowork, treating 100 patients a day. Volunteering is important. It ato treat for free thus it allows you to treat without fear. It allows

experiment without worrying about booking the next appt. You ctry, retry, rethink, and all the time you’re helping others. People months, you can see the evolution of your treatments…what is wWhat is not working? Why not? Why is it?

• Treat as much as you can, you will get better with experi

The biggest reason people don’t succeed is becaudon’t expose themselves to the existing informatioRhome

• I'm just Brad. I have no magic needle, no golden touch, I have nprivileged information or powerful potions. If I can do it, anybo

Step by step, needle by needle, and patient by patient. We leainformation is available to everybody. There are no secrets!

You just need to PRACTICE and CRITICALLY think

6/27

TUNG BASICS

• Ill cover Tung theory as we talk.

• Its impossible to cover it all in 1 hour, let along 4 days a normal length Tung

• And ill explain the theory, I have many ways to discuss theory this is only oneMaster Tung theory is deep and rich. Lets keep it simple shall we?

• And like gravity, it works…regardless if you “get it or you don’t”. These pointsame, they work! THERES NO MAGIC! They work better if you know why, bwife who knows nothing of acupuncture could be super successful if I told hpoints to do and she had no idea why.

• But one MAIN CONCEPT? Don’t try to be “Dr. Jesus”. See Dao Ma Concept


7/27

TUNG BASICS

• “The Dao Ma Needling Technique of Master Tung Ching-Chang was one of the clinic

most frequently employed. This technique can succinctly be stated as follows: threeneedled simultaneously to profoundly 'obtain qi' (De Qi ) and rapidly effect a cure. Dgreatly concern himself with 'supplementing' (Bu) or 'draining' ( Xie) needle techniquwith powerfully 'obtaining qi' (De Qi ) to influence the 'Reaction Areas' of the points this style of acupuncture, the more you obtain the qi, the faster your results will be

• 3 Depths of needling of every point (dr. wei chi young)

TUNG POINTS

• Gu Ci Yi Er San

• Gu Ci San Bone Spur Three Same as Gu Ci Yi

• Gu Ci Yi Bone Spur One

• Bone spurs, pain of the vertebrae, traumatic injury of the vertebrae

• LI12 is first point, then 2 cun proximal, 2 cun more proximal• CLINICAL APPLICATION

• I would suggest clinically these points work better than Ling gu for low back pain. Tamazing and they are less painful for western patients. 3 points in a row treat the ulower part of the spine. Where at Ling gu is one point and only treat low back pain. suggest I use these points 70% of time and ling gu 30% of time. They are just that g

13/27

TUNG POINTS

•

77.01-2-3 and at time 77.04CLINICAL APPLICATION

These are YOUR GOTO POINTS for neck pain, on the bone, cervical issues C1-7/T1. If you add in

then we are treating to around T4 zone. On the spine, DU, and BL channel. And KD channel if you

understand the Jing Jin channels.

I frequently will use 77.-01-2-3-4 with ren 24 for neck pain.

These points can be and are used for low back pain, the image and channel and for brain problem b

of the reaction. I love this points for all the conditions. They are powerful, effective and NOT painf

can needle this points on people face up or face down. The key to these points IS THAT YOU MUS

THE BONE to make these points effective. Needle thru the tendon to the bone. That is key.

TUNG POINTS

77.26Qi Hu,Seven TigersReaction areas: Chest, bones

Pain of the scapula, inflammation of the clavicle, swollen and painful ribs and pleurisy.

One and a half cun posterior to the lateral malleolus. 2 cun up, +2 +2

CLINICAL APPLICATION

These are some of the ONLY points that are truly indicated for GB21 pain. Interesting to note that

these points are on the BL channel. How can they treat GB21 pain? See, Master Tung was aware of

the Jing jin and and tendino muscular relationships. These say that the traps are NOT the GB, but

in actuality the BL. Here master tung point for Trap pain are on the BL channel.

The other clincal application is for diagram, chest breathing issues. The reaction are is the chest

and these points do a lot for breathing, chest constriction tightness.

When we think pain in the upper back? 77.26 should one of the first point groups that comes to our

mind.
