ACUPUNCTURE
WITHOUT
NEEDLES
Description
Acupuncture is a major part of a 5,000 year-old oriental healing
tradition that is performed by inserting fine needles to
stimulate specific points on the surface of the body. In the
acupuncture
system of health care the presence of the needle, or other
stimulus, modifies energy flow in the body to assist the
natural process of healing from within. From ancient to modern
times, every known culture has used some form or variation of
acupuncture treatment.
There are two popular theories that explain how acupuncture
works:
1. Ancient theory – Some believe a current of life force
energy, called “chi” (pronounced “chee”), flows along specific
acupuncture pathways, called meridians. This energy is
different from nerve energy and it does not follow the nerve
system. Just like magnetic energy that can pass through a
solid object, this energy goes in, out and around the body to
all organs and tissues. To maintain health, it is said, chi
must be balanced and move freely. Acupuncture treatment is
used to increase, decrease or move the chi energy if it has
become stagnant, thus bringing balance to the vital energy
flow. By correcting an imbalance of chi, a healing response is
brought about.
2. Modern theory – The brain makes certain chemicals, called
endorphins and enkephalins, that are messengers to start the
process of healing and reduce pain. One of the many ways to
trigger an endorphin or enkephalin release is to insert an
acupuncture needle into an acupuncture point. The ancient
Chinese may have stumbled on a simple way to start a
complicated process they did not know even existed.
Which theory is correct? Perhaps both
-- in different ways.
Although accepted as a medical treatment in Asia for
millennia, acupuncture's arrival in the West has sparked
controversy until reasonable scientific explanations were
offered. With the discovery that acupuncture treatment causes
a release of brain messenger chemicals, the endorphins and
enkephalins, acupuncture became acceptable in many areas of
the medical community. In 1977 the National Institute of
Health (NIH) issued a consensus statement that concluded
“there is sufficient evidence of acupuncture's value to expand
its use into conventional medicine and to encourage further
studies of its physiology and clinical value.” Further, the
NIH statement noted “the data in support of acupuncture are as
strong as those for many accepted Western medical therapies,”
and added that “the incidence of adverse effects is
substantially lower than that of many drugs or other accepted
medical procedures used for the same condition.”
However, the acupuncture needle itself is just a tool used to
stimulate the body. It’s like pushing the button on a doorbell
– you can use your finger, a pencil or an umbrella. What is
used to make the bell ring is not important; the bell will ring regardless of how
the button is pushed. Even acupuncture benefits from
high technology, so that acupuncturists now use soft laser
beams, magnets and electricity to do what the needles do – and
sometimes better. Along this line of improving
acupuncture treatment technique, PDI
has found a recent medical break through by a Korean scientist who invented a
revolutionary non-invasive acupuncture point stimulator that
might make acupuncture needles obsolete.
This new
non-invasive acupuncture invention is a revolutionary point stimulator, called the Genesen
Acutouch, that was invented by Korean scientist and engineer, Chi Kyung Kim, in
1999. It uses a combination of 600-G focused magnets;
a pinpoint far infrared beam (between 6 and 14
micrometers) that is focused down the length of a hexagonal
barrel of the device; and a negative ion emitter
in a ceramic powder chamber. These three energy sources are
tuned to precisely merge at a gold-plated point of the
Acutouch device. The touch pointer of the device directs this
composite of natural energy into the body, stimulating the
body's inherent ability to regulate and heal itself. What
makes the Genesen Acutouch instrument so exciting is that
PDI
developed a way for a man with PD to use it for at-home care.
Acupuncture is not one thing. There are many styles of
acupuncture and many ways of stimulating acupuncture points.
Thus if you get treated by different acupuncturists you will
be treated in different ways. So long as the end result of
improved health is achieved, the acupuncture methods and
technique can be quite different. Thus, experience has shown
many times that a revolutionary
treatment device like the Genesen touch pointers can be used
by a layperson to effectively perform an acupuncture
treatment, without any of the problems and limitations of
traditional needles.
In China, and all parts of the East where acupuncture is the
primary method of health care, when acupuncture treatment is
provided in China and other parts of the Orient, it is done daily until the desired
changes in health are seen. In order for acupuncture treatment
to be most successful it is done frequently – often seven days
a week – until health is restored. To apply that same intense
and frequent treatment to PD would only be possible if it was
self-administered, otherwise the cost and inconvenience would
be beyond reason. This is where the Acutouch device
answers a need, since it is possible to use it safely and
frequently, on a daily basis in the comfort and privacy of
home use, whenever a convenient time
becomes available.
Acutouch Pointers
are Unique in a Critical Way
What is most important about the Acutouch device for both the
professional acupuncturist and the layperson who choose to use
them is this: This instrument has such a wide area of influence
or effectiveness within the galvanic energy field that it
creates, that it is difficult to make a mistake with
the Pointers. The effective treatment radius of the Acutouch Pointer tip
is in fact 25 mm (1 inch), for a total treating diameter of
50 mm (2 inches). This means that you do no have to be
absolutely accurate in locating the treatment point, and you
will in any event be guided to the exact point by your body’s
reaction to the energy of the Acutouch device (more about
Reaction Sensation in a later section, below). This wide area
of effect and reaction is in sharp contrast to the level of
accuracy required with a convention needle acupuncture treatment
in which the needle must be within 1 mm of the actual
treatment point for an effective response to occur.
This 2 inch range of treatment effectiveness of the Acutouch instrument
is what makes this such a perfect tool for the layperson to
use for at-home self treatment. Because it is not necessary to
be exactly on a treatment point with this instrument, you only
need to be fairly close to an actual acupuncture point for
it to
be stimulated effectively. To say it another way, the Acutouch
instrument is just made for at home care by a layperson
because it is so powerful and forgiving. That is why
PDI can
present this technique to you. It would be impossible to
arrange this kind of treatment with any other equipment that
is available.
Acutouch Pointers −
The Power of Acupuncture in your Hands
Acutouch Therapy is a revolutionary new approach to healing.
It empowers home users to take charge of their own health and
treatment on a very sophisticated acupuncture treatment level.
Acutouch Pointers used over acupuncture points is totally
safe, and will last a lifetime.
The Acutouch Pointer is a state-of-the-art magnetic
therapeutic device designed for:
-
Simple,
non-invasive, self-administered treatment, unique in that it
employs no artificial or external power source and there are
no batteries to replace.
-
Sustained healing
as well as natural, effective pain control.
-
Reliance purely on
an infinite supply of natural, atmospheric energy.
-
Providing the home
user with a compact, portable and convenient response to more
than
220 ailments, injuries and conditions.
-
Employing the
design of a six-sided hexagonal profile in a purpose-designed
tube, channeling energy gathered by a pair of patented
sympathetic lenses, or antennae, located at the top and center
of the Acutouch Pointer. These lenses or antennae, attract,
resonate, amplify and accelerate the natural energy available
in the atmosphere.
-
Enabling this
energy to flow down through the hexagonal tube to
energize the materials it contains, and to pass through the
gold tips (coated in 20 microns of 24K gold for optimum
hygiene, performance and response) into the body to a depth of
25mm (1 inch).
-
Having no moving
parts and that it will never wear out, or lose its efficiency
over time.
-
Manufactured to
ISO9002 standards, the product carries CE certification as a
Class 1 medical device.
The hexahedron
tube, containing two focal lenses, acts similarly to a radio
crystal set. Old-fashioned crystal radios resonated with the
frequency range of sound vibrations in the air and amplified
them. The hexahedron tube design, according to Mr. Kim, the
inventor, attracts and amplifies the frequency range of Qi and
strongly focuses this "fresh" undifferentiated energy through
the stimulator tip to the acupoint center. This system is
self-contained, portable, requires no power source, and never
runs down. These stimulators can be used singly or in pairs,
making them suitable for any type of polarity therapy.
Science
SYMPALENS Natural energy in the form of electromagnetic
waves are attracted and harnessed by the Acutouch twin touch
pointers, through the patented sympalens lens located at their
caps. These lenses are in effect micro antennae and the
hexagonal shape of their circuitry amplifies and accelerates
the flow of this energy through the pointers to a depth of
25mm (1 inch) below the surface of the skin.
The sympalens lens design was based on independent research
conducted by Japanese physicist, Prof. D. Taka. His work
confirmed the importance of the natural hexagonal shape in
capturing atmospheric waves within the electromagnetic
spectrum and amplifying their resonance through total internal
refraction. This natural energy is the sole power source
employed in the Acutouch pointers.
INFRA RED RAYS The use of bio-ceramics to emit
far-infrared rays was first used by NASA in the late 1960’s.
The far-infrared rays stimulate the water molecules in our
bodies to resonate in harmony, resulting in heat production.
Since water constitutes approximately 70% of human body mass,
the application of the Acutouch Pointers, which contain these
bio-ceramic materials, produces an inevitable warming
response. The resonance of these rays increases the
temperature of the deeper tissues beneath the skin, thereby
dilating capillaries, improving blood circulation, increasing
metabolism and revitalizing tissue damaged through trauma,
infection or other physiological stressors. Far-infrared
rays are also known to facilitate the production of various
enzymes, assist in the reduction of free fatty acids,
cholesterol and sodium and delay the ageing process of cells.
They also appear to have an anti-allergenic effect by
stabilizing mast cells within mitochondria, thereby
diminishing the release of histamine.
Thermal imaging equipment has recorded a 0.50 degrees C rise
in temperature at the site of application of the Acutouch
Pointers.
MAGNETISM
The United States’ FDA has accepted magnetic therapy as
effective in application to human physiology, and stated that magnets less than 800 gauss in
strength are safe for medical use. The Acutouch Pointers have
powerful magnets above their tips, which create a focused
magnetic field rated at 600 gauss at the point of contact with
the skin.
This magnetic field, penetrating 25mm (1 inch) below the skin,
helps to remove cellular waste from the blood vessels,
improves circulation and reduces cholesterol and other
toxin levels. No harmful electromagnetic waves are produced.
These magnets act through a scientific principle referred to
as “The Hall Effect”, which states that whenever a charged ion
passes through a magnetic field, its course is altered.
Calcium ions are particularly influenced and tend to be
deflected through the semi-permeable membrane of cells, into
the body of the cells. This alters the porosity of the
semimembrane, allowing nutrients to enter the cell and break down
products of metabolism to be excreted. (Discovery of
Magnetic Health, by G Washnis and R Hricak).
The alkaline environment produced in the extra-cellular fluid
by magnetic fields, in particular at the North Pole, has a
proven inhibitory effect on abnormal cellular mitosis. Endorphin
release under the influence of magnetic fields has similarly
been documented, and it is this mechanism that has been
postulated in the ability of the Acutouch Pointers to assist
pain control and reduce hypertension (American Journal of
Physiology, 1999).
ANIONS, OR NEGATIVE IONS
The Acutouch Pointers also contain natural anionic
materials, which produce a continuous flow of beneficial
negative ions, or anions. These anions influence the body’s capacity to
absorb and utilize oxygen. By now you fully recognize
just how important oxygen is to the treatment of PD. The normal balance of
anions and cations (positive ions) is disrupted by pollution,
hazardous electromagnetic waves, excessive exercise, sleep
deprivation or stress.
Anions accelerate the delivery of oxygen to the body’s
cells, thus producing clarity of thought and feeling
of well-being. Anions also minimize the intrusion of alpha
sleep waves into delta waves. This encourages the replenishing
of numerous neuro-transmitters and promotes the regeneration
of several tissue types. Dr. M. Norden, an American
neurologist, states in his book, ‘Beyond Prozac’, that anions
improve cognitive function, decrease depression and
irritability and boost the immune system. It is
this last effect that should be of interest to the man with
PD.
Dr. Danaka, a Japanese physiologist, has also demonstrated that
negative ions induce favorable effects, in that negative
charges are an integral component of protein in blood serum.
These anions are captured and detached by gamma globulins that
initiate a chemical cascade, resulting in a significant
increase in the gamma-globulin concentration in the blood. The
presence of extra-cellular negative ions promotes the
potential difference across the cellular membrane, thereby
optimizing the sodium-potassium pump, and enhancing nutrient
supply into the cytoplasm and waste elimination from the cell.
This effect is promoted and accelerated by the magnetic field
emitted by the Acutouch Pointers.
Reaction and Response
Different people and different conditions respond to Genesen
Acutouch therapy in different ways. Once the Acutouch pointers
have been applied to an identified treatment point, you will
probably feel a distinct sensation within 15 to 30 seconds,
although in some cases it can take 90 seconds or more to
develop. The sensation can feel like a light buzzing sensation
under the skin, or a tingling, or fullness or pressure, or
warmth can also occur, as well as a variable fading or
increasing of a pin-like sensation under the point of the
Genesen instrument. At an extreme response, it can happen that
a person can feel a very strong and deep penetration sensation
in spite of a light and limited touch with the point of the
instrument. The response is caused by stimulation from a
galvanic current created by the Pointers, that travels from
the blue Pointer to the red Pointer. It really can be a very interesting and unusual
experience that must be felt to be believed. If there is no
sensation at all at a particular point, other than the feeling
of the sharp point of the device resting on the skin, it can
be explained by a number of reasons:
1. You are not close enough to
an actual treatment point
2. You may have taken some pain-killing or
anti-inflammatory medication within the last few days to have
altered the response of your nerve system
3. The nerves in that area might be damaged
4. There is no interference or imbalance of energy in that
area; there is no problem in the area you have applied the Acutouch Pointers to initiate a response
5. Your skin is too dry or has a low mineral content, and is
not able to conduct a galvanic current. Drinking more
water or taking mineral supplements should change this
condition.
If there is no reaction or response under the Acutouch Pointer
tips after 90 seconds, for whatever reason, simply move the
Acutouch Pointer around the area of treatment to another
location that might be closer to the correct site after you
have re-evaluated your treatment site. Keep moving the
pointers around after 10-15 seconds until you locate a site
that causes a reaction or response like those described
above.
You do not have to press the Acutouch Pointers into the skin
for a reaction response. The simple weight of the devices on
the skin is sufficient; pressure is not needed nor does it
increase the benefits from treatment with the device.
This explanation should tell you that the Acutouch Pointers
are something special in acupuncture treatment. This is an
exciting instrument that will enable you to do some
interesting therapy on your own. Let us instruct you how to
use the Acutouch to help yourself like nothing else we have
seen before.

Care of the
Acutouch Pointers
Caution: the Acutouch is very sharp at the ends! Do not allow
children to play with this device. Since the tips, or treating
ends, of the Acutouch Pointers are very pointed and sharp.
Therefore, great caution should be used when treating yourself to avoid
injury by puncturing the skin. The tips are made very sharp to
maintain concentration of focused energy to the acupuncture
point being treated. Because of the sharpness of the
instrument, do not allow children to use or play with the
Genesen Acutouch Pointers. Also, great care should be used to avoid
damaging the pointed tip by dropping or bending in
any way. A damaged tip will reduce the ability of this
instrument
to work properly. Clean each Pointer tip with alcohol prior to
each use to assure the best level of galvanic conduction.
PD Connection
Acupuncture is included in the list of possible therapies for PD
because it is such a powerful therapy tool.
PDI’s acupuncturist
accepted the challenge of modifying how acupuncture is
performed outside of the office, to become an effective
personal system
that is quick to learn and easy to perform in the privacy of
the home. PDI tried for a long while to create an effective,
efficient, safe, dependable, and economical method of
providing at-home acupuncture treatment for PD. After
considerable trial and error, the Genesen Acutouch pointer treatment approach
was developed that is especially well suited for PD. The
technique we offer can be learned quickly with the
instructions that
PDI
includes with each set of Genesen Acutouch
pointers; it is available for your use
with a liberal policy of email help and instruction from the
PDI
acupuncturist. Other important material and information is
also included in this offering so that a man with PD can
follow his treatment program easily at home with minimal loss of time
or
expense, and no embarrassment.
Without the Genesen Acutouch Pointers it would not be
possible to suggest an at-home acupuncture treatment to bring
energy to the lower pelvis. The
PDI instructions
clearly demonstrate specific acupuncture treatment
points that suggest possible use to increase tissue
resistance and healing ability − as in a condition like PD. No where else will you
find this level of specific and detailed acupuncture
instruction that is so easy to put to use for at-home
application. Not even the Genesen Acutouch manual
addresses this area of interest for the man who has PD.
This selection of points and different techniques have been determined from the
experience of
PDI’s acupuncturist based on his 35 years
experience in acupuncture.
PDI does not make any guarantee or promise of outcome as a
result of home use of the Acutouch instrument. No one can
guarantee results for any kind of health care procedure, least
of all a problem as complex as PD. However, we are confident
you will be pleased with the Genesen equipment, the instruction, the
ease and simplicity of treating yourself at home. This is a
serious and well thought out program of acupuncture care that
would certainly impress a most knowledgeable and experienced
acupuncturist. You will be guided to use this equipment is
such a way that you will also be impressed.
There are several advantages of Acutouch non-needle
acupuncture to the
PDI program:
1. Acutouch non-needle acupuncture stimulation is painless and
safe.
2. Simplicity of technique. Nothing technical or difficult to
memorize; lots of pictures to follow.
3. Privacy and convenience. Can be done at any time at home.
4. Economy. With the cost of an acupuncture office visit
averaging $65-125 per visit in various parts of the US, the
cost of the Genesen instrument is quickly recouped after just
a few uses.
5. Effectiveness of point stimulation. The Genesen Acutouch
instrument is manufactured to ISO9002 standards, the product
carries CE certification as a Class 1 medical device. It
causes penetration of chi to pass down through the gold tips
(coated in 20 microns of 24K gold for optimum hygiene,
performance and response) into the body to a depth of 25mm (1
inch).
Acupuncture has been used for
more than 5,000 years, and is rapidly
gaining acceptance in the West because there is a scientific
rationale to explain how it helps sick people get well.
With the invention of the Acutouch Pointer any man with PD is
able to self-administer an acupuncture treatment that is
intended specifically for PD. Using answers provided to a
brief questionnaire as a guide, it is possible to treat
yourself at home easily, quickly and economically. This
information and the treatment procedure is only available thorough
PDI.
Acutouch Pointer
product recommendation
Before
PDI learned about the Genesen Acutouch Pointers,
we knew of no acupuncture device with as much capability to stimulate
biologic activity that was available and friendly to the layperson. Now,
with the Genesen Acutouch Pointers, it
is possible to do an advanced level of acupuncture treatment
in the privacy of your home, and save money on top of it. It
is our opinion that there is no better way to address all of
the needs of PD acupuncture treatment than with the Genesen
Acutouch Pointer instrument.

There is
another oriental medicine technique – that can be used
alone or in addition to the Acutouch Pointers – with
potential benefit to PD. This innovative healing method
is a very advanced and well-researched technique
developed by Dr.Ito of Japan. In his country Dr. Ito is
highly respected for the scientific advances he contributed to
medical care.
Two great advantages of Dr. Ito’s technique are that it
can be used virtually 24 hours a day for constant
treatment of the PD scar, and it is very economical. For
those with further interest in another variation of
acupuncture point stimulation, click
