In 2006, she heard about Dr Ulrich Werths method with the implantsin the ears for treating Parkinsons. It reminded her Dr Paul Nogierswords in one of the Auricular Magazines. One day, while treating a manin his clinic, he related that he would have liked to cribble the pointwith many needles rather than only one: the situation was really chronicand the patient needed help. In her practice she had experienced thatfeeling too and she is amazed that Dr Werth came out with those microimplants inserted in different points of the ear to stop or slow down thedestructive process of the Parkinsons. D. Lise is now in her third year of practice and research in the field ofEar Acupuncture and Parkinson. At the same time, she keeps treatingher regular patients, but at a lower rythm. Like Dr Paul Nogier, she is all ears to the stories of her patients. Theanswer of the healing is in their life experiences. That is her truth andliving passion. If she can have you walk, shell do it! D. Lise lives in Ottawa with her son Dannie and husband Michel AndrBeauvolsk, since 1992.
Download or read book Auriculotherapy written by Raphaël Nogier and published by Thieme. This book was released on 2008 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Continuation of Paul Nogiers FindingsAuriculotherapy is based on proven correspondences between locations on the external ear and the internal organs and systems of the body. The ear acts like an input/output terminal in direct contact with the central nervous system. Information on viscerosomatic states can be accessed via visual clues, skin electro-conductivity, and pressure sensitivity at specific points. The first part of Raphael Nogiers Auriculotherapy shows how acupuncture needles, magnets, infra-red laser, and electrical frequencies are used in sophisticated and powerful therapeutic interventions that can be highly effective at restoring the homeostatic balance necessary for physical health and mental-emotional well-being. The second part introduces the principles and practice of Auriculomedicine, a true frequency medicine that evolved from Dr. Nogiers auriculotherapy, his discovery of the VAS (Vascular Autonomic Signal) in the pulse and his consequent observations of the diagnostic and therapeutic properties of radiant light frequencies on the skin.The material presented here builds on and updates the work of the authors father, Dr Paul Nogier, who scientifically explored and charted the auricular microsystems in the 1950s. The latter is widely credited with re-introducing the practical application of auricular acupuncture to China in the 1960s where the technique had fallen into disuse. The auricular location charts currently in use in China and the west are largely based on his findings.A serviceable, contemporary work for students of acupuncture as well as practitioners, offering clear and practical information to be applied directly for the benefit of patients.

Book excerpt: In October1968 Captain George Morgan is about to embark on what he considers to be the best job in the U.S. Army commanding a rifle company in combat. At age 27, he will be referred to as "The Old Man" by the soldiers under his command. He is already a seasoned veteran of service in Vietnam and is now returning for a second tour of duty in what has become an increasingly unpopular war in the U.S. During this assignment, Morgan acquires a keen sense of responsibility to his unit, which calls itself "Charlie Hunter", and to the men who serve in it. He develops a special bond with many of his men, and one in particular a young Mexican who is nicknamed Mouse. The story takes this unit on many dangerous missions and recounts the bravery and compassion of the soldier called Mouse. In the course of operations, the unit comes into contact with a mysterious Vietnamese woman, who eventually brings the commander to Saigon. That visit draws the captain into the realm of espionage and subterfuge and culminates with him on stand-by to lead a mission to rescue the Vietnamese woman. While leading his men on combat missions, Captain Morgan becomes increasingly disillusioned with the war and finds it more and more difficult to justify America's presence in Vietnam to his subordinates; yet, he must continue to set the example and project the image of the "stalwart commander."

Download or read book Mysteries of the Ear written by Nadia Volf and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since ancient times, the human outer ear, or auricle, has been considered a tool for healing, corroborated by recent scientific research. Various points on the auricle serve a double function, providing information on the condition of the internal organs and other parts of the body, while at the same time serving as a control panel that makes it possible to "change the settings" when there is a malfunction. Rather like a computer keyboard connected to a computer network, the outer ear is connected to the entire central nervous system; pressing on one of the auricle's "keys" affects the programming of the organism's self-regulatory system.
