Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electroacupuncture is an advanced form of traditional acupuncture which shares many similarities to its historical cousin. As with traditional acupuncture, needles are inserted on specific points along the body. These needles are then energized using small amounts of controlled electrical currents; voltage applied can be fine tuned and calibrated in order to best address a patient's specific health issues. Originally published in 1980, Electro-Acupuncture for Dentistry (also titled EAV Special) has become the classic manual for holistic health practitioners, doctors, and dentists integrating electroacupuncture into their practices to help their patients. Author Dr. John K. Char, world renowned as a pioneer in the holistic healing arts, was one of the few dentists in the State of Hawaii to fully integrate alternative and homeopathic medicine in an everyday dental practice. Whether you are an interested layperson, dentist, or holistic health practitioner, this book discusses how to use EAV techniques to help patients with dental pain, discomfort, swelling, and much more. Dr. Char is a homeopathic physician, dentist, licensed massage therapist, and doctor of natural science. He mentored in Germany with the late Dr. Reinhold Voll and has trained hundreds of integrative health practitioners from around the world. Dr. Char is the head of the Dr. John K. Char Holistic Wellness Center of Hawaii. He can be reached online at www.drjohnchar.com.

Book excerpt: This book, Acupuncture for Orofacial Pain and Dentistry, is a reference for assessment and treatment planning in the clinic, and is a clear and concise handbook for students and practitioners of acupuncture for orofacial pain and dentistry. Acupuncture is an increasingly utilized treatment option for myofascial pain in the United States. According to the 2007 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), which included a comprehensive survey of complementary and alternative medicine use by Americans, an estimated 3.1 million adults and 150,000 children had used acupuncture in the previous year. Trigger point therapy has been an accepted part of treatment for orofacial pain for decades. Dry needling is now extensively practiced. Acupuncture and trigger point therapy or dry needling are similar. This book, available in color soft cover and ebook formats, will include: * Comprehensive medical illustrations demonstrating acupuncture point locations and indications for specific diagnoses. * Easy to follow instructions, photographs, and video links demonstrating acupuncture needling points and acupuncture techniques.

Download or read book A Double blinded Randomized Controlled Trial of Acupuncture for the Control of Intra operative Dental Pain written by Eric Jonathan Goldlust and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background. Acupuncture analgesia (AA) has been reported for the control of pain during dental surgery in numerous case reports and largely uncontrolled studies. Rigorous, blinded, controlled trials are needed to confirm the utility of AA in dentistry. Current methodology for such studies remains inadequate. Objectives. These studies include (1) a case series ("Pilot Study") to determine the feasibility of electro-acupuncture for pain control during various dental procedures; (2) a double-blinded, randomized trial ("Validation Study") to develop credible, novel, non-invasive placebo acupuncture methods; and (3) a double-blinded, randomized trial ("Clinical Trial") to compare peak pain levels during tooth extraction in patients receiving either 1.8mL of 2% lidocaine with epinephrine 1:100,000 plus placebo electroacupuncture ("control" treatment), 1.8mL of plain 2% lidocaine plus true electroacupuncture ("experimental" treatment), or 1.8mL of 2% lidocaine with epinephrine 1:100,000 plus true electro-acupuncture ("combination" treatment). Results. In the pilot study (n = 12), AA was effective at controlling pain during extractions, fillings, scaling and root planing. Among pilot subjects, 58% reported moderate pain or less, without elective anesthetic. In the validation study, true acupuncture was virtually indistinguishable from sham acupuncture. Kappa statistics for agreement between actual and perceived treatment, for all subjects and personnel (n = 83 observations) were 0.25 for anesthetic type and 0.17 for acupuncture type. Similar observations for patients only (n = 15) were 0.22 and 0.03, respectively. In the clinical trial, peak pain and additional anesthetic usage were similar across treatment groups (p = 0.75 for peak pain, p = 0.17 for anesthetic). Combination subjects (n = 19) reported peak pain levels of 3.7 ± 2.8 (mean ± SD; 0-10 scale), while experimental and control subjects (n = 22 each) reported peak pain levels of 4.6 ± 3.2 and 4.1 ± 3.2, respectively. Combination subjects received 1.0 ± 1.5 mL of elective anesthetic on average, while experimental and control subjects received 1.3 ± 1.4 and 1.9 ± 1.6 mL, respectively. Conclusions. There was no difference in pain control during tooth extraction between an electro-acupuncture protocol and lidocaine with epinephrine, although trends suggest a small additive effect in those receiving both. Blinding methods developed for this study were effective throughout study procedures and are suitable for use in similar future studies, as well as trials of electro-acupuncture in general

Book excerpt: Essentials of Electroacupuncture, 3rd Edition adds new and valuable resources to existing textbooks. It is a formal textbook, which provides complete and detailed instructions how to perform electro-acupuncture for stroke, polyneuropathy, spinal disc disease, other painful neurological, musculoskeletal diseases, and functional disorders. There are 6.8 million stroke survivors and 20 million polyneuropathy patients in the United States. Electro-acupuncture brings clinical remissions much earlier than traditional acupuncture, especially when Extraordinary Channels are used. This makes electro-acupuncture the preferred procedure in terms of time and cost spent for treatments. The effectiveness of electro-acupuncture makes a positive contribution to the healthcare spending in which the cost of healthcare on the national scale rises every year at an exponential rate. Also early clinical remissions from electro-acupuncture reduces the costs of monthly drug refills and equipment rentals such as wheel chairs and walkers. The author is a board-certified internist, and he maintains a pain management acupuncture practice in Burbank, California. In this updated edition, Dr. Choi articulates the theoretical and technical basis of the practice, detailing its history and development, diagnostic principles, and techniques for safe and effective treatment. The new edition adds to explanations and prescriptions related to the extraordinary channels, the four types of body constitution, and pulse diagnosis. When the extraordinary channels and the diagnostic schemes are used, clinical remissions arrive earlier. The importance of the source of channel energy and its movement is stressed with new selections from the writings of legendary acupuncturists Pian Que and Hua Tuo. The result is a more comprehensive explanation of the practice and theory of acupuncture as a whole, and electro-acupuncture specifically. A valuable guide and instruction book for practicing acupuncturists, students, and those interested in Chinese traditional medicine, Essentials of Electroacupuncture, 3rd Edition honors past masters of acupuncture while looking toward the future.
