InspectionAuscultation and OlfactionInquiringPalpationTraditional diagnosisThe acupuncturist decides which points to treat by observing and questioning the patient in order to make a diagnosis according to the tradition which he or she utilizes. In TCM, there are four diagnostic methods: inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiring, and palpation.[69]Inspection focuses on the face and particularly on the tongue, including analysis of the tongue size, shape, tension, color and coating, and the absence or presence of teeth marks around the edge.Auscultation and olfaction refer, respectively, to listening for particular sounds (such as wheezing) and attending to body odor.Inquiring focuses on the "seven inquiries", which are: chills and fever; perspiration; appetite, thirst and taste; defecation and urination; pain; sleep; andmensesandleukorrhea.Palpation includes feeling the body for tenderA-shi points, and palpation of the left and right radial pulses .

Traditional diagnosisThe acupuncturist decides which points to treat by observing and questioning the patient in order to make a diagnosis according to the tradition which he or she utilizes. In TCM, there are four diagnostic methods: inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiring, and palpation.[69]Inspection focuses on the face and particularly on the tongue, including analysis of the tongue size, shape, tension, color and coating, and the absence or presence of teeth marks around the edge.Auscultation and olfaction refer, respectively, to listening for particular sounds (such as wheezing) and attending to body odor.Inquiring focuses on the "seven inquiries", which are: chills and fever; perspiration; appetite, thirst and taste; defecation and urination; pain; sleep; andmensesandleukorrhea.Palpation includes feeling the body for tenderA-shi points, and palpation of the left and right radial pulses .

6Tongue diagnosisPrincipal meridians (and internal organs) are reflected on specific tongue areaskidneyGB-stomach-spleen-liverHeart-lungBranches from the principal meridians go through the oropharynx and to the tongue.So the internal organs will affect the condition of the tongue.The tongue reflects the basic condition of the patient and the underlying problem at the time of exam.The condition of the tongue helps to predict the results of acupuncture treatments and prognosis.The tongue is an indicator of change as patients develop through their illness and treatments.The tongue is easy to observe.
Each organ has a zone on the tongue where its activities are reflected.The tongue, especially the tip, reflects the state of the FTs energy and may show evidence of emotional conflict.The digestive system is represented in the midline along the length of the tongue.KI is found at the base of the tongue.
7Tongue DiagnosisColor
Light red or pink: normal Red: abnormal heatPale: yang deficiency or blood deficiencyPurple tongue: stasis
Tongue Color can be affected by food or natural pigmentationColor of tongue is the most important aspect of tongue observation.Color of the body of the tongue reflects the state of the Yin organs, Blood, and Rong Qi.8Tongue ColorPale tongueLight red tongue
Shape:
Thin tongue: pale: blood def. red: yin def.
Swollen : Sp chi def.yang def.
Cracks: long horizontal cracks:red: kidney yin def.9Tongue ColorNeed good lighting,
preferably natural light
For adequate inspection of color
How to examine the tongue:
Ask when and what they last ate or drank (or smoked)Ask if they scrape their tonguesCheck tongue at the beginning of each treatmentNatural lighting is best (not reliable under fluorescent lights or near colored walls)Tongue should be extended without straining or gagging and opened wide enough to see the baseNot longer than 15 secondsCompare between treatments10Tongue ColorLIGHT red tongueRed tongue

Acupuncture in the NewsAARP Bulletin April 2013Acupuncture for Pain
At best, people get about a 20 to 30 percent reduction in pain from opioid pain medicationA recent study of acupuncture, for instance, found that it helped ease pain in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.37Dr. Terry Oleson in Californiaresearched and taught ear acupunture
Dr. Nogier mapped points
Auriculotherapy was developed by the FrenchneurologistPaul Nogierin 1957[citation needed]using aphrenologicalmethod of projection of afetalHomunculuson the ear for reference of complaints and points for treatment. The method is an offshoot of Phrenology.
Ear acupuncture did not develop originally in the Orient, as is often thought. A French physician, Dr. Nogier, was intrigued by the folk remedy of cauterizing points on the ear for back pain, and as a result, sought to "map" the relationship of points on the ear to points on the body.

NADA protocol for drug withdrawal
Acupuncture Group Therapy
NADA protocol
What is the "NADA protocol"?At five designated ear points in each auricle (outer ear), clinicians trained through NADA apply fine gauge, sterilized, one-time use stainless steel needles just under the skin, where they remain for up to an hour while the client (in most circumstances) relaxes quietly in a comfortable chair. Ordinarily, groups of clients sit together while undergoing the treatment. The procedure functions as an adjunct to a comprehensive treatment program offering the basic therapeutic elements of counseling, education, family involvement, mutual support group involvement, supportivehealth care ofgeneral nature. Clients in all types of treatment settings including inpatient, outpatient, incarcerated, shelters, harm reduction and street outreach can utilize this treatment. Among the benefits reported by clients and clinicians are improved program retention, a more optimistic and cooperative attitude toward the process of recovery, as well as reductions in cravings, anxiety, sleep disturbance and need for pharmaceuticals.
NADA celebrated its 25th anniversary this year. Incorporated in 1985 in the state of New York, NADA has helped spread acudetoxfar and wide, nationally and internationally.In 1985, following 10 years of their experience developing the basic five ear-points NADA protocol for treatment of addiction, the staff and other professionals associated with the South Bronx's Lincoln Hospital determined a need for a national-level organization to expand training capacity and awareness of the value of acupuncture as a tool of recovery.NADA was then established toenrollmembers, establish a collection of related reference materials, codify a training curriculum and develop a flexible system for registering qualified trainers and delivering trainings. NADA has since trained more than 10,000 health professionals, including counselors, social workers, nurses, medical doctors, psychologists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, outreach workers, drug court judges, corrections officers and others to use the protocol.

Battlefield Auricular ProtocolFive ear acupoints in specific order:
Cingulate gyrusThalamusOmega 2Point zero primeShen men
For acute painDeveloped by Dr. Niemtzow in 2001 in the course of researching a more efficient auriculotherapy system for the rapid relief of pain. Many civilian and military acupuncturists utilize this protocol daily in medical practice in the clinic and in the field.
Delivers significant attenuation of pain in just a few miutes. Lasts for varying periods of time (minutes to months, depending on the the pathology, etc.)
Most likely favors the processing and modulation of pain in the CNS involving the hypothalamus, thalamus, cingulate gyrus, and cerebral cortex structions.
Typically use ASP gold needles.
After placing in CG, the patient is allowed to ambulate for about 2 minutes to determine whether the pain is improved. If no improvement, an ASP needle is inserted into the CG of the opposite ear, and the patient ambulates again to determine the new pain level.
Another ASP needle is placed in the thalamus point in the ear that has produced the most pain relief. The patient ambulates and the new pain level is determined.
Whichever ear produces greater attenuation, ASP needles are place in sequential manner for Omega 2, point zero, and shenmen.
After the dominant ear has received ASP needles in all the battlefield acupuncture points, the pain level is evaluated. If the pain level is above 1/10, the other ear is needled in a similar manner.
Dr. N. uses Omega 2, Shenmen, and Point zero bilaterally without walking the patient but with fast insertion of the needles for resolving most migraine HA/s (first regular needles, then ASP after migraine resolved.)
