The Risks of Acupuncture and Tuina

The following practitioners are all my friends, and some of the cases they have experienced are what I have seen with my own eyes, and some are descriptions of the process that I have heard from my friends. A gentleman from Xiamen, good at acupuncture and moxibustion, also good at Taoist magic, often with acupuncture and moxibustion with charms and spells, the effect is quite miraculous, I have witnessed his treatment of a frozen shoulder can not lift up, in the same side of the deltoid muscle to tie a needle, nor twist and turn nor mention insert, sword finger knuckles while reciting the incantation and drawing charms, read the end of the needle, the patient responded to raise his hands, the spectators are amazed. The company has been practicing medicine for many years, and has gained a lot of insight, and has often been enlightened, so the medical skills are excellent, and there are often patients who come to the door after being cured, so they live at home and often have patients seeking treatment, so they are arrogant and often call themselves masters, and their business cards state in red letters that they are not to be disturbed by minor illnesses, and specialize in treating cancer, tumors, leukemia, stroke, hemiplegia, and other major illnesses and stubborn diseases, so they have quite a reputation in the community. One day June suddenly phone with me, the words are decadent, all without the usual vigor and momentum, it turns out that June took over a liver cancer patient some time ago, zap a few days, see some results, one night after zap a good home, the next morning the patient’s family suddenly told the patient died, June was shocked, anxiously asked the reason, answer, unknown. Fortunately, the patient’s family did not unreasonable claims, and did not go to the court to pursue. Although the matter was laid to rest, June thought before and after, and was quite frightened, from then on, he was cautious, and no longer received treatment for all terminal diseases. The acupuncture department of the studio Zhang Ge A Sichuan native, good at massage, the family’s swallow butterfly technique, quite some fame, this gentleman is smart and good at learning, after absorbing the American Chinese style and other schools of chiropractic techniques, absorbing and understanding, quite a lot of achievements, so the effectiveness of treatment has increased greatly, but also considered a first-class master, hundreds of miles around and many patients admiring the name, the daily doors are full. One day, the treatment of a patient cervical pain, a June examination know and thoracic spine, so the chiropractic, under the force, heard a click, the patient immediately cry pain, can not turn over, breathing also pain, June disposal ineffective, emergency hospital examination, two broken ribs. Of course, this incident was followed by a lot of trouble, and not only did June’s reputation suffer greatly, her face also aged significantly within a few days. According to June, the technique was not heavy, I also know that June’s technique is always gentle to win, heard about this, also very much for June feel unfair, but although the patient is not old, already belongs to the severe osteoporosis, not touching is also about to break, even if your technique is gentle, so what? There are thousands of masters in manipulation, who can say a harsh word? It is also unlucky that you have this disaster. A gentleman from Henan, studying qigong for many years, good at acupuncture, acupuncture and massage, practicing medicine for several years, in the local quite some fame. One day a neighbor suffering from lumbar pain, door-to-door treatment, June let him go to the hospital imaging examination and then come back, the neighbor stingy money does not want, but to seek a treatment, June think of the neighbor’s feelings, according to its symptom analysis should be a lumbar protrusion, so acupuncture and massage combined, the next day, the patient’s symptoms gradually aggravated, and even two days later was bedridden, so carried to the hospital for examination, the diagnosis is lumbar spine bone tuberculosis and sacral spine tumor, the needle to the bone tuberculosis The patient’s family then looked for the full amount of the claim, saying that the responsibility of the matter is caused by the June acupuncture, or more than that, the June fear, want to close the store and family out of hiding, and telephone to inform me, I advised the June never to hide, a hide that is clearly weak heart and justified, must face the righteousness, justified, unreasonable play. You listened to me, and the middleman arranged for the two sides to sit down and talk, and finally paid 10,000 yuan to settle, and you also bought a deep lesson. A Jun Hubei people’s, good acupuncture acupuncture knife osteopathic ointment, etc., the practice of medicine for more than ten years, experienced, but often for the needle knife hook needle and other risk concerns, although the effect is good, the risk is too big. One day I heard that a certain place has fine needle therapy, the method is simple and effective, only in the skin superficial needling, so it is very safe, so I was pleased to learn this magic technique, back to the needle knife hook needle and so on has been disdain, and around the release of statements claiming safe and quick effect painless! The actual cure for lumbar synostosis and so on. One day, I treated a patient with lumbar pain, about 60 years old, who was introduced to me by an old customer, when I was visiting you. After the needle made the patient get up and try it, the effect was obvious, it was not too painful, so the patient and his family thanked him a lot and left, but I saw Jun smug, this is the former story. The next day, the patient’s family called Jun early in the morning, saying that his father was fine yesterday, but he did not sleep at night and felt difficulty in breathing in the morning, I do not know why, Jun also could not explain, I guess the cold and cold, so I told him that if aggravation needs to go to the hospital for examination and treatment. At noon, the old customer who introduced the patient called June, saying that the patient had died, and the hospital concluded that “sudden death”, the cause is unknown. June is very strange, so small needle shallow prick, the site also did not touch the internal organs, the treatment method should be absolutely no danger ah, it is difficult to have other internal disease outbreak? I also puzzled, of course, the matter can not rely on the hospital and June any party, the patient’s family also just as fate should be. When I recalled this case, it dawned on me: it’s not safe to have a shallow needle, but if you don’t know where the point of death is, it seems absolutely safe to have a shallow needle, unknowingly it can harm people. According to Fu’s theory, I think this case if the thick needle to each other, or instead of so. A gentleman from Fuzhou, gifted, brain, practice qigong for more than 20 years, good at chiropractic acupuncture, the most adept at freehand cosmetic surgery, the technique is excellent, between the hands and feet people younger five years is not a dream, I met with the gentleman somewhere in Shandong, as soon as we met, hate to see each other. In the summer heat, I invited you to exchange, and self-drive tour Qingcheng Mountain, the trip between the laughs, both sides have a lot of gains. The patient was more than 60 years old and had already undergone a lumbar herniation surgery five years ago, which showed a scar of more than ten centimeters on his waist. The patient’s pelvis was obviously skewed, and since June had come from far away, he should be allowed to show his skills here. The patient was able to sit down and get up easily after getting up, but the knee pain when squatting could not be tried, and blood was released from his N fossa at the angry tendons about dozens of milliliters, and then the leg was divided into tendons and bones, and the patient was able to squat to the end immediately after getting up. He went home. A few days later, the patient’s family called and said that the patient’s back pain worsened the next day after the last treatment, so they went to the hospital for a checkup and took a film saying that the lumbar spine was misaligned at the original surgery (this is where the hospital doctor was great), so they were hospitalized and have been doing much better for a few days, and the hospital doctor said that the patient should not have done the massage, with the implication that they should not have let my friend do the manipulation. I immediately explained that patients should not go to the hospital, after the blood stabbing some patients will have a symptom aggravation process, is a normal reaction, after a few days to get better, do surgery place not to mention whether it is really misaligned, even if there is also impossible to be caused by this rectification of the pelvis, because there is no rotation of the patient’s waist, and her waist so bang hard how easily misaligned ah, helpless how to explain, the patient’s family has Ironically, the hospital was right and no longer trust us. I’m not afraid of patient misunderstanding, I’ve always been suspicious of the unbelievers are not treated, love to come, love to believe, mainly my friends depressed ah. The primary responsibility for this case in I forgot to explain the patient after the needle stabbing blood some reaction, but stabbing blood or, stabbing needles also, what reaction this is a good explanation, is the technique touch also do not touch, otherwise it will not get off, once the film has a what, the doctor said is your responsibility that is your responsibility, on the non-say is you moved you and what can you do? Yellow mud fell in your pants, and you dare to say that it is not shit? Who believes? Anyway, I do not believe it!
