All areas pricked by needles produce a lasting muscle relaxation effect, i.e. the body’s difficult to deal with muscle spasms caused by pain magically get released. This has led to a breakthrough in the clinical treatment of traditional silver needle therapy under the guidance of soft tissue surgery theory. That is, by the general drug and physical therapy difficult to cure, need surgery to solve the stubborn cases using intensive silver needle acupuncture treatment can be achieved with surgery is comparable to the near and long-term results. In a sense, this treatment has achieved the role of needle instead of knife, since the 1970s, about 20,000 cases of severe head, neck, shoulder, back and leg pain patients treated by this therapy, received very good near and long-term results. (Xuan’s near-term is within five years, five to ten years later is considered a long-term effect) Treatment characteristics: 1. The attachment point (area) of the muscle on the bone, that is, the combination of point and surface. (also the muscle starting and stopping points in acupuncture medicine) rather than the traditional acupuncture points. So this therapy needles than ordinary acupuncture site deep in and a large range. 2, the needle body is thicker, 1-1.1mm in diameter, will not cause broken needles or stagnant needles due to excessive muscle contraction. 3, the texture is soft, with silver as the main raw material. 4.Conducting heat is fast. The temperature of the needle body is about one hundred degrees when the moxa is burned, and the temperature of the needle tip is 39-41 degrees when the needle is pierced into the skin at 55 degrees. This kind of heat conduction to the deeper part of the disease and spread to the surrounding soft tissue, according to the number of needles, the degree of density (generally have a needle distance of one to two cm) to form a deep penetration of muscle tissue directly to the periosteum of the thermal response area, which is generally incomparable to physical therapy. Mechanism: The idea is based on the theory of soft tissue surgery to determine where the lesion of soft tissue damage is located, that is, the extra-vertebral canal skeletal muscle – periosteal junction area (pressure pain point, area) for the needle site. In other words, the treatment is carried out in strict accordance with the anatomical positioning of soft tissue surgery, and the site, direction, depth and number of needles are clearly limited, as if performing soft tissue release surgery. For example, the head, neck, scapular back is an area, etc. This method has a long-term effect on soft tissue damage pain, that is, after the recovery of the treatment damage, the effect can be maintained for several years; in general, after a week, the treatment site pain is sharply reduced, muscle spasm gradually relaxed, one to three months mostly eliminate pain symptoms (including pressure pain). It has three main effects: 1. eliminate sterile inflammation. 2. 2.Increase local blood supply. 3.Relaxing muscle spasm and extensively reducing the phenomenon of increased pressure in the soft tissue of the local lesion area. Clinical observation: the muscle weakness in the lesion area appeared about one month after treatment, and the muscle tone of skeletal muscle was significantly reduced compared with before, which may be related to thermal injury. Some scholars pathological histology 24-hour horizontal section observation shows: the formation of a cylindrical heat conduction biological response area centered on the needle channel after treatment with warm silver needle, different from the traditional warm needle, and physiotherapy high frequency, ultra-high frequency therapy, which is a silver needle-mediated thermal injury therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure. Tissue observation: the treatment site after one month blood flow increased significantly, thus changing the local ischemia and hypoxia, the cavity left after starting the needle exists with blood and the possibility of regenerative vascularization, similar to laser myocardial punching for myocardial infarction. Judging from the significant increase in blood flow even one month after treatment, this can promote the repair of damaged tissues in the area of muscle attachment. Silver needling techniques: straight, oblique, flat, subperiosteal, drilling, circumferential, and small amplitude insertion techniques (i.e., the foci of aseptic inflammatory lesions with a strong sensation of needles around the lesion, while destroying the sensory nerve endings in the lesion). In the same cloth needles and the same heating situation, for example, there is a great difference in the efficacy of the lifting plug and not lifting plug, for example, if a part of the correct use of small-amplitude lifting plug technique once to eliminate the focal area of sterile inflammatory cases, without this technique three times is not possible to eliminate it. If you don’t use the small-amplitude lifting and inserting technique, even if the clinical symptoms are eliminated after treatment, but there must be a pathological basis of sterile inflammation that is not completely eliminated, and clinical symptoms will appear again later. The strength of the acupuncture treatment is positively correlated with the efficacy.
