Fang Scalp Acupuncture is a holographic microsystem that integrates traditional Chinese medicine with modern neuroscience, where the entire human body is mapped onto the scalp using cranial suture lines as landmarks for precise point location. This system allows practitioners to treat complex conditions including pain, stress, neurological disorders, and autoimmune diseases by influencing the central nervous system to reset the body's self-healing mechanisms. The 12 Jia Zi Framework Protocol provides a systematic approach to point selection, while the holographic imaging technique enables practitioners to visualize and treat embedded organ-level issues that may not be apparent through surface symptoms alone. Clinical evidence demonstrates that precise point location and immediate post-treatment assessment are critical for achieving rapid and meaningful therapeutic results.

Fang Scalp Acupuncture and the 12 Framework Protocol for Rapid Results | Acupuncture CEUs/PDAsAdded:
Good morning everyone. Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Saturday and welcome to today's eLotus webinar.
Before we get started, let me ask you this.
Have you ever wished you could achieve faster, more consistent results for your patients, especially when treating pain, stress, or neurological disorders? Or wondered how some practitioners seem to get instant, powerful changes with precise scalp points?
If you're ready to learn all about Fang's scalp acupuncture, type yes in the chat room.
My name is Myra Chen and I'm your host and moderator for today's eLotus webinar.
At eLotus, we have been providing continuing education for over three decades and we're proud to be your trusted source for premium CE content featuring over 200 speakers, 900 courses, and more than 3,000 hours of CE.
Today's course is Fang's scalp acupuncture and the 12 framework protocol for rapid results sponsored by Evergreen Herbs.
Fang's scalp acupuncture is a powerful microsystem that blends the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine with modern neuroscience to produce rapid and effective results.
In this class, you will learn the 12 Jiao Su framework protocol, how to locate, understand, and apply each point to reduce stress, balance organ function, and enhance overall health.
You will also explore the holographic imaging of the Fang's scalp microsystem, a very practical tool for pain management and clinical success.
It is my pleasure to introduce our new speaker today, Dr. Ching Chi Chi, who is a highly respected clinician, author, and researcher with over 20 years of experience in traditional Chinese medicine.
She is the founder of Care Comfort Care TCM Medical Group in Sunnyvale, California and the Unified Principle Method Residency Program, where she integrates Fang's scalp acupuncture with the five Shu points and holographic systems to treat a wide variety of complex internal and external conditions, including pain, neurological disorders, autoimmune diseases, gynecological and dermatological conditions, and more.
Dr. Chi studied directly under China's most distinguished practitioners and has since devoted her career to advancing the Fang's scalp acupuncture system, uniting classical theory with modern application.
In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Chi is also a professor at Five Branches University and also served as the director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Master's Program and lectures internationally across Taiwan, China, Brazil, and New Zealand.
With her extensive training and passion for bridging traditional wisdom with modern practice, Dr. Chi brings both depth and clarity to this remarkable system of healing.
If you're interested in more scalp acupuncture, I believe you'll also find Dr. Tai's scalp acupuncture an excellent complement to your practice, which is particularly effective for post-stroke rehabilitation in managing neurological disorders.
eLotus provides free resources on our core site to help you master this and many other acupuncture techniques, such as Master Tung, Balance Method, Auricular, and more by including informational videos on our YouTube channel, detailed descriptions and images of each acupoint, including locations, actions, indications, practical applications, expert insights, protocols, and more, all for free on mastertungacupuncture.org.
We hope these resources we have compiled over the decades will enhance your expertise and clinical results.
I will share the links to Dr. Ching Chi's speaker page and Dr. Tai's scalp acupuncture section in the chat room for you to explore.

Now, let's get started with today's class and welcome Dr. Ching Chi.
Hello everyone.
Uh if everybody can hear my voice uh clearly, if yes, please uh type yes on the chat box and I would like to also make sure that everybody can um see my presentation slides.
We can see your slide uh we can hear you just fine and then could you reshare your slides? Okay, great. Let me see.
You can How about now? Everybody can see my slides now?
It's loading. Let's see. Okay, perfect.
Great. Wonderful.
Okay, I'm so happy that uh eLotus that can invited me that to share my my love of my life, Fang's scalp acupuncture, with all of you and this is the first time I'm in this uh platform and I'm very excited and hopefully in the future that I will see you more of you in the future and then of course scalp acupuncture is quite a hands-on uh uh techniques. So, hopefully in the future we can see everybody if you are continuously want to learn more from me, that we'll see in person. So, the Fang's scalp acupuncture is actually also a holographic system. So, I know that uh eLotus had been provided a lot of educations on holographic systems and uh including the ear acupuncture, we know that our ear is actually a whole body.
And then when you take a look at the tongue diagnosis, our tongue also reflects the whole body. And uh and then the pulse taking is also a holographic system. Even a lot of the um a lot of the the um imagings where actually creating small human bodies in the in in our parts of our our sections of our our limbs, our section of our body that reflects the everything. So, scalp acupuncture is also another holographic systems and so if if that's the case, then in a sense that it's quite simple because there is a whole human body lay face down on the scalp and then the way how we identify them is through the suture line.
So, we know that in our bodies, we um hold on, let me see if there's anybody have any questions.
Okay.
Okay, no, not yet. Let me make sure this is in my screen so I can see everybody.
Okay, perfect.
Okay.
So, um I'm perf- I'm I'm a disciples of uh Dr. Fang Ben Zen. You can He is actually the son of the person who invented Fang's scalp acupuncture and uh next to it is another Dr. Joe and we're also um uh uh he's practicing Fang style in uh China in Guangzhou area. So, Fang Dr. Fang was originally from um it it's from Xi'an. So, a lot of people in China, they also talk about this Fang style as a Xi'an scalp acupuncture.
And uh I will talk a little bit about more of the history and why there's not many people know about this style, but uh let me talk about myself. My philosophy is that anything related to people are saving people's I try not to keep it a secret. Um I wanted to share as much as I can to all my students and including a lot of the uh uh resident students that following me and then my goal is to try to become a bridge because a lot of the uh informations that in Chinese is really hard to translate into different languages, but if you are able to explain clearly in English, then there is a possibility to be translated to many, many different languages.
Traditional Chinese medicine have been exist for for 5,000 years and a lot of people get benefits into it and it's a it's a it's a science actually. It's a science. It's related to heaven and earth and how human are correlated to this universe. And then it's following the nature. There's a lot of things that I learned and how to apply in my clinical practice by observing the environments and absorbing um a lot of the knowledge and wisdom from the universe. So, if you started to learning Chinese medicines and then you get into all this um you know observing the the things that are around you, you got a lot of inspirations. So, some one of my goal is to share this and to open the doors for a lot of students to get into that realm in order to just following the textbook or just um you know needling the places where the patient tell you to do.
You know, one of things that I told my students that if we're going to use our our points only, then we don't need to spend 4 years to study traditional Chinese medicine. Especially nowadays in the PTs are trying to use dry needles and replace a lot of the our practice scope, right? So, what how can we set ourselves different from the PTs? I think a lot of the holographic systems, five shoe points, and also how the way how traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture treatments being carried out is the gate for us to elevated our levels. So, then definitely people will love to come to acupuncture doctors to get acupuncture treatment instead of going to the PT.
Okay, and I was trying to explain you know complicated situations or complicated phenomenon into very simple words.
Because he says I was inspired by by Einstein. He says if if you cannot explain it is simple, you don't understand it well enough. So, that's my goal to set as a teacher. I want to use the simple language and try to explain complicated situations. So, hopefully all my students will get you know the the the the complicated words with like like for example, eating right? Eating actually a lot of the traditional Chinese medicine philosophy theories are coming from book eating. Eat this word is actually can be explained as simple.
Simple. So, things are simple usually are very complicated. But, the way how to understand and the way how it how it shows is actually pretty simple.
So, just like scalp acupuncture, in the way it's very simple. But, what is happening after the simplicity or behind the simplicity is very complicated.
Sometimes it's even beyond our understanding, but we don't need to understand any teeny peeny tiny things of the things that what's going on in our body, but we can utilize it and we can use it and then and set up something that can be further researched on. But, before that happened, we should enjoy it first, right? Just like we don't and know anything about a complete structures or nutrients that carried in the ginseng or carried in an even an apple, but we know that if we eat the apple, we can enjoy the taste we become strengthened. If we eat the ginseng, our immunity is getting better, right? And then we become stronger. So, there's a lot of things to be researched on, but doesn't mean that we need to understand every little things then we get a benefit out of it.
So, whoever are study, you know, the scalp acupuncture today, I want every you everyone of you to try in your clinic and then just to get a benefit out of it. And if you really want to get into a details, then furthermore we will we there's a lot of things to study about it. It's really hard to complete everything in one session or one day of the class, but I'll try my best.
So, how I practice?
And I usually see four or five patients per hours and 99% of my patients are only using acupuncture. Only one person of the patient want to use herbs only.
So, when I was studying my PhD in Zhejiang TCM University, I'm actually a herbalist. So, I use a lot I treat a lot of and my PhD my PhD is focused on autoimmune disease. So, there's a lot of autoimmune diseases like lupus and then children syndrome like and then that's there's a lot of like a rheumatoid arthritis, pemphigus. Those patients are pretty systemic and and multiple sclerosis.
It's pretty hard to not using herbal medicine.
So, so I was using herbal medicine mainly in my practice in in in in when I'm studying in China, but then later later on to and I I met Dr. Fang and then he was using acupuncture only. And then the most fascinating is that the scalp acupuncture really works so fast in a way that is not only changing the pain, okay, or healing the pain, but it actually can treat many complicated conditions. So, I started to include include scalp acupuncture into my practice and then time passes so fast.
It's already 17 years.
So, every day I was using scalp acupuncture and I found out in my clinical practice, I minimized a lot of the herbal medicine I used to use, you know, I need to use in order to treat some of the complicated disease in my clinic. Just by using scalp acupuncture, I already can can treat many complicated cases and I felt I feel like I can controls what I wanted to do. Because because sometimes when I prescribe herbs to the patient either for serious conditions, I give them like a bowl herbs and then either they they overcooked and then or they don't like the taste is very nasty and they don't want and then any little symptoms come out in their lives and they just found out that oh, you know, after I drink my herbs, I feel vomit I like to vomit or and then it suddenly I break break out with agony or something. You come up with a lot of different symptoms that is unrelated to the herbs that we prescribed.
So, I decided to slowly minimize of of my herbal treatments to my for my patients and then increases the acupuncture treatments. So, then I found out wow, it's still pretty good. The effect is still pretty pretty decent. So, then then slowly I change my my bowl herbs practice into powder herbs. So, a lot of the complicated cases instead of I need to prescribe herbal formulas and then let them go to the herbal stores to to to refill it, I just need to use powder herbs and it still can reach the levels with together with scalp acupuncture and my acupuncture treatment and it still can reach the level that I want by just by using the cook herbs.
Yeah. So, among all the patients they take herbs and together with acupuncture, 80% are powder formulas and only 20% are using the cook herbs. That was a fascinating you know results that I really happy with my own practice because it's much easier to distribute the powder herbs and and then I use formula plus formula and then plus some of the the the single herbs that that that that fine tunes into the particular patient's conditions and it's already can work up to the levels that in the just like giving them the cook herbs.
So, I use channel theory, you know, the channel theory from Huangdi Neijing. I make all my students memorize them and make sure that you understand every little things.
So, even though you don't understand exactly why the symptoms are there, you have to memorize it and one day you'll find the patient. So, I'm teaching channel theories in Five Branches University. And also by understanding the the channel theory and plucking the five shoe points with the five elements.
And I apply the ancient TCM circular movements into my practice including how to direct my Fang style scalp scalp acupuncture. So, even though today we don't have time to share too much about how I compose the structures to manipulate the qi and blood in certain organs. So, we actually can use Fang style acupuncture not only to treat parts and inform I mean the blood flows into the limbs, but we can also alternate the blood flows into certain organs and it can be immediately detected by your tongue and by your pulse.
So, most of my patient after the scalp acupuncture treatments, their pulse are totally changed. Even recently I started to look into the patient's tongue because I was working on a a project about collecting all the little thing you know, features that we can detect in the tongue and then trying to trying to map them, you know, into the computer. So, then I found out wow, after the scalp acupuncture, the tongue can change immediately, too.
So, I would I will share with some of the pictures that I I I observed recently and then you will see in your slides. So, are we are talking about that channel theory?
And if you looking into the channel theory, all the classic channels are with uh names that associate with associate with the element, associate with the six channel theories on the Shang Han Lun.
So, I'm also taught a class about how to map the Shang Han Lun six channel together with the six channels that we use every day in the acupuncture treatments. And then it's definitely 100% matches with the five six team.
It's corre- correlated to the weather.
Like for example, this year is 2026 is a year of too much water. So, you see a lot of edema patients that come into your clinic, and people who already have like weak heart, and also also a lot of the patient who have weak kidneys, you start seeing them showing up in your clinic. So, six five in six T, five in is five match with five element. The six T is matching with the Shang Han Lun six channels. Together with the Zang Fu theory you learn in the school, plus pulse diagnosis and tongue diagnosis, you have a very complete systems that can help you to diagnosis the problem with the root of the problems instead of chasing after all the symptoms.
And then once you have this complete theories, you just feel like every day in the clinic you are so excited.
Because you will know what you're doing, and patient really feedbacks to you by changing their symptoms.
Sometimes it's just in front of your eyes.
Yeah.
One of the tools I use is Fung's scalp acupuncture, and I use five shoe points mainly in my clinic. I use holographic systems, mirror imaging, by using points that actually are not are the problems is not you know, on the channels. Yeah. So, we know that we only have 12 channels, and 12 channels have its own passageway. But somehow patients are coming to a places that they have a pain that is not right on the channels. What are you going to tackle those areas? So, in the Fung style, it's not only the scalp acupuncture, it's a micro system. So, in the Fung scalp Fung acupuncture micro system, we further differentiate the 12 channel into 20 20 bands, energy bands. What do you mean 20 energy bands? Means like everything finger have its own lines.
Every finger have its own lines. So, you have a yin, and you also have yang. So, they are all connected, and then they have energy bands that work almost similar to the 12 channels.
But the 12 channels directly connected directly connected to the each organs.
But the 20 energy bands, they are like in working in the fascia level, and they shift for my understanding is that they shift all the 12 channels resources to each other by involving the eight confidential, you know, eight extra meridians. So, then you can shift the chi and blood around to cover the area that is not being covered by the 12 channels. So, that is in the micro systems. So, hopefully one day in the future we can share this 12 band systems with all of you, and then that will make your uh clinical practice more um more fun. Because um that definitely will set us apart from PT dry needles.
Because we use distal.
Distal point is more powerful than local system. I always tell my students, don't punish the places already have problems.
If you put needles on the local area when they have already pain, then there's no way you can explain yourself well to what happened if the patient tell you that after your treatment my pain is aggravated, right? So, with a new doctor, if you are just new in in the in in your career, have to be very careful, you know, with your practice.
And at the minimum, we don't make patient become even worse. That's it.
Don't don't even talk about we make them feel better. But the minimum is that we cannot make them feel worse. So, distal point is much safer. And then when patient come with like, "Oh, after last treatment then I get worse." You can tell them, "Nope, I didn't do any points on the places you are pain." Then you have a better way to explain. But of course, acupuncture is very minimal damages to the locations. And specially for some of the times I I I I treat like uh amputation or or you know, patients with with diabetic foot ulcerations because of diabetic, you know, conditions. Yeah, I sometimes also choose to put local points. But you have to be very careful at where stage you are at. At very beginning stage when you are still building up your circulation in the local area, please do not put any local points around the wounds. But once you start seeing that the wounds start closing, and then the infrastructure, which is the circulation is already been built up, that's the best time you can see. If there's something is re- stay there for too long and not moving around, and maybe you can choose to to choose some local points. But definitely you have to understand what is the embedded conditions, and make sure that you do it safely without getting involved with some medical you know, lawsuit.
So, and uh one more thing is like I'm a Tai Chi lover. So, I practice Tai Chi every day, and then I encrypted my Tai Chi standing meditations into my practice with acupuncture. Specially sometimes I do scalp acupuncture and immediately ask the patient to move certain limbs, especially moving the limbs where they have problems. And once you insert a needle, the pain's going away.
Wow.
What at that moment they increases the face of themselves. Like, "Oh, actually this this problem can really get better."
By making them believe they can get better, you cut your work load to more than half.
Most of the time patient don't get better. It's not because they cannot get better. It's because they don't believe they can get better.
So, how do you make them believe?
You know, immediate result is really crucial.
Means like right after you you you come you give them the treatments, they already all and then you start to Okay, now you can move your shoulder a little bit and see how do you feel. And then when they start moving around say, "Oh, wow. It's getting better. Oh, yeah."
Then right there, they become your customer sometimes for the rest of their life, or they will become the believers of acupuncture. When they believed, they follow you. When they believe, not only they their diseases follow you, their mind follows you. When their mind follows you, they are on the way of recovery. So, Tai Chi movements help to direct when we Everybody know here is that when you E, E is your intention. When the E is there, the Chi is already there. When the E and the Chi are aligned together, they direct the Chi to the places that you want them to be.
So, we some movements together that they reinforces the right direction of the Chi flow.
And because of that, they will prolongs, you know, the the efficacy.
Your results will become longer. And and then there's you can give some things that the patient can go home and follow.
So, I tell my patients say, you know, after you go home, and then you can do this practice. So, we are in the team. I help you, you help me. You know, I help you to dump the trash, and you help yourselves to dump trash less.
So, if you start learning how to dump the trash less, and I help you to clean faster, then you will see the dramatic improvement.
So, Tai Chi standing meditation, and then the Tai Chi movements, Chi Gong movements is very crucial together with the treatment. That's how I practice.
And hopefully I can believe a lot of you already practice this way. So, um I'll be really love to share my experience with you. And if you have any questions, please put it on the uh the the chat or the the Q&A sections, and I'll be happy to answer questions for you.
So, up until now, last years I already using it's probably approximately of uh 110,000 patients that I have treated uh with the scalp acupuncture.
And why learning scalp acupuncture? It's very quick, okay? Uh it it part and then and then and it produce a very rapid clinical response. So, then immediately after your treatments, you can already ask the patient to move their backs, move their shoulder, move their elbows, and see how do you feel. Do you feel better? And it's very gentle and very light. Means that scalp acupuncture are on the scalp.
There's not much of uh of of a nerve systems around there As far as compared to some of the um the other microsystems, you probably need to needle at the places where it's very sensitive like your tip of your fingers. And then and then also um you know, more distal, more powerful, right? So, if you you can use this one finger to treat your shoulder. So, this is first joint, you can use this joints to treat your elbow. You use this to treat your ankle. You can use this joints to treat your shoulder. But, you have to be very very fast. And then that's why a lot of my students, they're not afraid of using distal points because once you start practicing the scalp acupuncture every day so many times, you're doing this flying needle techniques. Even you do the very sensitive spots, it's also um very painless.
But, a lot of the a lot of a lot of my students, they cannot do freehand. That's why they have to use tapping. If you tap, then sometimes you don't you you have to it's pretty hard to adjust the how much, you know, you need to tap into, right? Into the joints. Then sometimes it cause pain.
But, if you put needles on the scalp, then it's pretty it's pretty safe and also it's pretty painless. So, very light flying. And so, that's why a lot of uh I also have a lot of little girls and little boys. It's like uh I I have uh probably about 5% of my patients are are uh pediatric patients. I treat various about like common cold, allergies, eczema, asthma. And then um and then I have many patients they were like babies when they were my patients. And now they're already married and having kids and their kids are becoming my patients.
So, so it's quite especially for pediatric. My goodness, they response like miracles.
Kids, their channels are wide open because there's less emotional that affects the organs. So, it's very it's very quick that you can see improvement for pediatric.
And one thing I wanted to talk about, if you wanted to experience quick relief from Fang's scalp acupuncture, precise is number one.
Number one.
Very very important. If you are off, then I cannot I cannot say anything, you know? Because precise is the reason why Fang's scalp acupuncture works so well.
Then then how do we make this whole holographic system so precise? It's because we med we are the measurement is coming from suture line. It's coming from suture, cranial suture landmarks. It's totally different than any other scalp acupuncture system. Other scalp acupuncture system, usually they they they they measure everything by identifying where is the Du 20.
Right? So, if you And then how do you identify Du 20? It's by right the apex of the ear. But, you have to realize the apex of the ear can shift almost 5 to 10 5 to 6 cm.
Depends on how you position your chin.
So, if you position your chin like you elevate it, your chin, then your Du 20 will become too you know, too much to the front, almost 5 cm.
But, most of the people is very hard for them to tuck in the chin. And when you're tucking the chin, that's the position of Wuji stand, Taiji Taiji Taiji standing meditation. We teach people to stand in the Wuji stand. So, Wuji is actually tucking the chin. So, then you will see a big hole on top of your your head. That is the places where is your Du 20 is. So, if you're using Fang's scalp acupuncture, then you don't need to worry about where you position your patient's head. You're going to use the suture line to identify where is the Du 20. So, I'm going to teach everybody to to do Du 20 correctly with, you know, the holographic systems identify them by suture line.
Precise. Once you get the points precisely, then everything else will just come into uh um um existence. So, precise and accuracy is very important. It dictates how much how much effectiveness you can come to Fang's scalp acupuncture.
And children friendly, then you already seen this three little kids there. And then a lot of my patients are are are just want scalp acupuncture. But, I have to tell them to say, you know, scalp acupuncture activated your central government. Our brain is our central government. When their central government already changed the way how they administrate your body, you better let your local government follow with it. So, how do you send the signal faster to your local government? So, you still need to use body needles. But, in my practice, I make I I minimized dramatically with my local acupuncture points. And then and then and then a lot of the patient don't like the body needles. They don't like that being the feeling of being stimulated. So, like that that that kind of feeling, they don't like it. So, sometimes they say, "Okay, I just want a scalp acupuncture."
If they really want that, okay, fine.
So, just tell them, you know, your local government takes a little bit longer time to get into, right? And and then but still works pretty well. So, I see there's a two questions. I have a lot of a young energy in my a lot of a young energy in my head in general. I avoid doing scalp points in gen- in general because it gives me a headache unless I ground with liver three. Do you find that happens with patients? No.
No. Yeah, I think the reason why um uh there's too much young energy uh is because of sensitivity. Um we the there's many points that we can kind of sedate or or make them, you know, come down and then direct the qi going down.
Yeah. So, so I haven't find any people body who don't like scalp acupuncture, but they do have someone who who are um who who are sensitive. After they come back, they're trying to take a break.
Yes, there is. But, uh this is one thing that you need to learn how to set up your patient for success.
Setting up patient for success is a lot of the in materials I already talked just 5 minutes. My the 5 minutes of my conversation with all of you is to set up the patient for success.
Like a lot of I will start with my my conversation say, "Oh, have this is the first time you try a scalp acupuncture or is this the first time you start with acupuncture treatments?" And they say, "Oh, yeah, this is my first time." And then I started saying, "Do you know that my youngest patient give me an envelope the when my youngest patient >> [laughter] >> in my in my office." And they say, Sometimes they cannot answer because they feel like all the kids don't like needles, right? You know? And I say, "You know, okay. You know, my youngest patient is 3 months old."
You know? You know like 3 months old, right? This this area may not be closed yet, right? We call the CS points where the sagittal suture meet with the coronal suture. So, you have to be careful not needling that area. But, then in the back is already covered. And and then you still can use scalp acupuncture, but you have to use very fine needles, okay? And then when they see the three 3 months old, then immediately they feel, "Oh, really?" And And then sometimes I have some little patients. Sometimes I needle their head and they're running running around in my office. I say, "Look at that one."
I say, "Do you know how old is he? How old is she?" So, that that that that kind of set up the "Oh, if the kids can do it, I can do it, too." So, this is called set up the patient for for success. So, so the head is very safe because, you know, it's have a very strong bone that covers, you know, protects our brain. It doesn't go anywhere. So, we we're just tapping. So, I sometimes I'll use my fingertips and then I just tap like this.
Is this okay with you?
Right? He say, "Oh, yeah, it's fine."
And then yeah, you won't feel more than that.
Yeah, that's that's basically how I how I can answer the the patient. And another one is that I treated my son for several years to get rid of the asthma using body acupuncture. He still suffer from time to time from chronic sinuses.
Oh, okay. What a protocol would you suggest? He is 12 years old. Yeah.
Yeah. The the the the picture right here.
This is this this is for allergy and sinus.
Um but of course you have to you have to measure it carefully and then I uh and then uh I probably cannot covered for this class. Then hopefully if you guys are wanting to know more like pediatric treatment, please uh please please uh send the um the request for eLotus and I'll be very happy to share with you or maybe it would be a better if it's a there's a hands-on situations say hands-on class.
So it would be better for for for make sure everybody is doing correctly. So precise is very important and also flying needle technique is also very important to minimize any un in um uncomfortable uh feelings during the the insertion of the needle. But looking at this three happy face, I believe that they're happy and then they're not [laughter] they're they're not worried about the needles on the head. Okay?
Yeah, Dr. Sue, I just wanted to jump in really quick. Uh-huh. Let everyone know that uh for more resources, you do offer a lot of classes on your own website tcmupmethod and you also have a book coming out as well. Um maybe later you can share more about that so the audience um can learn more about Fung's scalp scalp acupuncture as well. Sure.
Sure. We'll do that at the end of the class. Okay?
What specialty means tai chi stand meditation? Uh uh okay, tai chi stand meditation is um meditation that you put yourself. Okay, I'll put very simple words.
Tai chi meditation standing meditation is you stand yourself in a way you align all the bones. Okay? And then you just use your bone structure to stand.
And shut down every muscles.
So it's almost like a like a brick. I don't have any examples like for this one and everybody can can see this one.
Mhm?
See?
Just imagine this is your vertebrae and I put this right on top of it. See? They stand.
This is the goal of tai chi stand.
So we actually trying to position our bones so they can stack on top of each other and train yourself to relax and shut down every muscle. So we say all the muscle are hanging on your bone structure like a clothes on the clothes hanger.
So when you do that then you are training yourself and make connection of every muscles in your body.
And then you can say relax and then your body will learn how to relax. So so we use that because once they are relaxed after the scalp acupuncture a lot of the patient don't even know what is relaxed.
You believe me or not.
Then sometimes even interpretating relaxed as as like I'm very tired.
So means like they always tense up themselves and try to perform. So for this you have to tell patient say, "Hey, you know, after the needle, do you feel this is new you? This is a This is a how do you feel? What is relaxed mean?
You probably haven't feel relaxed for long time.
So this is actually happen in only within probably 30 seconds.
The the dramatic difference will make good impressions in them. It's totally different than massage.
Because massage is a process and then they are really put themselves in the relaxed situation. They cannot move. If they move, they will they still have the feelings of a stress because it takes a while to really use massage to release someone. But sc- scalp needle immediately the nerves they they they they just they just reset and then you ask the patient to move their limbs, they'll feel a huge difference. And then I'm on top and say, "Okay, now don't contract your muscle and see if you just hang there."
And then feel that your muscle become longer and longer and longer and then put them into tai chi stand stations uh uh situations then it's it's a it's a enhancement. It's a enhancement of everything.
Um is that hopefully that answer your question. My patient has uh plaque psoriasis and due to autoimmune problems. So how tall how how how do I read that? Okay, so plaque uh psoriasis is a lot of the levels is related to mental stress.
If it becomes uh uh if the plaques is with pus inside, you remove dampness. If there's no pus inside, it's usually caused me by minister fire.
Scalp acupuncture drop the minister fire so fast and it's almost like shifting from sympathetic nerves in charge into parasympathetic nerves in charge.
When you constantly putting the patient into the parasympathetics in charge, they enter into the mode of rest and digest. That's one way in China to treat psoriasis is put them into anesthesia and make them sleep for 7 days.
Then everything clears up.
But that's too dramatic.
So we can use scalp acupuncture to treat autoimmune disease like plaque psoriasis. But I have to tell you it's very difficult. Why? It's not because of your acupuncture is not working, it's because the person's mind don't cannot change or the situation is continuously stimulating. So that's the time you have to really find out a solution by changing the way how they interpretate their situations. Together with your with your treatment, they will surely see the improvement.
Um and there's one patient one one student when I found challenging to needle with precise with patients with long and thick hair. And how do you deal with that? Okay.
Scalp uh Fung's Fung's style is needling perpendicular.
And you're shooting the needle like a bullet.
So there's no you don't need to worry about the the hair.
Okay, I'll talk about the needles uh and uh instruction today give us information about how to approach patients with Parkinson's disease. Okay, so I will I will see if I have time to talk about Parkinson's disease. And um because the information is a lot. I'm I'm I actually a little bit too ambitious. Like I think I put too much information in the slides already. Let's see how much I can finish first then I'll answer all those questions. If I forgot, please remind me later.
Okay?
Is everybody okay with with the pace of the class?
Everybody uh excited?
>> [laughter] >> Yes, this class is amazing so far. Okay, let's see. All right, let's continue.
Mhm.
Oh.
I just go quickly go through some of the cases that I found that this is a breast cancer after 3 weeks from this all the way to heal. Okay?
And and this is rheumatoid arthritis without all the pictures I put here is acupuncture only without herbs.
Or some of them are using powder herbs.
But here are all acupuncture without herbs because a lot of the the Americans are afraid of drug to drug interactions.
Okay? So Yeah, and this is this is quite amazing.
This is a swimmer and he have this rheumatoid arthritis in 2 days. I actually see this June 20, 2018 and June 22nd, 2018. And the swollen just gone down dramatically. That's how fast it is.
And then asthma 40 years. Okay, this is a patient of mine. So from February 7th to March 4th, it's probably a little bit over Is it over? Oh, yeah. It's a little bit less than a month and everything clear up and then she disappear on me.
When she come back, you know, and she was coming back for another problem.
Say, "Hey, how's your hands?" So this one October 18, 2017 so I and I took another picture. No relapse. 40 years of the eczema is gone.
Yeah, but she she become I I actually talked to her a lot and then I found out a lot of the problems because she have a husband. She have the husband went through the novel war.
Okay? Because of that he has the uh the post-trauma. Right?
And uh and then that and she she need to take care of him.
That causes these problems.
well, eventually her husband become my patient and see she see a big improvement together with the treatments, right? Then situation change, believe increased, and then eczema is gone. You know, you have we after 20 years of practice, I found out skin issue is very much related to emotion.
Emotion is a feeling.
Emotion is a feeling. So, so, so, what organs can make you feel?
Feel the world.
Students, what can make you feel the world? What organs can make you feel?
You know, the the Well, first, that's Yeah. So, this is a Chinese organ.
I'm talking about the Western organ.
It's actually your skin. It's the first contact of touch.
The senses, right? How do you feel this is hot? How do you feel this is cold, right? You use your hands to feel.
Sometimes we also use our mouths to feel by tasting it. You see that when the little baby, they start growing up, right? They want to increase this The first of all, they use their hands to touch. Later, they put everything into their mouths to taste.
So, touch and taste is delivered delivered later in their lives. So, skin issues is very much related to emotion.
Very much. So, a lot of the reason why you have this scratch is like you're feeling you you're existent.
Or you feel like you're carrying yourself. So, then without resolving the issues of your emotional, sometimes chronic skin issues is really hard to recover. Really hard to recover. And then same thing.
Autoimmune disease. People who have autoimmune disease always something happens in their life.
Suddenly get divorced, being dumped, right? Can And then then and then, you know, they they they then they break out. The the the because they are getting themselves into a tremendous flying fight situation. They were trying to guard them They can try to guard themselves and try to fight, you know, to the environment.
So, all these things that happened to because of um because of the emotion. So, guess what?
We can use the scalp acupunctures to temporarily give them a relief, reset their flying fight mechanisms. And um definitely you will start to see a interesting phenomenon in your clinic.
You see people are started to getting you getting faster improvements.
And uh this is a cellulitis 98 years old. The patient don't wanted to go take antibiotics anymore, and then it gets better after 2 months of treatments.
And uh this is diabetic foot. This is one of the things that I I say that it actually can you can still doing local points if you see that the wounds are start covering. This patient have this wounds for almost 3 years. Her dog His daughter is a MD.
So, um I I will see that in from July to November, that was about 4 months. And then I actually have a totally close-up pictures. And after 2 years later, he came back with another problems.
And and this is another diabetic foot for 5 months.
And it's totally healed actually after five 5 months in December 21st. And then this patient is doing pretty well.
Diabetic foot for 2 months. And and then the reason why I put a lot of diabetic foot is that I This is one of the the problems that um that you don't want it to put local needles.
Yeah. So, perfect.
We just use scalp.
In the very beginning, I just use scalp.
And and then it it it it goes heals very fast. Yeah, so from scalp acupuncture immediately clinical changes. He is actually the pulse will change. There's a lot of you who who are diagnosis patient with pulse taking, which I do every day. I usually don't ask the patient that I tell patient what they have. That's actually improve their face a lot, too. Because they believe they feel like, "Oh, this doctor understand me."
They know more than I know.
I I I They This doctor knows more than I know myself. So, immediately they just want to follow your treatments. And then tongue shape and colors is one thing that you can also share with your patient.
Right? So, if you you if you take the picture of the tongue, look at that.
Your tongue was like this, and I tell you why this tongue is looking bad.
Yeah. And now look at your tongue right now. Wow, look at it. You know, increases their face of your treatments.
So, so, before I used [clears throat] tongue diagnosis only for the purpose of prescribing herbs. During COVID 5 years, I used a lot of telemedicines with some of the patient that they found me all over the world. So, I only can use tongue diagnosis. That's time That's the time I fasten up my speed of of of how to diagnosis the tongue. So, I taught a tongue diagnosis class just 2 weeks 2 months ago. And and then the tongue tells you everything [clears throat] about your body. It's just a holographic system again.
So, so, because of the I have to thank Dr. Fang because the Fang style, and then I totally merge into the the the the holographic system. And then and then it's totally match with either Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine. Even I taught a class with how to understand the Master Tung's points by using scalp acupuncture. Because I keep on being asked by some of my students when they are following me in my clinic. He said, "Dr. Chi, are you using Fang style the the the Master Tung's points?" I say, "No, I didn't use Master Tung's points." And then he says that, "Oh, then then it looks like it." Then then I realized that, "Oh, yeah, maybe there's a lot of things about tongue and the Master Tung's style that matches with the holographic system." So, I look into the all the points, and I already taught two classes. But but I'm not directly following with any tongue style doctors. But just by looking at into the holographic systems, and you know what?
A lot of our body needles, body channel systems, they are also holographic system. The way how they name it, if you know how the name that they they the the and the ancestor named it, you know that this is holographic.
So, so, then style of the scalp acupuncture is mainly on on the on the the the holographic systems. Once you understand this, that you will definitely increases your ability of understanding other systems who are falls into the holographic system.
So, recently I'm going to do a presentations in the Switzerland. I'm preparing myself, so I was collecting a lot of my datas in my clinic. And this is The pain intensity was evaluated immediately before and after Fang style acupuncture.
And then I asked the patient that what's the pain level from 0 to 10. And then I asked them before and after. So, I already collected about 101 clinical cases currently. The the media pain reduces was 80% and with 90% of patient demonstrating clinical meaningful improvement immediately following the treatments.
So, so, this is wonderful that I can have a chance to share all of you.
And this is the tongue diagnosis. So, you see that this is the time 2026 April 14th, 9:00, right? 9:28 a.m. And this is just night 33. You see that this tongue is totally changed. Look almost looks like a different person. Currently, I'm still trying to find out the way how to change the color adjust. But I will tell you this is exactly the same iPad, exactly the same seat. Maybe the sun rises even more in the morning. So, color slightly a little bit change, but you can see that the shape is totally changed. So, this area of the tongue is your upper shoulder. So, this is this is the vertebrae.
So, you can see that this pulse muscle around the shoulder is totally tense up after the acupuncture then it's relaxed.
Okay?
And and then next one.
Oh, let me see.
Right? And this is another patient with water retention. Very puffy, swollen, right? And then right after the the the the the tongue the the acupuncture, right? It's about it's about 15 minutes later, okay?
Then the water retention reduced. The part The color returns. The puffiness goes away.
This is a This is a post-surgery pancreatic cancer patients. You see that this is the pancreatic area.
You know, before it was very swollen.
So, after you remove half of the pancreas, so then this the hole start to show here.
And then after the acupuncture, somehow the body start to fill that emptiness I don't know what they feel, but I treat it.
See, everything fills up. Even the cracks disappear.
Even the cracks disappear. Amazing. I just feel like, "Wow."
This is not how amazing I am. It's how amazing our body is.
You know this fundamental I was spending a time to explain I have a lot I have couple MDs in my clinics. I spend time to talk to them, but they can walk into my office because some of them already referred by their own patient because they know how difficult their patient is. And they got better, so then they refer patients to me. So, I I told them the fundamental difference is that traditional Chinese medicine believe every symptoms that happen in the body is meant for good.
If your blood pressure goes high, it's because your body is trying to adjust something.
But in the western medicine, most of the time they feel like there's something wrong with you.
Which is true.
But they think a high blood pressure is wrong.
So, they trying to push the blood pressure down.
Right? But we believe that high blood pressure is good because this is the body's self-executing mechanism activating.
Unless they take care what they want to take care, they will not give up.
If you just trying to push down the blood pressure, you're going to end up with two medication. And after a while, your body still choose. They will not give up. They want to rescue you. That they are hard programmed to do so.
They're so good of doing it. Thinking about how many toxins we put in into our body, we're still alive. Right?
Their job is to keep you alive.
So, if their job is to keep you alive, let's honor our body.
Right? This body is our body.
You honor them. Something wrong with your body, they're trying to correct it for you. Let's help the body to fix what it's supposed to help instead of just trying to suppress it.
That's why if you trying to suppress it, you don't know how to treat autoimmune disease. If you try to suppress it, you don't know how to treat skin disease. If you start to suppress, you don't even know how to treat acid reflux.
Acid reflux is meant for good.
You have to understand why your body decided to do so. And you help them as a good body, right? Support your body.
Support it, then they go back to normal. So, there is a way to help the body to recover faster.
That's what we do. We don't suppress the body. So, it in the way that you see that the body responds so fast. So fast because you are you are you are supporting them. So, then you see the improvement because of you are following the same flow.
When we are treating the diseases, it's like sowing a in a sea, right? The wind blow to the west, you don't want you want to go to the west to get the wind. You don't want to go against it. Right? If you go against it, then of course, that's what Chinese Chinese said, right?
Means that if you follow the heaven, you prosper prosper, right? If you If you go against the heaven, then you die early.
Who can win Who can win the universe?
Nobody. We only can follow.
But we follow in the way that we know that's the right way to direct. It's not like, "Oh, I don't want to do anything.
I just collapse. Whatever." Then that's not the right attitude.
So, we have to encourage the patient to get that energy out of their body. Then together with your treatments, they will see recovery super fast.
Am I over my time?
>> [laughter] >> It's okay. No strict No strict time.
Whenever >> Let's Let's finish the tongue, then we take a short break. How's that? Okay.
So, this is also another tongue. So, look at this tongue. You already see that this side of shoulder is very tight, right? Neck and shoulder and arm pain right side thumb all the way to the thumb. So, this all area have become See this This This supposed to circle like this, right? But then this this piece are missing. So, by looking at the tongue, you already tell, "Oh, your right neck and shoulder and all the way to the arm have some issue."
Right? So, 135 142. See, this side start to filled up.
After they filled up, you know that there's some embedded issues showing up.
You see this two layers.
This tongue become two layers.
That's the reason why have this conditions are not being filled because the liver in deficiency. This side we know everybody know that this side is diagnosis the yin, right? Of the liver.
So, if you see start seeing two layers, then you know like liver yin deficient, then cannot cannot, you know, control the liver yin yang. So, liver yin yang all go the way to stick up to the top.
And then lung qi is not able, right? To to come to to control and balance with the liver. So, that's why this side of the tissue become kind of like flat and no qi inside. This side is a little bit bulging.
So, this is This is then once you treat the local points, local parts by relaxes the muscle in the neck and shoulder, then if you want your neck and shoulder to continuously improve and never come back, you have to treat embedded problem of liver yin deficiency. Then you will start seeing the the the real results.
Okay. Let's take a 15 minutes of break and we'll come back and then let's let's dive into the in the the the found scalp acupuncture.
How's that? We'll come back Can Can we Can we set up the time for everybody?
Yeah. So, we can come back at 9:25.
Okay.
So, I'll see you guys later.
All right. Thank you, Dr. Chi.
Recording stopped.
