Acupuncture
In the early 70’s I lived in Malaysia and I started to be interested in Acupuncture. I was amazed by the success of acupuncture given as the anaesthesia for major surgery, which was being successfully performed by placing acupuncture needles on some of the Meridians.
It was known to the West only to a selected few until that time, now there is an explosion of interest. Today acupuncture is one of the most popular and effective contemporary healing techniques, practised in almost every country. But what is new it is the way acupuncture is finding its way through the Beauty sector, Cosmetic healing.
I was taught acupressure by Marguerite Maury (the legendary pioneer of aromatherapy), which was similar to shiatsu as both techniques have a similarity with acupuncture. Acupressure involves pressing specific points on the meridians to stimulate or sedate the flow of vital energy in the body and using finger pressure only. In Cosmetic healing, acupuncture helps the blood flow in vital part of the face and is concern to bring energy back in those areas, using the needles on specific part of the face and neck, following the yang meridians.
Helping in case of bad circulation, loss of collagen, pale colour, lack of tone and texture and also dealing with wrinkles. It can be very helpful around menopause time and in case of premature ageing of the face.
The pathways of the meridians were first charted many thousands of years ago, but they have since been mapped and measured by modern technological methods. Yin meridians run from the toes upwards. Yang meridians run from the head and fingertips down to the toes.
The treatments can be obtained from different practitioners but the essential points to those treatments is to follow each session by using an application of Organic essential oils mixed in an organic base oil, well chosen and gently massage on certain part of the face after each session to maximize the effect of rejuvenation.
Look at my website for The Organic Essential oils and Base Oils for rejuvenation, and my ‘Youth & Beauty Pack’ is an important item to help those treatments.
