Diagnostic
Uses of Acutouch
One of the most exciting things about the acutouch is that it can
be used diagnostically. If you suspect an organ of being diseased
or a particular system of causing pain, you can use the acutouch
to elicit a reaction. If the system you are treating is non-reactive
then you need to re-asses your diagnosis, or you have not been accurate
in locating the specific treatment point.
A positive reaction will confirm your
diagnosis having found the anatomical reference point and finding
that there is little if any reaction, you can still work within
a cm radius of the anatomical reference point to try and elicit
the reaction that you are looking for. This will result in a far
quicker response to treatment for the patient.

Pain treatment
with Acutouch
Painful conditions that respond well to acutouch therapy include
-
Myofacial pain - trigger point approach to treatment.
-
Non-myofacial: nociceptive pain and visceral pain --- best approached
by segmental acupuncture.
-
Neurogenic pain - direct segmental stim may be effective but
this can often exacerbate the symptoms. In this case non-segmental
acupuncture is usually the best approach.
-
Acute or surgical pain - acupuncture used in addition to anesthesia
or sedation. Non-segmental approach is usually the best.
