David Rosenbaum's Expert Contributions
What pressure point relieves shoulder pain?
Press on a point on the Large Intestine meridian (channel) that is easily found. Raise your arm on the affected side as though you are going to pull down a lever. (Think of Casy Jones the train conductor sounding a whistle).Next, find the depression on the edge of that shoulder and press down hard. The pain/stiffness should abate. This should even help “frozen shoulder “. However, if the rotater cuff is injured, you’ll need to see an MD or orthopedic doctor/surgeon for an evaluation! READ MORE

Is acupuncture effective for a sprained knee?
There are two points on either side of the patellar ligament (I meant to say both sides). These are called, Xiyan, which means “eyes of the knee”. Take your thumb and index finger and aim them like you mean for them to cross in the middle of the knee joint. Press. READ MORE
Can acupuncture help high blood pressure?
Hypertension is a very serious and perhaps even life-threatening condition. Don’t fool around. Western medicine has very effective drugs that control blood pressure. Don’t risk getting a stroke or heart attack. A word to the wise is sufficient. READ MORE
Is acupuncture good for sciatica?
Yes…The patient assumes a lateral, recumbent position with a gown on.(In other words, lying on one’s side). What the acupuncturist does next is likely to scare you so I’m not going into the details. READ MORE
How long does acupressure take to work?
The location of points on the ear must be accurate within 2mm or so. The easiest way to locate these points is by pressing until the most tender spot is located. Also, you’ll need to refer to a chart of points on the ear. READ MORE
