Our protocol for Muscular Dystrophy is listed below. We do use scalp and body points, but do not rely on scalp only acupuncture (our own bias).
We use a combination of strong tuina (massage) and medical qi gong (tong ren therapy, specifically) to start treatments, then use needling, and then finish with more tuina.
MD Treatment Points:
<ul>
<li>Huatuo of C1, C2, T1 (bone marrow/bone problems), and T2 (thymus gland)</li>
<li>Tiandong (extra point to effect the vertebral artery)</li>
<li>GB 19 - muscle/coordination issues</li>
<li>Also SI 16, GB 20, GV 22, BL 9, ST 36</li>
<li>Tuina would be SI 16, huatuo area of C1, C2, T1, T2 - qigong drawing energy from GV 20 bai hui down through C1, C2, T1, T2</li>
</ul>
