Tong Ren for PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy)?

Published on 02-10-2014


"bstott" - this is their first post.

HI There,

I am seeing a new client this week who is mainly interesting in recieving Tong Ren Therapy for a rare disease called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. It supposedly has some similar characteristics to Parkinson's Disease, however is not the same, and differs in a few key ways. (Here is a link to an informational website if more info is needed: http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/psp/detail_psp.htm )

I am wondering if anyone has thoughts on what points/areas might be most important for tapping. I've used Tong Ren a fair amount in my acupuncture practice, but haven't treated for this disease, nor have I actually ever worked with Parkinson's.

Many thanks,

Becca

You should start by reading an article I wrote for treating parkinson&#39s with tong ren and tuina. Everything in there would be directly applicable.
