🥺 Mental Health Acupuncture Points

These 6 acupuncture points are all Ghost points which means they address specific mental health issues.

ST 6: This point is perfect for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Patients with PTSD have tendency to clench their jaw, so ST 6 acts as a jaw relaxer as well.

BL 62: In clinical practice it is used for long standing childhood trauma related to sexual abuse, leading to anxiety and/or depression as an adult.

Li 11: this acupuncture point clears heat and balance the digestive system. It’s used for patient who like to be in control, and get diarrhea or suffers from IBS when they feel out of control.

PC 7: it is the protector of the heart, which makes it the perfect point to needle for those who are emotionally upset (broken hearted) after the break up of a relationship.

Lu 11: this acupuncture point is perfect, when a vow, contract, or an important agreement is broken, and anger results. Good during or after a nasty divorce, or a business partnership which goes sour.

REN 24: this is a great acupuncture point for people who are always worried and are consumed by their dark thoughts for years. They don’t ever smile or laugh.

👻 Sun Si Miao (who has also been called “The King of Medicine”) developed the 13 Ghost Points for the purpose of treating mental disorders such as schizophrenia, manic behaviour & neurological disorders such as Epilepsy.

👻 In clinical practice, these ghost points are also helpful, in helping patients with long standing emotional trauma that are difficult to overcome.

And of course my dog Boomer has to make an appearance 🐾🐾
