Can you open your hands?
This one is only...
Open your fingers, like this?
I can't.
No, close?
Close.
No.
No?
If I go like this, I can close.
Can you raise your arm?
Yeah, okay.
Only the hands, right?
Yeah, only the hands.
Okay.
And then you cannot open your fingers, you cannot close.
Make a fist.
Make a fist?
No, this one.
Together, together.
Yeah, this one is okay.
Okay.
This one is...
Try to hold my hand, finger.
Try.
Stronger.
Like that.
Okay.
You should continue.
Last time, after you treated, and then you disappeared on me.
I know.
Ah, what's going on?
It's so far.
We live in Vallejo.
Oh, you're from Vallejo too?
Yeah, I know.
Oh, I have four patients from Vallejo now.
Oh, is that right?
Oh my goodness.
Oh, yeah.
Now we're getting Vallejo patients.
I know, it's like...
Let me help you, huh?
Do you think the pain will recover now?
Of course.
Okay, yay.
Relax, huh?
Try one more time, okay?
And try to hold my hands right now.
Finger, try to push.
I know.
Okay.
Close your finger.
Try to hold my finger as much as you can.
Don't help.
Move.
Close.
Good.
Better.
Open.
Oh, your thumb.
Good.
Open your finger.
Open.
Together.
Both hands.
Open.
Okay?
And then try to close one more time.
Close.
Hold.
Yes.
Wow, it closed.
Yeah.
It's coming back now.
Yes.
Very good.
Okay, when I say one, two, three, you're going to close very fast to my finger.
Okay?
One, two, three.
Close.
There you go.
Good.
More.
There's a grip.
More.
Yes.
See?
Yeah.
Hold it.
Hold my finger.
Yeah.
There.
There's a grip.
There you go, Nhi.
Yay.
Wow.
Yes.
Wonderful.
See?
Doing good.
Let go.
Good.
Hold it more.
Stronger.
Yes.
Stronger.
Oh, there's a grip now.
Praise the Lord.
Amen.
That's only one treatment.
It's only five minutes maybe.
Not even five minutes.
Yeah.
Very good.
Okay?
Yeah.
Wow.
See?
You're holding my finger now.
Wow.
I want to open it here.
Open.
Relax.
To be patient, honey.
It's not a one-time thing, so.
Yeah.
You have to come faithfully, okay?
Faithfully.
Yeah.
Okay.
Open.
Relax.
Open.
Yes.
Do it together, okay?
When you say one, two, three, you're going to bring two hands together very fast.
One, two, three.
Go.
Yeah.
Oh my goodness.
Hold it.
More.
Stronger.
That's the way you're going.
Oh, good.
You got it.
Wow.
Praise the Lord.
Yeah.
Okay.
So go home and then do this exercise.
This is passive.
So that's why scalp acupuncture actually can make the connection.
Sending signal to the places where you have head problems and it build up the circulation
in the brain.
Oh, good.
Good.
Oh my goodness.
Look at that knee.
Yeah.
Can you slowly open left and right?
Slowly open your...
There you go, knees.
Your left.
Slowly open your left.
It's okay.
Together.
Together knee.
Together.
Now you have to do together.
Together.
And then you have to remind...
Don't forget about what happened before.
Okay?
Yeah.
Rebuild the circulations and the connections between your brain, inside your brain.
Okay?
Say one, two, three.
Close your hands together.
One, two, three.
Close.
Oh, shoot.
There you go.
But this one is hard to open.
Yeah.
It's a little knee because you don't know how to relax.
When you relax, you can open.
Yeah, see?
You can pull me now.
Yeah.
You got cheated by your accomplishment.
When you look at it and you lost your face and you thought that this is reality.
No.
Things are happening in your brain.
It just takes a little while because you get a little damage after stroke.
Very good.
See?
Very good.
