Do you have all your notes? No?
No, but I mean, you can...
We're going to do frontalis first, okay?
So, this is a spray that's called Helichrysum.
This will help prevent any kind of bruising.
Hi, what's in it?
It's Helichrysum.
Oh, I don't know what that is.
I'll write it down for you, okay?
I have some samples for you guys, too.
I know you do.
So, you would do is dab it a little bit.
So, maybe I do you the face and then do somebody else the neck, right?
So, it won't be so much for you.
That sound good?
And I use needle her left side, so it won't be so much for her either, okay?
And then there.
Whoever you then practice with, then will be...
She's been lopsided.
No, so, okay, so...
I always use Saran needles, right?
You can use either the red one inch or the green one inch.
I also have half an inch, whatever is comfortable for you.
I usually use the one inch, okay?
And, of course, when somebody comes in, we're going to go through that all,
the treatment protocol.
But, obviously, today we're just going to show the different insertion
and origins of the muscles, okay?
Okay.
So, who can tell me the motor point for frontalis?
What point is that?
42.
Stomach 8.
Okay, so then you would just do like this.
So, this is frontalis.
12, letter 14.
The corrugator, UB2.
You all right?
Mm-hmm.
And then posterioris.
Sorry, you're probably not...
Mm-hmm.
That's the only one you need.
Mm-hmm, exactly.
You all right?
Yeah.
Okay, so then the levators, you can either do the V-tongue,
large intestine 19.
You have to get this groove here.
So, I'm going to do this.
Breathe in and out.
Then, to get the zygomaticus, you would pull the skin like this
and hook it to stomach 7.
And as you release the skin, it will come more forward, right?
Stomach 7 is still here, but I had it right here.
Then once you release the skin, it will come slightly forward.
So, then here's stomach 4.
Breathe in and out.
Then, of course, if you want the buccinator, here's the small intestine 18,
small intestine and a half, right?
That would be right in here.
So, you would then do right there.
So, with the tube, you're not tapping.
You're just using the tube to put in the right...
Pulling it out and then going.
I know you tap, but I don't tap.
I have a little twisting motion that it goes in.
So, it's not so abrupt?
No.
It is sensitive no matter what, right?
Then, mentalis.
Obviously, this is vent 24.
So, you could either go across like this on each side.
So, here we go.
Breathe in.
You could do tap a little bit like that.
Then, you do another one.
You would do it like this.
Okay, here we go. Breathe in.
You okay?
She's a trooper.
Normally, obviously, you wouldn't put so many needles in.
You would then select the specific points,
and I will give you also a sheet where the patient would draw in
where the wrinkles that they want to emphasize are.
Today, we're doing more than normal.
How many needles do you usually use on a treatment?
If they come and they say,
okay, I want to work on my whole face,
I choose either up or lower
because otherwise it becomes too much for them.
Then, if you want to do the extra point,
yang chang yang,
you would come out and you would do it like this.
Here we go. Breathe in and out.
Then, what I said about stomach five,
here is the little indention in the metomal bone.
You can feel it and you just slide down.
So, you go down and then here you go.
There.
So, obviously, you know, if you want to, I mean,
by you getting stomach four,
you're getting buccinator, you get also,
I mean, you can do the source,
which would be, you know, stomach six.
So, basically, that is the different insertion
and ordnance of the different muscles.
And I would then also do now neck, I think,
if we do it on somebody else.
But then, if you take the needles out,
you would wet it a little bit again.
You keep the needles in for about 20 minutes,
15 to 20 minutes.
If you were to treat the rest of the body
for their conditions, just to support the systems,
would you do the face needles first
and then needle the distal points,
or would you start with the body points?
You always do the body points first.
And then do the face.
And you take out the needles in the face first.
Any questions?
You know, I mean, you're familiar with the points.
It's just in the order of doing it.
You okay?
Yes, in fact, I feel three years younger.
That's good.
Kids, don't try this at home.
