The practice of acupuncture in combination with modern medicine has been a very blessed journey for our entire team. Not only have I experienced the joy of healing several cases that were termed as medical failures or hopeless but along way I experienced the marvel that acupuncture offers in terms of treatment. This led me to sharing some of my success stories hereYoung Doctor of 25 years had intractable pains nape of neck and arm, diagnosed as CERVICAL SPONDYLOSIS, no relief with medicines, no relief with traction and rest, came for Acupuncture treatment, full recovery with just 14 days treatment (1979) and no pains till date (2012).A 58 year old Hotel Manager having severe low back pain with lower limbs pain underwent SURGERY for disc no relief, underwent SECOND surgery no relief and finally underwent THIRD surgery but unfortunately no relief from pain and could not walk properly and then referred for Acupuncture treatment as a last chance, surprisingly pain relief more than 50% and started walking comfortably.A KSRTC conductor of 40 years having severe low back pain, had traction no relief, underwent surgery for disc but in vain, underwent second surgery but no relief at all, to add his misery , met with accident and was unable to walk, was about to get declared unfit for the job. Referred for Acupuncture treatment at this stage. Complete relief of pain with ability to attend routine work with Acupuncture treatment & now attending office work at KSRTC.A medical student had severe running nose with several bouts of sneezing /day, diagnosed as ALLERGIC RHINITIS at the age of 22 years (1972), treated with all available medicines including local steroid injections into the nose, but only short lived relief, treated with vaccines from U.K. for TWO years but again short lived relief. Finally, he TREATED HIMSELF (1981) with Acupuncture after learning it. Can you guess who he is? None other than DR VINAY VARMA himself, now enjoying life without Rhinitis and practicing ACUPUNCTURE successfully since 1979.

Acupuncture is one of the main forms of treatment in traditional Chinese medicine. It involves the use of sharp, thin needles that are inserted in the body at very specific points. This process will adjust and alter the body's energy flow into healthier patterns. Acupuncture is used to treat a wide variety of illnesses and health conditions.

Dr Thomas Mathew MD (Acu) D.Ac.T, DSM (Gold medalist), DNYS Who has got many years experience is the head of the department. This department gives relief for many people who are suffering form Asthma, Allergy, Back Pain, Paralysis etc.

Acu means needle, puncture means to prick or to penetrate. Acupuncture is one of the most ancient and characteristic techniques of Chinese medicine. From ancient times, this acupuncture technique was valuable in the treatment of both acute and chronic diseases. It was even practiced in the Stone Age with stone needles. The Eskimos still use sharpened stones for treating illness. In times of war, soldiers who were struck by arrows in certain parts of the body, found themselves cured of ailments in other parts of the body. So, curious persons started to wonder whether there was any relation between pricks on the skin surface and cure of the internal organ.

Over the past 2 years I have had the opportunity to assist a number of clients with their cancer treatments. Most of them have used acupuncture and herbal medicine as complementary therapies while they underwent conventional cancer care. I am happy to share with you my findings as a result of my experience working with them. As acupuncture and Chinese medicine gain credence in the West, they are increasingly being used in conjunction with conventional western medicine to treat a range of illnesses, including cancer. Acupuncture has received much attention for its use in cancer pain, and post-operative and chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting. The American Cancer Society has recommended its use for cancer and cancer-related symptoms like neuropathy, limb edema, and pain. Acupuncture can also help increase energy and appetite as it boosts immunity and relieves stress in patients undergoing cancer treatments. Cancer arises from abnormal changes in the genetic makeup of cells that causes the malignant cells to multiply uncontrollably. In Chinese medicine this is known as the Yin and Yang separating , in which the functional activity of the cell (Yang) loses touch with the intelligent guidance (Yin) of the cell s activity. In conventional medicine several factors are believed to trigger the cell mutations which cause cancer including genetic heredity, immune dysfunction, diet, extreme stress, hormone therapy, and environmental toxins. Common conventional cancer therapies include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, and hormone therapy. All these can be very helpful, but they also cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting, malaise, fatigue, neuropathies, decreased immune activity, lack of appetite, and post-surgical and other pain. The traditional Chinese medicine treatment of cancer is based on the principle of Fu Zheng Pei Ben. Fu Zheng therapy refers to supporting the Correct Qi of the body, and strengthening the Qi of the organs in order to fight disease. This is based on the belief that the body has the ability to help itself heal and to expel pathogenic influences. Fu Zheng therapy also helps to improve the body s organs ability, particularly the kidneys and liver, to detoxify and eliminate pathogens and toxins, such as the drugs used in chemotherapy. When combined with conventional cancer treatments, Fu Zheng therapy helps the conventional treatments work more effectively.

RECENT DEVELOPMENT

What is Acupuncture? Acupuncture is a system of medicine which is used in the restoration and maintenance of health and prevention of disease. It has been practiced in China and the Orient for at least 5000 years. Chinese medicine holds that any illness or symptom, whether traumatic (a broken finger, sprained ankle), a headache, addictions, indigestion, chronic (osteoporosis, arthritis, life), or emotional (depression, anxiety) is an imbalance in the person's energy. This energy, which makes a person run, is at the same time affecting physical and emotional areas. Acupuncture affects the whole person, and treatment is directed at relieving the cause of the problem, not just treating a symptom. Qi (pronounced chee in Chinese, kee in Japanese) is the name of this energy, and it travels in pathways known as channels or meridians from the surface of the body to very deep in the body. Meridians correspond to the vital organs such as heart, kidneys and liver. More correctly these are called "organ systems" which consist of more than the physical structure by which it is called. For example, the liver is not just the flat organ your upper stomach area, but is also all that it affects digestion, neck and shoulders, smooth flowing o both emotional and physical elements, visual acuity, hearing sensitivity, anger, depression, tendons, and ligaments. The nails can be used to tell the estate of the system. The liver is referred to as the "relaxed wanderer" which gives a picture of the way its energy should behave. Each of the 12 systems has its own set of qualities as the liver does. Each system can have too much or not enough energy, or its energy may be stuck or the wrong kind of energy. How are problems diagnosed? We can diagnose problems with the meridians by history, symptoms, thoughts, feelings, objective tests like x-rays and blood tests. The major traditional ways to diagnose is by special pulses on your wrists and abdominal palpation. We like to have a list of all medications, and sometimes we will ask for a diary of what you eat every day. To treat, extremely fine needles (sterile, single use) are inserted into special points along the meridians to regulate the flow of Qi. Sometimes a special type of heat is used in small areas, which is a burning herb called moxa. There are many techniques of manipulating the skin, ligaments and muscles to relieve discomfort. Lasers and electricity are used in the modern clinic for even better treatment results What does Acupuncture treat? The rule of thumb is that acupuncture can treat anything that has not caused gross organ changes. However, this is not a hard-fast rule. Usually anything that western medicine cannot treat well, Oriental Medicine does. Many problems may be corrected before drugs or surgery are necessary. Pre- and post- surgical treatments will increase healing, reduce anesthesia side effects. Oriental Medicine addresses quality of life health issues, which surgery or modern Western medicine cannot correct like Pain from long standing chronic types to acute injury, back and joint pain, Movement pain, adjunctive cancer/chemo pain and nausea. Stress and sleep disorders.
