    Acupuncture Point Locators and Stimulators

    Does anyone own and use one of these units? While in school my instructor had one that was awesome, but I can not remember the name of it. I want to purchase one, but only if I know a particular model works.

    Two trigger point questions

    1) I often use a technique of holding moderate pressure on a trigger point for about 8 to 20 seconds, however long it takes for the client to feel like the pressure is decreasing... I have a new client that almost always reports a sensation of the pressure increasing. That is not how this...

    lymph node vs trigger point

    Okay, this is a silly question, but lately when working the neck on my clients, I often wonder if 'that big bump' is a trigger point or a lymph node. Is there a way to tell the difference? (I don't remember going over this in school.) I started to get worried when I noticed that most...

    Good trigger point atlas/text suggestion?

    I am looking for a really good/thorough atlas/text specifically on trigger points. Ideally, I would like it with a lot of easy to follow illustrations and to approach the issues from a physiological rather than energy/spiritual viewpoint. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

    Interesting point re: charging for massage

    Soooo, I know this topic's been brought up lots on this forum, but here it is again! wee! :roll: It still feels strange to me to consider setting a price for something I love to give for free, and it's especially hard for me to think of charging someone, even if he/she wants to spoil...

    What I don't get about Trigger Point Therapy

    hmmm....well, when I use the terminology "trigger point", I don't say the word "therapy" after it. HOWEVER, I do let the client know that I will be using some trigger point techniques on them if they have difficult knots that should be released.

    godamn why is it always `closed` as soon as someone makes a good point?

    Is there really any point for me to chat up women?

    Every time I've liked a girl, asked her out and all that they will always reject me. I've never been in the position where I've asked a girl out and she says "yes." I've only ever had one girlfriend in my life but she came to me, its like I didn't really take that much interest her at the same...
