The selection of the method of stimulation over the su jok points depends on the disease’s seriousness and the size of the correspondence zone that will be used.

More serious the disease, more lasting and powerful must be the healing impulses needed for its overcoming.

With diseases that are not so serious a soft way of stimulation of the pain su jok points can be used. For instance for the treatment of a mild case of a cold it is not necessary needles to be used. Sufficient is the massage with a diagnostic probe or seed-therapy (magnets).

The more serious, acute and chronic diseases require powerful and lasting healing impulses, created with moxa, needles or combination of different methods of stimulation. For example warming up with moxa and placing of magnets for the period till the next procedure or needle stimulation plus a recurrent general massage with a su jok massager.

When you choose a stimulation method you should have in mind that if you select a powerful method to treat not so serious disease you will simply cure it faster, but if you choose too soft method by a serious disease you won’t have any success. So it is better you to get rein­sured.

In small correspondence zones it is better to use a method of stimulation, concentrated on a small­er area.

The correspondence zones in the  “Insect“ system are smaller than the correspondence zones in the Main corre­spondence system. That’s why in this case it is better to use needles, minimoxa, seeds, magnets or a diagnostic probe massage. Moxa cigars are more suitable to be used in the Main correspondence system. Cigars can be also used in the „Insect“ system if the affected body area and its projection are large.

PROCEDURE PARAMETERS

NUMBER AND FREQUENCY

The procedures number depends on the nature and seriousness of the disease. They are done every day, no matter what time of the day, but not more than 14 in one course of treatment.

If there is time and patience, it is possible 2 proce­dures to be made a day (in the morning and in the evening). Thus the healing process speeds up.

The treatment must continue 2-3 procedures after the symptoms of the disease have disappeared – this serves as a rule that must be always observed. Otherwise, it is possi­ble the disease to „come back”

Normally with recently discovered acute diseases 3 to 5 procedures daily are enough.

Often the disease’s symptoms disappear in the first minutes and sometimes in the first seconds of the first procedure. Notwithstanding, 2-3 procedures more are needed for the healing effect to be strengthened.

Sometimes with chronic diseases a course treat­ment is necessary to be done. 2 to 6 courses consisting of 10-14 procedures are made with a break of 1-2 weeks between them. If the disease worsens during this period, the procedures should be made every day, if it is not acute – at intervals of one-two days.

Note: The breaks between the treatment courses are made so that the used pain points can rest, because their long every day stimulation decreases their effectiveness. That’s the reason the prescriptions given in this book to suggest succession of the pain points stimulation in differ­ent correspondence zones of the diseased organ.

DURATION

The duration of a procedure depends on the stimulation method and the number of the stimulated pain points or areas. Here we just want to give you some information about the duration of the main stimulation methods and we don’t include the time needed for the location of the pain points.

GENERAL STRENGTHENING MASSAGE WITH A MAS­SAGER: Usually two fingers are massaged with a ring and the entire hands and feet – with a spiral or cylinder, the aimed result is a powerful warming up of the skin. It takes 3-7 min­utes altogether.

SEEDS (MAGNETIC STARS, MAGNETS):

The placing of the stimulators itself can take up to 20 minutes. From 1 to 6 points are used. Later on the pain points are massaged (when seeds or magnetic stars are used) for 1-2 minutes, 3-4 times a day.

DIAGNOSTIC PROBE MASSAGE: To be created a sta­ble healing impulse the pain point should be massaged till the pain disappears and a warm sensation takes its place – for about 15 to 30 minutes.

MOXA: The warming up of a point or area takes 20-30 minutes. Most often are warmed up 1-2

The warming up of a point or area takes 20-30 minutes. Most often are warmed up 1-2 su jok points or areas. This takes from 20 to 60 minutes altogether.

NEEDLES: The needles have to stay in the pain point not less than 30 minutes. The counting starts after the last needle is placed. The total duration of the procedure, together with the needle inserting is up to 50 minutes.

At first sight one procedure lasts long – sometimes more than an hour. But you can make it at leisure, while you are watching TV. The procedure is not boring and is made without causing inconveniences, with a nice movie, serving as a background. As a matter of fact if you make psy­chotherapeutic procedures in a hospital you would lose more time, and money, which is time again, because you have worked to earn it.
