Primary Parkinson's disease: the use of Tuina and acupuncture in accord with an evolving hypothesis of its cause from the perspective of Chinese traditional medicine--Part 2.

In Part II of this series, the author continues the discussion of a hypothesis based on acupuncture channel theory regarding the cause of Parkinson's disease (PD). A system of Yin-type Tuina, termed FSR (forceless spontaneous response) evolved from this theory; its clinical application has resulted in various degrees of relief from PD symptoms, (e.g., tremor, rigidity, decreased dyskinesia; improved balance, circulation) regardless of the stage of the disease, and in several cases enabled a reduction of conventional medication. This installment includes basic instruction in the technique, and a discussion of the dyskinesia which occurs during restoration of Qi to the Large Intestine and Stomach channels during treatment. A case study chronicles the weekly changes in symptoms typically experienced by patients during FSR therapy.[1]
