A New Year Acupuncture for Weight Loss

by Administrator on January 3, 2012

weight loss acupuncture new years resolution

If you have tried everything conceivable in the past few years for weight loss, maybe you need to try something new.  It is amazing how many gimmicks people will try before utilizing alternative therapies.  People will try harmful medication even surgery before attempting something safe and effective.  Why? I believe it has something to do with your brain.

If you are reading this blog, it is probably because you have a different brain.  That’s right your brain is different or at least wired differently than the average person.  This is not a bad thing, you are not weird.  Just the opposite, you are able to think for yourself.  You see most individuals lack the ability even to consider an approach so unique and different.  They not only lack the ability they do not even consider or give these therapies a thought.  Traditional approaches are all the average person can consider.  They will blindly follow what everyone else is doing.  You think, reason and make decisions on your own.  You realize there can be beneficial therapies that are not mainstream.

So, the challenge is can you follow through?  Do you not only have the ability to think and decide for yourself, do you have the ability to persist.  Weight loss is not easy, if it were you would be thin.  Acupuncture for weight loss works.  However, you have to give it a chance.  You have the ability to change your life and do it your way.

AcuAids Weight Loss is a unique process that utilizes acupuncture, hypnosis and neuroprogramming all combined together.  In as much together these approaches will give you the best opportunity to lose weight.  Keep an open mind and no door is closed to you!

Aacupressure For Low Back Pain

by Administrator on June 23, 2011

Acupressure for low back pain.

Stop Low Back Pain with Acupressure

Acupressure for low back pain can be an effective solution.  Acuaids incorporates acupressure like approach utilizing 2000 gauss magnets applied to acupuncture points along with neuroprogramming, self hypnosis and exercise therapy to help stop low back pain.

Here are a few facts you may not know.

Your low back is called your lumbar spine.  There are 5 vertebrae and five discs along with layers of muscles that make-up this structure.  This part of your spine only flexes or bends forward for a total of 30 degrees.  If you bend more than that the muscles that support your low back shut off resulting in all of the weight of your upper body being supported by the disc and ligaments.  Something else that is quite surprising is that each and every time you bend past 30 degrees the damage done to the disc is cumulative.  Another unbelieveable statistic is your disc has a certain number of bends it can tolerate then it begins to show damage such as tearing.  You see your disc is made up of layers called annular fibers.  These layers surround a central gelatinous core called the nucleus.  As these layers tear the gelatinous nucleus seeps through the tears.  As more and more layers tear the gel works it’s way to the periphery.  All along you are symptom free.  Some individuals may have occasional symptoms that eventually resolve themself.  Your disc continues to degenerate.  This problem can also occur as result of trauma.  Bending or trauma can result in damage to the supporting ligaments, muscles and joints of the spine.  This causes inflammation, adhesions and even scar tissue to form around the joints.  The result is a joint, bone and disc that do not move as much as it should or a complete fixation occurs.  After the age of 2 the blood supply to the disc naturally diminishes. From that point on the only way the disc can get fluid and nutrients is with movement.  They pump the fluid in from a barrier between the disc and bone.

Low Back Pain is evident

Fixations and repetitive bending past 30 degrees results in damage to the disc.  The disc degenerates slowly over years.  Eventually the annular fibers tear and the gelatinous nucleus seeps through the tears.  The space for the nerves slowly diminishes.  The nerve responds by shrinking in size to fit through this smaller opening.  Your symptoms may come and go or be fairly mild for years until the disc either herniates or the nerve opening becomes so small that the nerve can no longer fit through the opening.

What you do for Low Back Pain

At this point the typical response is to take a pain killer or muscle relaxer.  These approaches may work for a while.  However the pain usually progresses, resulting in a doctor’s office visit.  More powerful medications are prescribed.  It’s like your house is on fire so you draw the curtains so you can’t see the flames.  Unfortunately the fire eventually burns through the curtains, similarly your condition worsens and the medication no longer works.  A common next step is a cortisone injection or an epidural.  Once again this approach is only a more agressive approach to squelch the symptoms.  Eventually it no longer works.  Many times physical therapy is prescribed.  This can be a good thing.  However if you have a disc problem this approach will only help you to cope or compensate for the bad disc, it will not heal or restore the disc.

Eventually surgery for low back pain will be suggested.

The literature and follow-up studies indicate a 1% success rate over a 5 year period of time.  You see the typical surgical approach for a disc condition is to remove the protruding disc material.  This can be done in many ways, including a laser.  It sounds like a great idea.  However, where is the part of disc that is protruding supposed to be?  It is supposed to be inside taking up space between the bones.  Think about your disc like a jelly donut.  If you bite into the donut at the wrong end the jelly will squish out of the hole.  Well the jelly is the good stuff in the donut, same with the disc.  You want the jelly.  Once you cut it out, it is gone for good.  The result is a less healthy, thinner disc with a smaller nerve opening.  This disc will degenerate faster, resulting in a return of symptoms and an overall worsened disc.  The next stages of care are more concerning.  Now you will be offered stronger medications, morphine pumps, rhizotomies, severing of the nerve, fusions and so on.

First of all Do No Harm.

There are approaches offered by Dr. Schneider that will help you to heal.  Your body has the ability to heal, no matter how old or how bad off you are.  It is important to understand what I have just explained to you.  Be patient, have understanding, be realistic.  Do not be fooled.

There is no quick fix.

You know that nothing worth while or long lasting comes quickly.  People often chose an approach with short term promises only to suffer long term consequences.  The truth is sometimes hard to accept.  Become educated, ask questions.  I am amazed at how many patients I see that have had surgery and have no idea what was done.  If you ever consider surgery or other approaches you need only ask one question.  Can you gaurantee that you will not make me worse?  You Know the answer.  Another question is can you gaurantee that you will survive the procedure.  The answer to this question should cause you to pause.  I can confidently answer both of those questions with a resounding YES!

For more information on your personal condition consult Dr. Schneider.

Acupressure Point Stop Smoking

by Administrator on April 19, 2011

Acupressure point for Stop Smoking

Is there an acupressure point to Stop Smoking?  Acupuncture is based on the theory that energy channels traverse throughout your body.  Illness and disease, even addictions like smoking occur as a result of imbalance or blockage of these channels.  What causes the blockages?  How can you clear the blockages to help you quit smoking?

Life is full of stress; including physical, emotional and physiological.  These stresses accumulate and sort of short circuit your system.  The channels the energies traverse are called the meridians.  You could represent meridians as circuits in a computer or electric board diagram.  These stressors overload the circuits.  This leads to disruption, which leads to disease.  This is the reason you cannot quit smoking.  You may have been exposed to stressors that reprogrammed your circuit board.  Your new program is to be an addict and a smoker.  This concept is what is unique in the AcuAids program.  Realizing the real cause of addiction, understanding the reason you are a smoker and applying the right treatment to create a new program.

These stressors are obvious, however the effects are not.   You experience most of the stresses consciously.  You don’t realize the way they are internalized.  As time progresses you live out the new identity.  You smoke for relief.  Your self image slowly changes.  You begin to accept this version of yourself.  Eventually you decide to try and get your old self back, you try pills, even  join programs.  However, the more you try the harder you fall.   You have a real problem, you have lost the old you.  It is literally gone.  Can you get your identity back?  Is there any way to eventually quit smoking, again?

This is where acupressure point for stop smoking comes in.   AcuAids with Dr. Schneider has developed a program to help get the old you back again.  Using proprietary points developed by Dr. Schneider and AcuAids patches you can literally reprogram yourself.  When you add coordinated self hypnosis and neuroprogramming you have a comprehensive quit smoking approach.  You can resolve the issues that have prevented you from succeeding.  When you think and act like a non smoker, you will become that person.

Self Hypnosis For Sleep

by Administrator on April 3, 2011

Would self hypnosis for sleep help you improve your health?

Self hypnosis for sleep will help you resolve your insomnia issues

Are you tired a lot?  Are you having problems with your memory?  Are you suffering from headaches?  Is your digestive system causing you discomfort?  Do you get frequent infections?  Do you have pain, especially overall body aches?  Do you have high blood pressure?  Are you a type 2 diabetic?

If you answered yes any of the above symptoms you may be suffering from the side effects of insomnia. Self Hypnosis for sleep alone could make a tremendous impact on your health.  Imagine the additional benefits when you add acupressure for sleep and then neuroprogramming.

How well do you actually sleep.  A University of California, San Diego psychiatry study of more than one million adults found that people who live the longest self-report sleeping for six to seven hours each night.

Did you know there are different levels of sleep?  Your brain and body go through changes as you sleep.

Sleep is generally classified as Rapid Eye Movement (REM) and non REM.  I am sure you will find the explanation of these different levels of sleep of interest, for you wish to obtain good health, right?

You actually transition through several brain wave patterns while you sleep.  Each has a slightly different affect on your sleep and body.  There is Alpha, Beta, Theta and Delta wave patterns.

Beta wave pattern  are the waves that occur when you are awake, alert.  Thses wave are the most common and most prevalent in the brain.

Alpha waves are likened to a light meditation. They are prevalent when you daydream They will become stronger when your eyes are closed.

Theta waves occur during heightened states of creativity and are found with a deep meditative state.

The final brainwave state is delta Here the brainwaves are of the slowest frequency. They typically center around a range of 1.5 to 4 cycles per second. They never go down to zero because that would mean that you were brain dead, just don’t tell anyone. Just checking if you are paying attention.  But, deep dreamless sleep would take you down to the lowest frequency. Typically, 2 to 3 cycles a second.

Our interest here is how these patterns change when we go to sleep.  When you go to bed, maybe you decide to read for a few minutes before attempting sleep, you are likely to be in low beta.   When you put the book down, turn off the lights and close our eyes, your brainwaves will descend from beta, to alpha, to theta and finally, when you fall asleep, to delta.

Sleep proceeds in cycles of REM and NREM, the order normally being N1 → N2 → N3 → N2 → REM. There is a greater amount of deep sleep (stage N3) earlier in the sleep cycle, while the proportion of REM sleep increases later in the sleep cycle and just before natural awakening

The first stage. of Non REM is N1 which refers to the transition of the brain from alpha waves to theta waves. This stage is sometimes referred to as somnolence or drowsy sleep. Sudden twitches and hypnic jerks may be associated with the onset of sleep during N1. You lose some muscle tone and most conscious awareness of the external environment

During stage N2 muscular activity decreases and conscious awareness of the external environment disappears. This stage occupies 45 to 55% of total sleep in adults.

Stage N3 (deep or slow-wave sleep) is characterized by the presence of a minimum of 20% delta waves.  This is the stage in which such things as night terrors, bed wetting, and sleepwalking can occur. 20–50% delta waves and later periods with greater than 50% delta waves have been noted at this stage.

Rapid eye movement sleep, or REM sleep accounts for 20–25% of total sleep time in most human adults.  The most memorable dreaming occurs in this stage. Decreased muscular function is seen. Such paralysis may be necessary to protect organisms from self- damage through physically acting out scenes from the often-vivid dreams that occur during

How many hours of sleep do you need.  The average adult needs 6 to 8 hours, an infant to age 5 needs 14 to 18 hours, age 5 to 12 need 10 to 12 hours, and an adolescent needs 9 to 11 hours.

Consider AcuAids to improve your sleep.  AcuAids incorporates self hypnosis for sleep, acupressure for sleep utilizing AcuAids magnetic patches along with neuroprogramming to help get you into the brainwave patterns for deep sleep.

Lose Weight by Changing Your Mind

by Administrator on March 17, 2011

Subconsciously Reprogram Weight Loss

Weight loss can be complicated.  You may be a victim of your own thoughts.

You know everyone is following his or her own program; it is what has become universally acceptable.  If you awaken. people will recognize that you aren’t following anymore.  People will challenge you, demanding that you get back in line.

If we follow, how can we be sure our subconscious program has not taken over?

And if so has not been infiltrated and distorted? You listen to the radio, watch television, and have people in your life.  You change the channel, tune out, and turn your back; however, the messages may have already registered.  Your subconscious mind is tricky things seep in.  Subliminal messages scroll across the screen, are playing in the background and are created from within.  Are you paranoid or just overwhelmed?  Gurus and religious figures meditate to clean their minds of this crud.  How can you be sure your intuition isn’t really all this stuff being regurgitated through your subconscious?

Hold on Dr. Schneider will help you scrub it clean.  You can erase that negative debilitating program.

In order to restore your identity and wipe away the years of programming you will need to address several things.  First of all you need to remove as many negative influences as you can.  Get rid of the so-called friends, limit your exposure to any negative family members, reduce your media consumption, evaluate the organizations you belong to, open your eyes to true identity of your idols.  Easier said than done, I know, however you need to take these steps.

Now let’s take a look at some applications that will get to the core.

I know that up to this point I have not spoken much about weight loss.  However, you have to realize that true weight loss will never occur unless you can get rid of the programming you have received, you have to leave the overweight person’s identity behind.

I have two degrees in Acupuncture, a Fellowship and a Diplomate.  One thing I find intriguing about Acupuncture is how the meridian systems traverse throughout our body like a computer program.  At least that is the way I envision the meridians. I believe you can tap into this energy and create tremendous changes within the body.

Try AcuAids for weight loss, and experience the changes you need to become the thin person you desire.

Are You sure You are a Smoker, are you supposed to be overweight?

According to Dr. Schneider there are real answers to your smoking addiction and lack of ability to lose weight.  Once you understand the complexities of the conditions you will better understand the value of self hypnosis and acupressure for weight loss and stop smoking.

You are much more than meets the eye.  Your perception of who you are is actually only a surface identity.  In order to really identify who you are, you need to understand the dichotomy between the conscious and subconscious mind.

Your decisions are made with the conscious part of your mind.  Most of who we are is recognized consciously.  However the answer to who we should be may lie hidden within our subconscious mind, or possibly even deeper yet.

You have a real identity and it is not a smoker or an overweight person.

This identity knows who you are, your purpose and the answer to the questions.  The questions you are pondering right now, tomorrow and all of the yesterdays have already been answered, and you know the answer.  However, unfortunately your programming has been so thorough you may never reach that answer.  Questions, we contemplate the answers, analyze, write down the positives in one column and negatives in another, weighing on our decision.

How can we be assured we are making the right choice?

Consciously we come to a conclusion, however something doesn’t feel right.  What is that pit feeling within your stomach? Did you make the wrong decision?  Or, did you go about making the decision in a manner that could not possibly result in the right answer?  You make decisions utilizing the program you were given.  You were taught how to decide.  So whose decision is it anyway?  Not yours, I assure you.

You made the decision consciously.

You made the decision consulting your program from the past, you may have added new layers in the present, but this was not your decision, everyone but you made it.  So, one day a feeling comes over you, something is pulling on you, you get up and follow, you arrive at a destination, a new feeling comes over you, leading you further, as intuition becomes stronger leading you on…you discover your calling.  You arrive at decisions easily, there is no doubt, and you don’t have that pit feeling.  You have arrived at a destination.  You were guided by the subconscious, or an identity with no name.  Some believe it to be their intuition.

There exist answers to our questions about quitting smoking and losing weight.

They are not that obvious, they do not come to us through analysis, discussions or contemplation. They are more like a nudge or a whisper.  Do you have the guts and fortitude to listen and follow?  Are you willing to shed the program that holds you back?  Are you strong enough to step out of line and head your own direction.

Who are you really?

Allow the AcuAids program to help you identify who you really are.  Strip away this false identity.  You do not have to be a smoker.  You do not have to be over weight.

Is Addiction All In Your Head

by Administrator on March 11, 2011

What causes an addiction

Is addiction all in your head

Do you smoke or are you a junk food addict?  Have you ever wondered why you have this addiction?  If you understand an addiction, you will be more apt to conquer it.   Is it possible the addiction is all in your head?  Stop smoking and lose weight once you understand why you have an addiction.

It is all in your head!

This is an old excuse.  Physicians used to tell patients, it was all in their head, when the doctor could not figure out why the patient was having a problem.  Is it possible that a condition could develop as a result of the way you think?  Could the image you have of yourself be why you are addicted?  The answer to this question could be the key to kicking your addiction.

It is well understood that stress causes an emotional response.

In other words we think about the environment we live in, which is what stress is.  If this is repeated over and over again, we can actually create a condition through the aberrant thought patterns.  And, one of the most common conditions people develop is addiction.  You see the addictive substance, seems to create a feeling of well- being, which is what you are lacking.  The more you continue this destructive pattern, the worse the addiction can become.  If you can figure out how to stop this pattern, you will be more able to stop the addiction.

An emotional response is definitely something within your head; even more difficult to resolve and understand as an underlying cause of addictions is your self image.  Your self-image is the way you see yourself within your own mind.  If you see yourself as an addict, then you are an addict.  If you see yourself as a fat person then you will be addicted to food.  If you can figure out how to change this, you can stop smoking and lose weight.

Whether or not you have an addiction as a result of an emotional response from stress or a poor self image, you will need to resolve these conditions if you ever wish to permanently resolve your problem.

AcuAids has your solution!

The utilization of acupuncture point stimulation or acupressure helps you to create a feeling of well-being and reduces the effect of stress.  Self hypnosis and neuroprogramming also helps with creating a healthy self image.  With AcuAids you can become a non-smoker and a thin person.

Are you making quitting smoking harder than it should be?

Stop Smoking with acupressure and self hypnosis

When someone asks what the fastest way to quit smoking, first I tell them they’re asking the wrong question.

Wanting to know the “fastest” or “easiest” way to do anything is a sure route to failure. The fastest route is the path sold to suckers with no patience for the actual process involved in resolving the real problem

Instead, let’s talk about the important components of quitting smoking, or how other successful people have done it. Those are things worth talking about.

There is rarely a single “component” to do something complicated, especially when it comes to stopping smoking.

OK, so if you were to ask me what the most important components of stopping smoking are, I’d always start with perception. You have to see yourself as a non-smoker to succeed. We’ve covered that here quite a bit lately. Hopefully I’m not beating it to death.

Beside changing your perception, what else do you need to quit smoking?

You need to develop a strong feeling of well-being, have a great support mechanism and use a long proven approach.  Those are all foundational elements. Then, once you have decided you want to quit smoking have chosen a strong product, you need to get rid of your cigarettes.

The people who succeed at quitting, develop an attitude that they are no longer a smoker.  They’ve literally changed their identity.

I understand that it can be frustrating when you have tried seemingly everything and failed. But, if you have some patience and put in the effort, you can make complete, virtually indestructible identity shift and become a non-smoker.

Here’s something else to keep in mind. Back when you first tried to quit smoking, the products that you tried weren’t nearly as comprehensive. Yes, they had modest results at best,  however most of  them have all but disappeared.

AcuAids will help you to change the way you think of yourself, you will become a non-smoker. AcuAids helps you provide a feeling of well-being.    It provides you with a great support mechanism, a program that can be utilized for as long as you deem necessary.

Think and Grow Fat?

by Administrator on March 4, 2011

Stop your negative image causing weight gain

Think and grow fat?

Can acupuncture for weight loss change the way you think and help you lose weight?  Is it possible that your thoughts can actually affect your physiology and result in weight gain?  If this is true just how does it happen?

Your thoughts count.

If you look at yourself in the mirror and think, wow! I am fat.  How does that actually make you fat?  Thinking or believing you are fat is not a positive attitude.  Negative thoughts translate into actual physiological changes.  Your thoughts are not confined to your brain.  And as a result change you chemically.

The thoughts you repeat  can create an increase or decrease in certain hormones.

It is well understood that negative thoughts affect your glandular function.  Specifically the adrenal glands are stressed.  This gland will go through changes that can eventually lead to weight gain.  If you continue to view yourself as a fat person, this creates a chronic stress on these glands resulting in an increase in cortisol levels.

Your glands are in control

The hypothalamus is responsible for certain metabolic processes and other activities of the autonomic nervous system. It synthesizes and secretes certain neurohormones, often called hypothalamic releasing hormone, and these in turn stimulate the secretion of pituitary hormones. The hypothalamus controls hunger.  As the pituitary then stimulates the adrenals resulting in an increase in cortisol which then causes increase in blood glucose.  Cortisol raises the level of glucose in the blood by stimulating the liver to produce glucose from stored non-carbohydrate sources such as proteins and lipids and to release it into the blood.

Wow! All of that from one negative thought.

Try the AcuAids program to help reprogram your mind, stop the negative thoughts and become that thin person.  So, you see, your mind controls your weight, it is all in the physiology.
