    How do position optimally patients for sinew treatment to limit change of posture, considering he has needles in face (and you needle back but also back of leg) ?

    Feels like I am moving alot my patient (for example ventral: 17 huatuo in out / dorsal: Lv-14 in out / then side left and right for yang back channels).

    Sinews are about moving, they treat Wind! They are dynamic treatments as opposed to more static needle-retention ones, so it is perfectly OK to move your patient about, as long as it does not cause unnecessary discomfort. In any case, as you proceed with the treatment the very discomfort should be easing.

    Hello,
    Do tag onto this thread. Are we leaving the confluent points in while we do the sinew treatment or do we remove because we are treating wind? Thank you 🙂
