Transversal Luo Tx (bleeding luos)

[Frederic Leclair]

Does patient need to have lots of resource when you bleed transversal luos for wei/ying/yuan level pathological emotions Tx ?
Do harmonizing blood suffice after or you could couple this with 6 flowers or tonifying ladder for example to make sure pte have resources to sustain Tx ?

Hi Frederic,

If you are doing a full Lou treatment, you simply bleed the Lou vessels but paying attention to when the color changes from dark to light, at which point you stop the bleeding so as not to make the patient weak if not enough resources. In the empty Lou treatments, you would harmonize blood by needling one point distal to the He-Sea points.

So strictly, you don’t need to be concerned about the weakness of the patient when doing Lou’s. Also, pay attention to when you notice a shift with the patient on the table such as deep inhalation and exhalation after you bleed a certain Lou point. Once you notice a shift like that, you no longer need to perform any further bleeding and can move on to the next phase of your session or leave it as is. Keep it focused.

I’m not sure what you mean by 6 flowers or tonifying bladder but generally it is okay to do any other treatment after a Lou session.

Hi Frederic,
The amount of blood released in a Luo treatment should not represent a threat to a deficient patient, unless the patient was very deficient to begin with in which case you would take a very conservative stance and you would limit the amount of Luo channels being treated as well as keeping the number of Luos vessels bled to a minimum.

While the 六花 liùhuā 6-flower combination could be useful for very deficient patients, one could opt for a 血府 xuèfǔ Blood Mansion treatment which is more specific to nourish Blood in a Luo scenario. This treatment consists of 3 points: 大包 dàbāo Sp21 the Great Wrapping (master point of Da bao and the Great Luo of Spleen point where all Luo pathology may get access to the constitutional terrain); 極泉 jíquán Ht1 Supreme Spring (it connects to the previous point) and 章門 zhāngmén Lv13 Camphorwood Gate (helps release memories financed by Blood putting pressure on Jing -Daimai-).
