How long is the acupuncture pen held in one spot
Use it with "Spectra 360 Electrode Gel"
U will get totaly diferent level
Hi! Great video, I've learnt a lot! The one I have doesn't have the facial attachment. What is it actually called so I can try and order the part? I brought the Pointer Excel as I have Bells Palsy.
Glad the video was helpful. I don't think you can order the part separately. It's basically a flat metal head. Here's the link to the pen which comes with all the attachments. amzn.to/42pOCAQ
@@More4Lifethank you so much!!!
Hello, I have a bump on the third cervical vertebra. Will this device help me remove this bump?
Thanks
I would say most likely not
Hi,does it tells the accupunture points where to insert needle ?
And can we give electric current on needle after inserting
It is not designed to be used with needles. It located points and then stimulates them with electricity without puncturing the skin.
@@More4Life but i saw number of videos where they are using this pen with needles..giving them current..is it ok ?
Hi do you know if it will take out air bubbles in / underneath the skin ?
I don't know for sure, but I would say most likely not.
So you apply it for 30 seconds on each point, right? Is that going to be enough? I mean, in regular acupuncture the needles are there for quite some time. I want to use it for vagal stimulation.
This is quite different from regular acupuncture in many ways, one of which being you can only treat one point at one time, and it's across the skin rather than through it. That said, how long to apply it for each individual use case is beyond the scope of a CZcams video.
can i ask a question
How long the Electronic acupuncture pen meridian is held on the point
A How many times a day
What is the degree of the number of the pen is held on the point
Per the product manual: "It can be used once or twice each day and 3-5 minutes for the same part each time." The number (intensity) is to your comfort level.
I don’t feel a thing in my foot , but hands I feel a lot . At maximum frequency and intensity
This is for treatment or detect trigger point ?
Both... it detects it but when you find one, you press a button and it sends an electric current to treat it.
How much price of this Acupuncture pen ?and is this a point detector and best point stimulator?
It's both a point detector and a point stimulator. The Amazon link in the description will have the most up to date price. At the time of this comment, it's $69 USD, but prices can change on Amazon at any time.
Can this help Tinnitus?
I couldn't tell you one way or the other for certain. You can certainly try it out and see, but I wouldn't have incredibly high hopes.
Can it pick up anything through clothing, or only directly on skin?
Directly on skin
Can we use it for bells palasy plz reply me
It can be used on the face and actually has a facial attachment (intended more for cosmetic purposes). However, it no way implies that it can cure Bell's Palsy. I have a colleague who specializes in Bell's palsy. Here's an (audio only) podcast interview that I did with him a few years ago: czcams.com/video/sCA_o1J2SlQ/video.html He also has an online Bell's palsy course available at www.butheauphysio.com/bells-palsy-treatment-at-home.html Good luck!
How do you replace the battery. I have an ETPS professional 1000
It has a rechargeable lithium battery that charges with a USB cable.
I found the website. Mine uses a 9 volt battery.
Nice video,.. Does this Accupuncture pen have a HZ setting? If so how can it be useful for treatment?
It does have a Hz dial where you can turn up or down the frequency, but there are no labels on it as to what number of Hz it's delivering, so it's really a personal preference as to whether you prefer a higher or lower frequency vibration.
@@More4Lifeof course you can see what frequency it is set to. That’s what the LCD display on top of the device is for.
@@AndreasLienemann Thanks for your comment. I just checked the device, and the numbers on top do seem to increase when you turn the frequency dial. It ranged from 5 at the lowest frequency setting to 25 at the highest when I checked it.
@@More4Life It shows the frequency while you hit the button for treatment/administering treatment; If you're locating points it will default to indicating the sensitivity. The frequency range on these is usually 1-16 Hz. Maybe the newer ones go up to 25 Hz, I don't know.
How to know excess or deficiency at that point?
Essentially it just picks up electrical current in the muscle. So if you mean too "yin or yang" or "hot or cold", I'm not certain that it can do that.
In acupuncture, either the point has excess of energy or deficiency. Accordingly, tonification or sedation is done. This pen is showing numbers, so does it indicate level of energy?
@@AnNie-13 you'd have to check with the manufacturer on this one. My gut feeling is that it probably register excess of energy (higher electrical activity), and not deficiency. But again, you'd have to check with the manufacturer on the specifics. It doesn't mention anything about that in manual that accompanies the product.
Thank you😊🙏
What is the name of it
Heswea is the brand name. Otherwise, it's just called an electronic acupuncture pen. Here's the link to it: amzn.to/42pOCAQ
Can you use it on someone else? Who would hold the rod?
Yes, you can use it on someone else. For points in your back near your spine, you almost have to have 2 people.
The person receiving the treatment is the person that holds the rod.
Curious why is your left bicep so much larger than your right? Is that a training thing or an injury? I ask because my son has started body building and his left calf muscle looks larger and im concerned.
I injured my shoulder as a teenager and didn't do PT for it (ironically). No more pain, and my right is still pretty strong but it's not like the left. In your son's case, it may be an indication of a muscle imbalance, but best to look into it now so he can fix it sooner rather than later.
