Learning
Upper Extremities Module
Part of the Nanopuncture Seminar Series
About this Module
The upper extremity and forearm module is one of the most challenging modules to teach. Practitioners are typically taught this module towards the end of the program, by invitation only, because they need to develop their hand sensitivity and hone their skills in freehand insertion and needle manipulation.
In this module, participants will learn how to:
- Activate the brachial plexus and how to affect the branches of the network into the radial, median, and ulnar nerve branches
- Gongfu and Qi gong hand exercises to improve strength and circulation
- Increase grip strength
- Open and close the hand
- Reduce and treat hand spasticity
The skills learned in this module can also be applied to treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis and golfer's elbow, hand neuropathy, bicipital tendonitis, post-surgical shoulder and hand issues, and more.
Learn More About the Other Modules
In this module, you will learn how to properly categorize different forms of gait disorder from a neurological movement perspective.
Speech Paralysis and Left Hemisphere Module
The voice is one of the main tools that enable us to communicate clearly, and effectively, and to represent our truest selves.
Concussion / Traumatic Brain Injury Module
The Nanopuncture System accelerates concussion recovery and treats post-concussion symptoms using techniques that calm the nervous system, reduce tachycardia, increase focus, and mitigate hypersensitivity to light and other dysautonomia symptoms.
Autonomic Nervous System and Cranial Nerves Module
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is like a computer in our bodies that keeps many of our systems running in the “background,” including digestion, perspiration, breathing, swallowing, blood pressure, heart rate, and more.
The skills learned in this module can also be applied to treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis and golfer's elbow, hand neuropathy, bicipital tendonitis, post-surgical shoulder and hand issues, and more.
Gut-Brain Axis / Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Dementia Module
The Gut-Brain Axis module is the most recent addition to the Nanopuncture seminar series. In this course, participants will learn the relationship of the microbiome to the brain.
In the Sports and Orthopedic module, Dr. Shiu will teach participants how to apply nerve plexus resetting techniques to treat common sports and orthopedic injuries.
Modern Innovations and Technology Module
In this seminar, Dr. Shiu will teach the basics of photobiomodulation (PBM), qEEG, and laser therapy and how to incorporate these technologies in a clinical session.
