Meeting Dr. Ting Chi Fa

Dr Ting Chi Fa is sharing with me his knowledge and experience in Chinese therapies related to injuries and sport injuries. Today we discussed a number of cases related to my patients  and I observed back and shoulder injuries. The most common therapy  that he uses  is acupuncture at the Ashi points with heat  a long with herbal medicine to move the blood and help the body heal.

I was given information about the herbal formulations that he uses the most. Also he does bone manipulation after the Holter traction therapy followed by a  muscle release technique.Very interesting combination of therapies. His success rate in reducing pain and help the body restore to it’s normal state for acute injuries is very high. Patients see results in 4-6 treatments. He treats an average of 20 patients a day!

In the Holter Neck traction, weight adjustable traction used to relieve tension in the back and neck muscles. The 15 minute treatment was followed by a massage.
