What is Micro Acupuncture?

Micro Acupuncture and Acunova are acupuncture healing systems that have their beginnings in the mid-1980s in Denmark. Dr. Freddy Dalgren was assisted by Dr. Peter Otte. Together they discovered the Micro-Acupuncture system. This system can effectively diagnose and treat several disorders, including many degenerative eye conditions.

The Acunova system evolved directly from the lineage of Dr. Freddy Dalgren’s work. Acunova was founded by Dr. John Boel, an acupuncturist from Denmark. Both the Micro Acupuncture and the Acunova systems utilize acupuncture points located on the bottom of the feet and palm side of the hands. These are non-traditional acupuncture points that are not used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

In his clinic, Dr. Freddy Dalgren was originally seeking to help his patients who suffered from arthritic conditions. When he applied the Micro-Acupuncture system, many of the patients reported that their vision had improved, both brightness and clarity.

This led Dr. Dalgren to continue to research and refine his technique. He improved his system to the degree that approximately 75% of his patients suffering from conditions like glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, dry eye conditions, retinal detachment, Stargardt's disease, optic neuritis, and floaters all showed improvement.

The important work that Drs. Freddy Dalgren and Peter Otte did back in 1984 came about from their review of research performed by a Chinese scientist who explained that acupuncture’s effectiveness is linked to the maturation and development of the human embryological system.

How Micro Acupuncture Supports Cellular Healing

When acupuncture needles stimulate points on the feet and the palms of the hands, they affect nerve fiber endings that stimulate centers in the brain which are responsible for vision. Blood flow is increased to both the optic nerve and the retina.

This aids in “waking up” dormant neuronal cells that have become “unhealthy” over the course of the time. The function of these cells has become diminished to some degree.
Increasing blood flow to these nerve cells increases the transportation and absorption of valuable nutrients, including oxygen. These cells have become inflamed and may be depleted in certain vitamins and minerals that are required to restore them to their proper function.

To date, very few acupuncture practitioners have been trained in the Micro Acupuncture or Acunova systems. Most of those who have learned these procedures reside in Europe. There are only a small number of practitioners in the United States who understand how to implement these techniques.

Chinese medical ophthalmology has remained as an integral part of Chinese medicine for over 2000 years. From a western medical perspective, acupuncture increases blood flow to the brain and the eyes. This has been demonstrated using ocular Doppler imaging, ultrasound, and MRI.

In addition to using micro-systems like Micro-Acupuncture and Acunova, I may also choose local acupuncture points (TCM) during the treatment to provide additional blood flow to the eyes.

As an acupuncture practitioner, I view each person as an individual. I treat the patient, not the disease. The symptoms may appear to be the same, but the treatment protocols can be very different. There is no one size that fits all in Chinese medicine.

While acupuncture in any form is not intended to be curative for eye diseases, it can uniquely support the healing process. Clinical results have shown that many patients have improved from their lost vision using both the Micro-Acupuncture and Acunova systems. For many others, the progression of an aggressive eye disorder has been slowed- down and managed.

Some of the diagnoses that may lead to the loss of vision or blindness include both glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). Macular degeneration has two forms, the dry form, and the wet form. Most age-related macular degeneration patients have the dry type, which is usually less aggressive. The wet form includes bleeding or leaking fluid and may occur very rapidly, causing significant vision loss.

Ophthalmologists can help a small percentage of age-related macular degeneration patients with specialized laser techniques and injections. Unfortunately, that leaves most of the patients with Macular degeneration without much hope of getting better.

Many patients are told by their eye doctors that nothing can be done for their condition. This is where specialized acupuncture techniques like Micro-Acupuncture and Acunova can be beneficial. From clinical observations of my own patients to my European and American colleagues who work in a similar fashion, the results remain consistently high.

Both Micro-Acupuncture and Acunova have improved over 70% of patients with Macular degeneration and glaucoma at rates ranging from 10-90%. In addition to the positive treatment outcomes, most patients have been able to maintain their improved medical status by receiving periodic maintenance treatments one or more times per year.

The five senses we use every day are sight, smell, touch, hearing, and taste. Of these, we depend up to 85% on our vision to take in information and sense the world around us. As humans, we can become distressed and depressed when our precious eye-sight fails to function properly.

Don’t let this happen to you or anyone you know. If you are experiencing vision loss from any degenerative eye conditions, then it’s time to try a new approach. Either the Micro-Acupuncture system or the Acunova acupuncture system may help to support the health of your eyes.
