Important Changes to the Community Starting This Month (August)

Hi everyone,

Starting this month (August), we are making changes to the content available to monthly members versus annual members.

Starting in August (tomorrow):

Monthly members will have the following access:
• All past and future, new Locals Webinars every month
• Live Labs - joining live and also to the recordings
• Ask questions on the forum
What's changing: Monthly members will no longer have access the monthly rotated webinars from the ASE Seminars website
Your current monthly rate will remain the same as long as you do not let it lapse

Annual members will have access to the following:
• Everything monthly members have, PLUS:
• Webinars from ASE Seminars website, rotated every month as they have been
• Additional videos and live streams: May be case studies, other webinars, etc.
• Increased discount to 20% off on-demand webinars and courses on the ASE Seminars website (excludes webinar bundles and cannot be combined with certain other sales or discounts)
*Whatever annual rate you have now will remain the same, as long as you do not let your membership lapse

For monthly members that want to upgrade to the annual one, the annual membership is $450 for the month of August. After that it goes back to $500.

If you have any questions email me at [email protected].

Thank you!

Josh

Perfusion vs. Blood Pressure

Hello,

Lately, I have been using relatively extensively the perfusion treatment, particularly on a patient suffering from MS. The benefits in this latter case were quite amazing, i.e., a significant improvement of energy and mobility, as well as of the general spirit. I treated this patient with almost exclusively EA perfusion treatments in the upper (T1-T5) and lower (T10-S2) segments, with weekly sessions over a period of 6-8 weeks.

This being mentioned, I also started wondering if the perfusion treatment may also offer benefits in terms of high blood pressure. Research has shown that acupuncture can reduce both the systolic BP (~ 5–10 mmHg) and the diastolic BP (~ 3–6 mmHg), as a result of (i) a reduction of the sympathetic nervous system, (ii) an increase of the parasympathetic activity, and (iii) the release of neurotransmitters such as endorphins, serotonin, and nitric oxide. An improvement of the vascular function and peripheral circulation is also evoked as a possible ...
