Hippocrates, the Founder of modern medicine,stated: "A wise man ought to realize that health ishis most valuable possession and learn how to treathis illnesses by his own judgment. "INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SCHOOL OFCHI ENERGY ACCUPRESSURE ERASABLEPAIN CHART:The major spots to be pressed are shown on theChart as black dots. Sore spots may be found inother locations. The entire muscles in a painful areashould be searched for constrictive knots or sorespots.If pain is not erased by following directions onthe School of Chi Energy Erasable Pain Chart, you shouldconsult a physician.THESE ARE THE BASIC DIRECTIONS:WHAT IS ACUPRESSURE?Acupressure is firm, controlled and timedpressure applied by thumb, fingers, or elbow, onspecific pain-causing "sore" spots of the muscles. Nodrugs or other medicines are used. "Sore" spots areactually a pattern of small knots, which constrict theflow of blood and oxygen, causing a painful musclespasm.Acupressure is both safe and healthful. SimplePressure on the constrictive knots will melt them, tofree the flow of blood and oxygen. The acupressuretherapy is momentarily painful. Pain should becontrolled by a variance of pressure to individualtolerances.On completion of acupressure and suggestedmuscle-stretching exercises, the very source of thepain is usually removed - often permanently - andblood circulation is enhanced in the areas treated.Heavily muscled people will require morepressure than babies or the elderly. If the spot isextremely sore and tender, several mild applicationsof acupressure, over a period of time, can be used.Remember, you press each spot only as hard as canbe reasonably tolerated.For shoulder, back and seat areas, an elbowrather than thumb or fingers may be used. Also,when a smaller person, such as a child, is erasingspots on heavy-muscled adults, an elbow cangenerate the required pressure to erase pain. Whenpain is being erased from spas med muscles, the painmay move from one place to another - temporarily even some distance away. Search for sore spots nearthe new pain location, and erase them. Don't getdiscouraged. Remember you are not merely maskingpain, as with drugs. Instead, the pain erasure can bepermanent!Temporary pain relief is immediate, buteasy-to-do muscle-stretching exercises, as directed,are required for permanent pain erasure. Stretchingtwice per day for several days is usually required.Severe cases may require muscle-stretchingexercises over a longer period of time.Following surgery of any type, acupressureshould be used to speed the healing process, andrelieve pain. It should be started even before stitcheshave been removed.Press spots shown as black dots on the Posterto check if they are sore. Apply pressure to sore spotsonly; pressure on other spots is not necessary unlessotherwise indicated. Note the shape of the musclestructure, and check the area around the shown dotsto see if there are sore spots. Apply pressure, andhold it, to sore spots only. Check the entire length ofthe muscle.PRESS EACH SORE SPOT ON HEAD,HANDS, AND FEET FOR 5 SECONDS. COUNTOUT THE 5 SECONDS: "one-thousand-and-one,one-thousand-and-two, one-thousand-and-three,one-thous an d-and-four, one-thousand-and-five".PRESS EACH SORE SPOT ON NECK,SHOULDERS, TORSO, ARMS, AND LEGS FOR 7SECONDS. COUNT OUT THE 7 SECONDS:"one-thousand-and-one, one-thousand-and-two,one-thousand-and-three, one-thousand-and-four,one-thousand-and-five, one-thousand-an d-six, onethousand-seven".JUST BEFORE GENTLY RELEASING THEPRESSURE, MOVE YOUR FINGER, THUMB, ORELBOW IN A " " SHAPE.The average pressure is 5 pounds on head andneck; 10 pounds on hands and feet; 16 pounds onshoulders, torso, arms, and legs; 30 pounds on seat.You can check the amount of pressure you are usingby pushing down on your bathroom scales. Theamount of pressure applied should be adjusted toindividual tolerances.Warning! Pain medication (even overthe-counter) can erase the acupressure and corrective exercise therapy on your muscles. Drugs work toARTIFICIALLY stimulate circulation and relaxmuscles. The MUSCLES can quickly become drugdependent because they are artificially relaxed. Theycan then revert to old, painfully constrictivememories and again cause muscle spasm.DO NOT GIVE UP TOO SOON. Be sure youhave followed the complete muscles when searchingfor tender spots. Sore spots, particularly in adjoiningareas, or anywhere on the body, could be the triggermechanism causing the pain. Include armpits andunder groin in your search.

number of acupressure treatments needed is one foreach decade (ten years) of age. Be sure you havefollowed the exercises specified for each area, at leasttwice a day for 4 or 5 days.If you are trying it on yourself, you may not bepressing hard enough to melt the constrictive knots.Ask a friend to help you. If a spot is extremelytender, apply heat with massage, heating pad, or awarm shower, before using acupressure,Acupressure applied with Chi-generated heat worksbest (see School of Chi Energy Power Chart).STOP PAIN, SWELLING, AND BRUISING ONBUMPS AND SPRAINS WITH ACUPRESSURE:As soon as possible after a bump, bruise, orsprain, begin using the acupressure. DO NOTAPPLY ICE! Ice constricts the blood flow and willactually retain swelling and bruising in the affectedarea. You must begin treatment immediately oninjury.FIRST: Elevate the injured part high enough toallow the blood to flow back to the heart and lungs.The idea is to push the accumulated blood out of theinjured area.SECOND: Begin at the edges of the injury andapply pressure with your thumb. Hold each spot forthe 5-7 seconds. The process is quite painful, but theresults are worth it. Work your way around to thevery center of the injury, even if the skin is broken(cover an open area with a sterile bandage first).THIRD: You may have to apply hard pressureseveral times over a period of several minutes,depending upon the extent of injury. It is best ifsomeone else applies the pressure, since the naturalreflexes of the body may prevent your hurtingyourself that much.FOURTH: Gently exercise the injured partwhile still elevated, and then while in normalposition. After a short rest) you are free of pain andswelling, and back in action again!These procedures should be followed even if abone is cracked or broken. The Chinese set the bonesin this manner. Each day they carefully examine theposition of the bone to assure that it is growing backin exactly the right position. If the bone is put in aplaster cast, this examination is impossible. We arenot recommending that you should set your ownbroken bones. We are simply stating that it has beendone by many with good results. Plaster does notallow the blood vessel massage necessary to stoppain and itching. You may have to use a restrictiveform that can be removed daily for massage andexamination, otherwise the bone may break a bloodvessel and cause internal bleeding.ERASING A TENSION HEADACHE:Examine the drawing of the back of the head onthe Poster. Note the line of dots which form a patternat the base of the skull. Press each spot, and if it issore, hold the pressure for 5 seconds, counting outthe seconds.Spread fingertips about an inch apart, andbeginning at the top of the head, press in a broadrow to each ear. Again, beginning at the top of thehead, press in a broad row down the back of thehead, checking for sore spots, and holding each onefor 6 seconds. Exercise: Upon completion, firmlymassage the entire scalp with fingertips or butts ofpalms.Now look at the drawing of the front of thehead on the Poster. Start with the spot at the bridgeof the nose between the eyes. If sore, press for 6seconds, using finger or thumb. Then start at the dotshown above the left eye, and press upward towardthe eyebrow. Now feel the bone structure around theeye cavity. Press all the muscles around each eyecavity firmly, holding for 5 seconds each.The Exercise is: Stretch eye muscles by openingeyes as wide as you can and closing them as tight asyou can, 4 times. With eyelids closed, look up, lookdown, look left, look right. Repeat 3 times.Next, using thumb and fingers, pinch acrosseach eyebrow the entire width, holding each pinchfor 5 seconds.Again, using all fingertips slightly spreadapart, press in a row across entire forehead,checking for sore spots. Hold each one for 5 seconds.Exercise by: massaging forehead.Using thumb and curved fingers, above andbelow jawbone, press along entire jawbone, fromeach ear to chin. Press muscles around entire mouth,and hold each spot for 5 seconds. Exercise by:opening mouth wide and closing mouth tightly, 5times.Bend chin down and to the left, so that themuscles on the left side of your neck are easier tofeel. With fingers and thumb, squeeze neck musclefrom your left ear down to where it attaches to theleft side of your collarbone at two points. Hold eachsqueeze for 7 seconds. Then place fingertips at topedge of collarbone and gently press skin and smallmuscles over the edge, reaching toward theunderside of the collarbone. Start at the "v" of thecollarbone, and move across to your left arm joint.Hold each tender spot for 7 seconds. You may find areal "oucher" that's been bringing your headacheback again and again. Repeat the entire procedurefor the right side of the neck. 2012 The Online School of Chi Energy www.chienergyheals.comAll International Rights Reserved.4

(Tension Headache - continued)Again, examine the muscle structure shown onthe back of the neck on the Poster. Start at the skulland follow each of the muscles down to where theyattach to your shoulder bones. Also check each spotacross to your arm joints, pressing skin and smallmuscles over the edge, reaching toward theunderside of the shoulder bones. Exercise by: movinghead backwards, with chin in air; then forward, withchin down, to stretch neck muscles. Thenrhythmically turning head to far left, then far right,gently increasing side vision. If movement is jerky,search for additional sore spots. Forcefully shrugyour shoulders several times.If your job requires your being in one positionfor long periods of time, such as watching a computerscreen, try to develop a habit of forcefully shruggingyour shoulders several times during a work session.This will help prevent tension headaches fromoccurring.TO REMOVE A SINUS HEADACHEAND CONGESTION:See front of head drawing on the Poster. Usethe following steps to "drain sinuses" even if spotsare not sore. Press the spot between the eyes, on thebridge of the nose, then upward against eacheyebrow, and downward over tear ducts. Search forsore spots around each eye cavity. Then press spotsON FACE down each side of nose. Hold each spot for5 seconds. Press inward toward nose flange and hold5 seconds. Exercise your eyes by opening wide andshutting tight, 4 times. Then with eyelids closed,look up, look down, look right, look left, 4 times.Now with your finger or thumb, feel the skullbone across the middle of each cheek toward eachear. Press up and under edge of cheekbones, holding5 seconds each. Massage cheeks. Search for sinuscavities above each eyebrow. Hold each spot for 5seconds, then massage the areas. Next, usingfingertips, slightly spread apart, press in a line fromeach eye to each ear.Next, start with the spot at the jawbone hinge,and press in a circle around each ear, pressing firmlyagainst the skull, and holding each spot for 6seconds. Exercise by opening mouth wide, thenclosing mouth tightly) 4 times.Now lean your head horizontally to the left andhold it there for 15 seconds. Then lean your headhorizontally to the right and hold it there for 15seconds. This is to drain your inner ear passages.You should now be free of a sinus headache,with your sinuses clear and breathing easy.TO REMOVE A "MIGRAINE" HEADACHE:Use fingertips slightly spread and press acrossentire top of head. Hold each spot 5 seconds. Nowusing fingertips, press all muscles above each ear.Hold 5 seconds. Do both sides of head, even if pain isonly on one side. Massage top and sides of headfirmly. It is important to press firmly enough to meltthe constrictive spots, to free the flow of blood andoxygen. You should now be free of the "migraine"headache. If not, follow instructions and Exercisesfor Tension Headache.EYEACHE:(1) Pinch eyebrow between finger and thumb,the full length of each eyebrow. (2) Press upwardnext to nose cavity against eyebrow. (3) Press spotsaround each eye. Hold each tender spot 6 seconds.Exercise: Close eyelids, and look up, down, right, andleft, 3 times. If pain persists, do spots for TensionHeadache.EARACHE:(1) If pain is in right ear, lie down on left sidewith left ear against pillow, for at least 15 seconds, toallow right inner ear to drain. (If in left ear, doopposite.) (2) Press in a line around each ear, on themuscles which attach the ear to the skull. (3) Pinchany sore spots on ear between thumb and finger(every place where you can pinch the ear) for 5seconds each. (4) Earache may be caused by waxbuildup. You can get wax remover at a pharmacy.

With thumb and finger, pinch along entirefront side of arm muscle, between shoulder andelbow, pinching each sore spot firmly for 7 seconds.Do other arm.Now have the subject lie on the floor or table,face down, and check along both sides of spine, fromshoulders all the way down (see the two rows of dotson the Poster).Check for sore spots at the lower edges of theshoulder blades. Firmly press the skin against theedge and under the shoulder blade. Hold each sorespot for 7 seconds. If you have trouble locating thelower shoulder blade, have the subject move armslightly up and down, or twist slightly, so thatshoulder blade is seen.Now have the subject sit up. Check for sore spotin middle of shoulder blade (not shown on Poster).Stand at side of subject, facing opposite direction.Put one wrist under subject's arm and lift upwards,while using other elbow to press on spot in middle ofsubject's shoulder blade. Hold 7 seconds. Now moveto other side of subject and do other shoulder blade.Exercise One: Now have subject stand up, andstretch left arm straight out to left, palm up andopen, with thumb pointing as far backward aspossible. Very slowly rotate hand as far as possiblewhile breathing out. Very slowly breathe in whilerotating hand back to the starting point. Do this 4times. Do the same with right arm, 4 times.Exercise Two: While standing, subject shouldclasp hands behind neck, and stretch elbows as farbackward as possible, then move elbows as farforward as possible. Repeat 3 times.Exercise Three: Subject must shrug shouldersat least 4 times, several times during the day. Reallyshrug them. With head and neck stretched as highas possible, pull shoulders as low as possible. Then,push shoulders as high as possible, while loweringhead as far as possible.The subject should be free of shoulder pain ifyou have searched the entire muscle areas, anderased all sore spots, and the subject has followedthe exercises.CHEST MUSCLE PAIN(LESSENS SEVERITY OF CHRONIC ANGINAAND HELPS BREATHING):(1) Keep head and chest elevated. If breathing isdifficult, use bent forefingers to press at both sides ofbottom of ribcage, pressing slightly up and under thebottom ribs. Hold for 7 seconds. (2) If you cangenerate Chi Power, gently hold the palm of yourhand over the sufferer's chest where pain is mostsevere, and direct Chi there. Have the subject purselips to inhale slowly, then exhale slowly. (3) If subjecthas had heart surgery, you will need to check allmuscles between ribs for sore spots. Especially in thecenter front and at sides. Using thumbs orfingertips, press entire ribcage across chest fromcenter front, around side, to spine in back.Exercise: Hold fists together on front of chest.Then swing elbows back as far as possible.Straighten arms fully outward to sides, hands openwhile slowly inhaling. Return to starting point, whileslowly exhaling. Do 4 times. NOTE: SPC-USA ChiPower exercises can greatly enhance circulation thatwill help build lungs and lessen angina symptoms.NECK MUSCLE PROBLEMS:The neck muscle which starts just behind theear lobe and attaches to the collarbone can be thecause of a lot of problems, including chest pain,earache, toothache, or shoulder pain, even if youhave no pain in the neck. It may have been causedby whiplash or by holding the head in the sameposition for long periods of time, such as watching acomputer screen. It is also a difficult muscle to findon most people. To find the one on the right side, youmust turn your face downward and far to the left.Use bent forefinger and thumb to squeeze themuscle, or push against it with fingertips, to checkfor sore spots. Follow the muscle all the way to thecollarbone where it attaches in two s
