The Stiperpuncture is a new variant of acupuncture

The development about the STIPER began in 1996, as a necessity : my wife as a therapist , also dedicated to Acupuncture, and specialized in children’s treatments, wanted to replace the needles, because of the fear that she noticed in most of the children and also for other adult patients who have the same aversion to needles.

The Stiperpuncture scientific basis dated back to Germany at the end of the 19^th century, when an homoeopath, Dr. Auguste Weihe noticed that specific points related to a disease, had a painful reaction pressing on the body surface.The study and subsequent results were published in 1886.

Dr. De la Fuye ,a studious of Traditional Chinese Medicine, realised that 153 of the Weihe points coincided with acupuncture points.Then he used in parallel traditional needles and a new tiny one similar to thumbtackS , that he fixed to obtain a permanent stimulation, obtaining better results.

These facts, plus the fear related to needles in some patients, lead us to investigate and to find methods and techniques to stimulate permanently, whithout applications problems and successfully We’ve been using this technique the last 10 years.

We focused our investigation in all methods to make a effective non-invasive acupuncture, which led us to experiment with digitpuncture, seeds, magnets, suction cups and small balls of clay ,musictherapy, and chromotherapy ,mainly with gems and quartz

We thought that a quartz with a behaviour similar to clay would be ideal ,and we tried the idea of having a quartz and being able to be flexible with a good plasticity we mixed clay with quartz dust but it didn’t work.

It took 7 years to achieve a spongy and absorbent quartz, which we have called STIPER . this way we have the advantages and properties of quartz and We can combine it with others therapies like chromotherapy or by adding a few drops of homeopathy, herbal medicine, Bach’s flowers or sound .This quartz with a texture similar to cotton, helped us to improve and exceed the disadvantages concerning to small quartz crystals because of their irregularity and their sharp edges were not comfortable and can produce small lesions .

It is important to be in a relaxed environment. Open your hand and put a Stiper in the palm. Breathe deeply three times, while relaxing the muscles and concentrating your attention on the Stiper. Within a few minutes, you will begin to notice the sensation of the Stiper: You may feel a slight tickle or heat (each person will notice the vibration of the Stiper in his/her own way). What you will feel is your own energy that the Stiper is returning to you, amplified and regulated. (This is one of the properties of the quartz crystal.)

Comparative table which shows the effectiveness of an acupuncture session the first day of treatment with a result of 7 on the scale of 0 to 10, and this efficiency decreases during the week ending with a 3 of effectiveness, that’s why we recommend to repeat the second session 24h later, to maintain the Effectiveness.Podemos ver también la We can also see the representación la aplicación de la acupuntura combinándolo con la Stiper Puntura lo cual nos permitirá obtener de esta forma una continuidad de la terapia que hayamos realizado con unos resultados más estables y uniformes representation of an application of acupuncture combined with Stiper which will allow us to obtain a continuated improvement of the therapy that we have done with more stable and uniform results .

PHYSICAL PAIN: Gives immediate relief to lumbago, tendonitis; muscle, bone and joint pains.

REFLEX ZONES: Feet, hands, and face.

ACUPUNCTURE POINTS: It is not so necessary to put STIPER on the exact point as it is when using needles: STIPER will work on the point that is nearest.

CHAKRAS: Place on all to balance them, or only on specific chakras to work on them.

It is very useful in the prevention and treatment of SPORT INJURIES.

STIPER is very effective in SKIN and BEAUTY TREATMENT: Wrinkles, spots, pimples, black heads, boils, inflammations

EMOTIONAL HEALING: Anxiety, depression, stress

The painful points pressed (AH-SHI) were discovered by SUN ZSU MIAO (581-682).He discovered that pressing this points help to relieve the pain in low back pain, muscular contracture , tendonitis and are very sensitives especially in :

Head and neck

Dorsal region

Lumbar and Lumbosacral region

Hips

Knees

Shoulder, elbow, epicondylitis (tennis elbow)

Apitherapy - Apipuncture

Chromotherapy - Chromopuncture

Flower Essences - Floralpuncture

Fitotherapy - Fitopuncture

Homeopathy - Homeopuncture

Reiki - Reikipuncture

Reflexology - Refloxopuncture

Polarity Therapy – Polarpuncture

Stiper -Puntura

HOW TO USE IT

Firstly we have to select the appropriate acupuncture point, secondly we set the stiper on the skin with small pieces of cut sticker 2.5 x 3 cm. and will leave them from 1 to 6 days.

In sensitive areas like the face ,we’ll leave it from 30 to 40 minutes,and we can reuse it again from 6 to 8 times using it only for singular use.

The renewal of the stiper it depends on the patient emotional load,because the quartz will be polluted as higher as the level of unbalanced energies and external factors are.

For example, when we are treating an articulate pain,usually will leave it fixed from 6 to 7 days but when the problem is related to anxiety or stress we recommend to replace it everyday at the beginning and space it when gets better(2 or 3 days).

We applied the stiper directly to the skin except in some extremely cases where the sensitive skin show a slight irritation despite having used a hypoallergenic adhesive, and in this case we’ll put an adhesive paper or tissue between the skin and Stiper.

Apply the STIPER in acupuncture points, we'll get the action specified for each item, extending the circulation of Qi and blood, such as:

1R to treat disorders caused by excessive liver fire and emptied of Kidney Yang. It is very useful in clinical practice to treat the diseases in the cases of stagnation of Qi and Xue like the cold-dry and chronic diseases caused because pathogenic cold has penetrated deep.

Electric Moxibustion with STIPER

Put the STIPER in selected points fixing with adhesive,then apply heat with a small 5W lamp, until the patient feel the heating

Getting moxibustion or thermotherapy, by conduction, convection, radiation .

Thermotherapy by conduction consists on heating of body's organic tissues for therapeutic purposes through the application of system bodies on the skin or mucous membranes ,without exceeding the limit of heat tolerance , usually reaching 42-43 º C up to 46 times - 48 º C. The action mechanism of this therapeutic technique is based on the vibration of the cells of the contacted tissues.

Thermotherapy by convection is the propagation of the heat by means of a liquid or gas through the translation movement of the particles.

Thermotherapy by radiation : is the heat's propagation without the need of a media ,shaping a electromagnetic wave, which is called calorific or heat wave, through infrared ray. Electromagnetic waves impinge on the cells increasing the vibratory movement vibration and therefore the temperature.
