About Nerve-Stimulation Therapy
What can it treat?
Developed by Professor Sun Huiqing in 1919, Nerve-Stimulation Therapy, also known as the 7-star or plum blossom needling technique, has gained global recognition for its effectiveness in alleviating both acute and chronic pain. From common muscular discomfort to more complex neuropathic conditions, this therapy has been widely embraced. Conditions we address include: lower back pain, sciatica, frozen shoulder, generalized muscular pain, neuropathic pain, and pain associated with fibromyalgia and cancer.
How does it work?
Nerve-Stimulation Therapy involves the application of a small, non-invasive seven-star needle to gently stimulate nerve endings on the body's surface. As outlined by Professor Sun, this therapy aims to regulate the balance of the nervous system by targeting nerve endings in various skin regions. By doing so, it influences the equilibrium between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which are integral to our body's physiological functions and pain perception. This technique facilitates a connection from the external to the internal body through both the central and peripheral nervous systems.
What does it feel like?
This method elicits a sensation akin to acupuncture and is typically well-received by most patients. Treatment plans are tailored to each patient's specific needs and condition.
Dr. Linghan Bai, a third-generation descendant of Professor Sun Huiqing's family, received direct training in this technique from his predecessors and has now begun practicing at Spring Health in Ballarat. Dr. Bai completed his medical education in China before relocating to Australia in 2006. He has also undergone additional medical training in Australia and obtained certification from the Australian Medical Council. Furthermore, he holds two Master's degrees in Applied Science, specializing in Acupuncture clinical practice and research for Pain Management.
Across three generations, Dr. Bai's family has been integrating both Eastern and Western medicine to refine and apply this technique to a wide range of clinical scenarios. Prior to his move to Australia, Dr. Bai practiced Nerve-Stimulation Therapy in Wuhan, China. He has a particular interest in pain management for both musculoskeletal and internal medicine conditions. Nerve-Stimulation Therapy may provide support for various types of pain conditions.
