hey dr. Berg here in this video we’re

going to talk about fibromyalgia

I had several requests for it so I’m

just going to show you one of the many

things that I do and of course it’s not

going to fix the whole thing but it’ll

help improve the condition you’re gonna

need someone to do it on you but this is

the video the training video of how to

do the procedure

it’s an acupressure procedure that you

can learn sometimes it can create a huge

effect sometimes a very little effect

but I think it’s well worth teaching

people that have this condition because

it’s a very effective thing it’s using

acupressure alright so a little

background there’s two glands one is the

hypothalamus that’s in the brain it’s

deep inside it’s actually if you go one

inch forward from the top of the ear

straight in you’ll hit the hypothalamus

it’s severe it’s like the size about a

pea but it controls so many things it

controls the pituitary gland which is

the relay gland to the adrenals and all

these other things

now the pituitary is just just a little

forward to the hypothalamus okay so the

hypothalamus is the master gland the

pituitary is the middleman that’s going

to then do some other things down to the

body so if you if you can associate it

with the owner the football team which

is the hypothalamus the coach which is

the pituitary and then the quarterback

which is the adrenal gland okay so you

have those Ashlyn’s

that’s how it works so there’s two parts

of your body that you’re going to be

working with with this technique but

just realize that the adrenal gland

controls the anti-inflammatory and it’s

called cortisol cortisol is one of the

only anti-inflammatories in the body and

it gets through the inflammation but

this technique is not necessarily

working on that it’s working on the

pituitary effect because the pituitary

also releases something else called beta

Dorf ins beta endorphins are not

necessarily anti-inflammatory they are

anti pain and they’re probably 80% more

powerful than morphine so I’m going to

show you a way that I tap into it to

create a cool effect what you’re going

to be doing and this is the back of the

head in the front of the head you’re

going to be taking your fingers so your

middle fingers right here not not these

I’m not going to do that but these

middle fingers right here and you’re

going to be rubbing at a certain angle

real gently kind of vibrating on this

point here in this point here you’re

going to go one inch on the top of the

ear forward this way and right there and

then you’re going to kind of come down

I’m going to demonstrate it on someone

just so you can see it and and then

while you’re rubbing these two points

very gently you don’t to do it hard

you’re going to have the person either

touch a place that they have

inflammation or move a joint that’s

inflamed so you have those two options

now you’re gonna say well the whole body

hurts I understand that but just take

one part at a time so let’s say we want

to take a wrist or a finger or a foot or

an ankle or the neck or the shoulders

you’re going to take that you’re gonna

have them move that joint as as you’re

doing these points or pressing a sword

joint while you’re moving the point and

you’re going to ask them tell me when it

reduces okay more and more and more and

more and then you find the next spot

okay so let me just demonstrate how to

do this and you’ll have more

understanding of it okay so here we are

we have the ear right here and then we

have an inch forward okay just about

looks like with of my thumb which it

might look thumb is very very wide so

we’re gonna come right here and I’m not

flipping you off by the way and I’m

gonna come in an angle down this way

okay but I’m just gonna do that right

there I’m gonna do on both sides same

spot and I’m just vibrating my fingers

like this at 45 degrees roughly just

like that and you’re going to do this

right two minutes

and you can stop and rest now what are

you doing you’re activating these

acupressure points that are assisting

the pituitary and hypothalamus to be

able to release their own hormones

better and you might say well how do we

know what’s happening well you’ll see

when you do this technique you’ll see

the results you’ll see the inflammation

go down so you know it’s something’s

happening so it’s just a technique that

I developed as part of my favorite

myalgia workup so you would vibrate this

right here at 45 degrees right here very

softly doesn’t have to be hard make sure

you don’t mess up the person’s hair and

I like to vibrate it like that that’s

the exact motion that I do right there

okay okay so as as he’s bending his

wrist like he is let’s see his wrist

pain and there’s going to bend it right

there yeah and just someone’s gonna ask

him while I do this I’m gonna ask him

tell me when it feels a little better

and it’s gonna start loosening up if

it’s really stiff or a problem okay so

he can move the joint right or he can

press on let’s say there’s some

arthritis on his thumb so go ahead and

press like on your thumb right right

here yeah and find a spot that you can

press so let’s turn around like that

let’s say he’s pressing on this point

okay and I’m going to do this and then

tell me when the pain goes down okay and

then I’m gonna say find the next spot

and he’ll move around find the next spot

I’m trying to get him to find the

epicenter of where the pain is while I’m

doing these little points right through

here at 45 degrees okay he can keep

moving it all right and then he could

basically let’s say it’s in the shoulder

so I’d say shrug your shoulders up and

down keep doing that for like a minute

and it’s going to feel looser and looser

and looser and looser ankles you can

move those knees in different directions

you can press the press on a point on

your your leg or your ankle that’s been

not healing and so go ahead and try this

technique out problem algid see if it

works for you

hope you enjoyed the video
