1.  Musculo-skeletal disorders (pain in  joints)
Knee pain

Mr. T. S. is an extremely obese (overweigh) individual who was afflicted with a recurrence of gout in his knee joint.  He was asked to apply Acutouch to the area.  After approximately 10 minutes, he literally danced on the spot to prove how pain free he was!

 

Carpal tunnel syndrome (wrist pain)

Mr. V. B., a middle-aged father of a doctor, had experienced pain and discomfort in his hand.  The treatment his son had prescribed had not alleviated his symptoms.  After two 20 minute applications of Acutouch, the patient was able to get back to playing his guitar for over 2 hours, without any discomfort afterwards.  A repeat nerve conduction test gave a result similar to the pre-treatment one, but it is expected the result will improve dramatically.

 

Tennis Elbow

A 53-year-old woman (Mrs. N.) came to me.  She had suffered from tennis elbow for 10 months.  In the course of treatment, she had received three cortisone injections.  These had given her only temporary and progressively minimal relief.

She was wearing a tennis elbow brace continually, but was unable to play tennis.   Mrs. N. received  Acutouch treatment three times a week for two weeks, twice for three weeks, ten minute applications on each day.

Within three weeks, Mrs. N. no longer required the tennis elbow brace for daily activities and within four weeks she was able to resume playing tennis with the use of the brace which I have advised her to use any time she plays.  After checking her elbow once a week, Mrs. N. reported that she has not had any recurrence of the elbow pain.   Nine weeks after the initial treatment of Acutouch, Mrs. N. was completely healed.   (Back to Index)

 

Low back pain

Case 1.  A 28-year-old nurse, Mrs. N. P., had a history of Scheuermann's disease.   For the preceding 4 years she had experienced lower back pain.  After 15 minutes of treatment, she said she felt cured.

Case 2.  M.E., a 29-year-old farmer, had strained his back lifting a heavy object the previous day.  He complained of severe pain and was unable to straighten his back more than 45 degrees.  His wife applied the Acutouch to his back for 45 minutes. 

After applying Acutouch, he walked away totally upright, virtually free of pain  and no longer used a cane.  (Back to Index)

 

Neck pain

Mrs. M. S., age 69, had had a wryneck for 3 days and was unable to rotate her neck.  Within 5 minutes of the application of Acutouch to her neck, she had regained the full range of movement.  The Acutouch was applied the following day.  Since then she has remained pain free.

 

Foot pain

Case 1.  A patient with foot pain was treated locally for 15 minutes. After that, he was able to walk out of my room without hopping as he did on his arrival.

Case 2.  Mr. S. is a 67-year-old golfer.  He presented me with a problem in his foot.  His foot had a deep scar.  On investigation, there had been three operations after a long standing staphylococcus aureus infection, that gave him an abscess on the foot, as well as endocarditis.  As a result of the third operation, fusion was performed.  The pain was extreme, especially upon standing and walking, and movement was impaired.  His life had come to a standstill - he could not play golf. 

After the first treatment of 25 minutes, the whole situation was improved by 80%.   The patient has acquired a set of Acutouch for himself and routinely self-administers  treatment twice each day for half an hour each time.  In his own words, "It has improved my life tremendously.  Thank you!"

Case 3.  A 62 year old male patient came to me with plantar pain of the right foot.  It was   basically an inflammation of the fascia.  He had had the inflammation for 18 months.  The pain was extreme with impaired movement when walking.  The cause was unknown.  Since the problem was not a life threatening one, I immediately applied the Acutouch.  No other treatment was administered. 

Four treatments of Acutouch were performed within 12 days.  After the first treatment, the pain had decreased by 80%.  After the fourth treatment, there was no more pain.   The patient could walk with a normal gait.  3 weeks later, the patient was still 100% better.  To this day, which is now 3 months later, I have not heard from him.  I take it that he is fully recovered  from that inflammation.   (Back to Index)

 

Thumb

Case 1.  A 57-year-old woman, Mrs. L., complained of rheumatoid arthritis of the left thumb which had been getting progressively worse over the preceding nine years.  After one 10 minute application of Acutouch base of the thumb, Mrs. L. is pain free.

Case 2.  Mrs. F.M., a young woman with severe pain in her right thumb for the preceding 3 months.  Her pain had diminished after just 5 minutes of treatment.

 

Swollen finger

J.P., a 42-year-old doctor had a paronychia on his left index finger.   Acutouch was applied.  Although he did not noticed much at the time of application, the following day, he was completely pain free and there was no evidence of redness or swelling.  No other treatment, including antibiotics, was prescribed.

 

The growth of tissue

No treatment had assisted a middle aged woman, Mrs. R.B., who had had marked fibromyalgia for eleven years.  Acutouch was applied daily to the tender areas, and within a few days her whole life changed for the better.  The pain went and her depression and lethargy (a great lack of energy) lifted.

 

Inflamed face

A young female patient had an abscess on the left side of her face above her upper teeth, with an enormous area of redness, heat and pain.  I recommended an antibiotic, which she was totally against. Since I could not perform acupuncture, I administered Acutouch therapy for 25 minutes.  Two days later, she came back for review and I hardly recognized her since the abscess had totally disappeared.  She informed me that 2 hours after the application of the Acutouch, she felt "terrific" and she had pressed against the abscess until it burst and drained.  What a fantastic result!  (Back to Index)

2.  Gastro-Intestinal Disorders:  Nausea & dizziness

Case 1.  Mrs. F. M. is a 40-year-old woman who has battled ongoing stomach problems.  No medical or surgical treatment has proved effective.

But the Acutouch has relieved her condition, so she feels relaxed and lives pain free.  The Acutouch has been applied by the patient twice a day for 30 to 60 minutes.   Now, the patient can  cook without feeling nauseous as well as brush her teeth without gagging.

Case 2.  Mrs. M. suffered from nausea and vertigo, which had lasted for several days.  After Acutouch was applied for 10 minutes, her symptoms were greatly diminished.   (Back to Index)

 

3.  Neurological disorders
Stroke / heart attack

Case 1.  I was over 72 years of age when I was suddenly suffered a heart attack.  This was some 18 months ago and at that time I was a very keen golfer.  Although I recovered from the heart attack, I was left with a partially paralyzed right arm and leg.  This obviously ended my golf game.    However, a short time ago I started using the Acutouch and immediately found a remarkable improvement in my right shoulder and leg.  The right shoulder was completely frozen, but now it has nearly 100% movement.  All the pain and numbness in my right leg has nearly disappeared.  At the moment, I am concentrating on my right hand, hoping that I can get back some feeling in my fingers so that I can resume my golf.

 

Case 2.  Mrs. M. suffered a severe cerebral infarct which completely paralyzed her left side.  Fortunately it did not develop into a coma, but she was totally disabled on that side. Her vision was badly damaged and she only had partial use of the right side of each eye and none in the left halves of each eye.  Her speech was somewhat slurred.  I started treatment within about five hours of the stroke.  

I gave her about three hours of Acutouch therapy treatment, using all the points in the Users Manual.  Immediately after the first treatment, she could already feel some sensation in her left shoulder and left thigh.   She said she felt as  "thawing".  The following day, before the second treatment began, she felt my hand on her left cheek, and the left side of her face was less droopy than the night before.  

After the second day's treatment, she could bend her arm and leg somewhat.  The third, fourth and subsequent treatments produced continued improvement.  To the great surprise of her doctors.  By the tenth day, she could stand with assistance.  Although her neurologist and physiotherapist don't hold out much hope for her eyes and left hand, I feel pretty optimistic.  She is in rehabilitation and improving daily, and at this stage actually feels the Acutouch in all areas.  Thank you so much for introducing this amazing therapy to me.

Pain after the surgery
Mrs. J. B., a 49-year-old patient who had had cancer in the left breast, had also had two ribs removed to prevent spreading.  Although the latter diagnosis was not confirmed on histological examination, she experienced pain at the site of the operation due to entrapment of the intercostal nerves.  The Acutouch was applied locally for 15 minutes on three consecutive days.  After that, the patient was totally free of pain.

Thigh pain

Treatment of the thigh is usually considered a waste of time, but in the case of a young male, the area of numbness was greatly diminished on just one application of the Acutouch to the thigh.  (Back to Index)

4.  Disorders of ear, nose and throat

"I have treated numerous cases of sinusitis.   Most of them range from moderate to fairly severe, with pain, headaches, and copious mucous.  Within 3 treatments of the Acutouch, I have seen improvement in 90% of the patients." 

Nasal congestion
Case 1. 

Mr. B. graded the degree of sinus pain and nasal congestion.   I treated him with Acutouch.   After one treatment Mr. B. felt relief.

Case 2.  Mrs. E. complained of acute maxillary sinusitis.  As the Acutouch was applied just beneath the knee, she gasped and held her hands to her face, stating she had felt "something clear" immediately.  

Runny Nose

A 44-year-old physician, suffered from a runny nose.  Dr. C. applied Acutouch to the frontal region of his face in keeping with the "runny nose" protocol in the Acutouch manual while watching the news.  Some of the points were extremely acute and elicited the nose to go from intermittent streaming to "flooding".  Within fourteen minutes, the nose suddenly dried up and the nasal passages were "very clear".  

He did not awake once during the night and breathing was very good for the following day.   The Acutouch was applied for two more days, and the active points became less acute.  No medication was taken, and the nasal passages have remained clear.  (Back to Index) 

5.  Respiratory disorders 

Case 1.  Nine year old I. M's asthma responded well to the application of Acutouch.  The measure of his peak flow increased by 20% after 10 minutes from 200 l/min to 240 l/min.  

Case 2.  Mr. I. S. fell from a roof and fractured 4 ribs.   Acutouch therapy diminished his pain to the extent that he was able to breathe better.  

6.  Urological disorders:  spider bite

The case was peculiar given that within 30 days of a spider bite, the patient developed an infection within the prostate.  I decided to apply Acutouch to the scar.   As a result, there was an outpouring of pus via the urinary tract.

I really believe that the Acutouch therapy on to the external area of the scar of the spider bite and prostate precipitated an elimination of the infection.   The patient now has no pain.  

7.  Depression

I have treated two cases of depression with Acutouch.  Within 4 treatments there was a marked improvement of between 80-90%. To my mind, it is absolutely vital for people who are predisposed to depression, to be able to self-administer a non-invasive treatment, such as Acutouch therapy.  (Back to Index)
