NEEDLING
Ask the patient to close their eyes and look upwards. Use
Shaoyin
a finger to push the eyeball upwards and insert the needle,
first slightly inferiorly, then perpendicularly, between the
eyeball and the inferior wall of the orbit, 0.5 to 1 cun. Note:
according to several classical texts, this point is contraindicated to moxibustion.
Caution: i. the needle should be inserted slowly without
lifting, thrusting or rotating; ii. immediately on withdrawal of the needle, press firmly with a cotton wool ball
for about a minute to prevent haematoma; iii. this needling method should not be attempted by those who have
not had appropriate clinical supervision.
