acupuncture Ankle jerk

[appledroplarry]

SO this guy is really mean to ankles? I don't get it. Why do they call him the acupuncture ankle jerk?

[ozma68]

@appledroplarry Uh you're reading it wrong. It's not that he's some sort of douche bag, it's the technique and hand motions that he is doing. In other words, he is "jerking" the ankle. Besides how can this guy be a jerk? Listen to him constantly making sure that he isn't hurting his client in any way.

ok mam that will be 8000 dollars...

dmc is a hater of tcm an a comlete loser

[dmcn19]

@TheShaolinScholar I'm obviously not a hater... If you read my comment properly I am defending TCM and condemning (to a certain extent) modern western medicine.

I'm saying that this treatment IS helping in a REAL way. And even if one doesn't believe it is helping in the way that TCM explains it, one cannot deny that it will help in another way. If you have anymore questions, please let me know! I'd love to help explain and to discuss.

[dmcn19]

Even if he is really doing nothing with his treatments, the placebo effect increases the healing process in real, measurable ways. Besides, a western doctor would probably just throw a bunch of painkillers in her. Filling your body with chemicals (that don't even heal) is just as bad or worse.

[EverBloom100]

@Tarn1968 Is that why they cause blisters?

[ozma68]

Am I the only one who watches this to get relaxed? Cause there seems to be an awful lot of rage in the comments section...

[samjl4]

@ozma68 i know what you mean , i watch it because its relaxing but some internet trolls say that he's a fake, he clearly knows what hes doing

[ThMrksman]

@ozma68 i think most of the people who watch it to relax don't bother commenting haha

[darkness9994]

for anyone that doesn't know she strained her ankle. dr zhang in this video works he joint loose from tension and then jerks the ankle to pop the air sac between the joints. it will hurt upfront, but the pain will go away after a few minutes and the joint will have more mobility

[J3arc]

@darkness9994 and then it will hurt shortly there after, as no real healing is being done.

[darkness9994]

actually moving it back into place will help it heal faster. if it doesn't work why do people get it done?

[Goatoftheforest]

a video like this attracts foot fetish people like a light attracts a moth

[jonlscott]

@Goatoftheforest lmao

[SytheClaw]

cool

[BBalmost]

I hate this guy so much what an impostor

[BBalmost]

fuckin charlatan

[barkleysound]

she shouldnt be wearing slippers if her ankle hurts!

[SWITCHSCISSORS]

well-done!!!

[haymaker710]

Once I had an aching feeling in my ankle and I bent my foot back until it popped. It hurt a lot while I was doing it but once it popped the pain and the aching went away. This looks a lot similar to what I did to myself.

[humanplatypus16]

If she's having foot problems she shouldn't be wearing flipflops lol.

[jonlscott]

@humanplatypus16 i dont really see why, out of all footwear flipflops should affet the foot the least there hardly there (though i have no evidence so u may be right)

[harper16]

@humanplatypus16 frip frops

[wsjohnwsmith]

so.. where is the jerk?

[Avynater]

i think that the jerk is actually like a movement jerk, not like a mean person. like he jerked her ankle a lot, so that was the jerk or treatment.

[Avynater]

well i was replying to someone who did not see 'the jerk' aka i think he thought a mean, asshole jerk. but yeah, it doesn't take a rocket surgeon to read the whole reply/comments either.

[fatimmortal]

Up yours. :D

[baltiman70]

so.. where is the acupuncture?

[metalheadtilimdead12]

the needles are only a part of the practice

[loosedloon]

I might suggest some footwear with proper ankle support.

[Mermaids614]

Yes. Flip flops and extremely flat shoes that are in style for women now are dangerous! I started wearing flats and ended up having to wear an orthopedic boot for months due to ankle damage.

[STUNTS1516]

i myself dont actually believe in this stuff greatly i mea if my ancle was swollen i'd go too a hospital but i'll admit the swelling did deffinitly go down quite a bit so how should i know maybe theres something to all this after all.

[harper16]

im sure you wouldve seen the same effect if you'd just left it, it's called the body healing itself

im sure stretching muscles and increasing blood flow helps to a certain degree, which is what the guy appears to be doing here but all this stuff about "disappear cold winds" and meridians just sounds like crap to me

just like people believe in psychics and mediums, when its all just a lie to take your money

however i cannot ignore the fact that i watch these vids because they're ultra relaxing

[STUNTS1516]

i'd agree i dont believe in this sort of thing myself but i consider myself pretty open minded so i wouldnt argue with anyones views or acusethem of being less worthy then my own but i deffinitly agree it is very relaxing

[lcjkupke]

Me too! I don't know if I really believe it, but watching this stuff knocks me out! I also love cupping and chiropractic :)

[SkanRashke]

Overlay a "meridian" chart over a chart of the body's blood vessels.

Just think of meridians as "lines where along large blood vessels are clustered", which is why so much chinese therapy has to do with heat, stretching the muscles and bleeding. All to improve circulation. A few other things, too, but whatever. It does what it's supposed to(Improve circulation), but whether improving circulation will help your diharrea is up for debate :3

[thelumberjackjohn]

Ya ok didnt see much

[SkanRashke]

Dr. Zhang- where is your clinic located?

[lovedbyall28]

when he first looks at her feet he says chong chong chong....lol..i love his techiques though even if it is a quackery i like it alot : )

[jjacob12345678910]

looked swollen to me...

[pesadilla38]

yea he probably got in the buisness cuz feet turn him on he tottally sounded horny doing this

[thepowerofIandI]

you and chookter just sounded like complete idiots. fail. EPIC fail.

[jonlscott]

@thepowerofIandI saying epic fail makes you sound like a complete idiot

[thepowerofIandI]

@jonlscott Replying to my 2 year old comment to insult me just made you sound like an idiot as well.

[jonlscott]

@thepowerofIandI u actualy comeing back here to say that is pathetic

[thepowerofIandI]

@jonlscott No bitch, you can't cover up your stupidity by insulting me again about nothing. Go ahead, keep making yourself look worse by replying again.

[naratips]

Did she really pay money for him? I don't see any swelling or bruise on her ankle. Besides, if her ankle has something wrong, she should get really when somebody bend it like that.

[justinkennethmail]

You're very ignorant. The Chinese are the most empirical in their approach to medicine. Remember they are a society which did away with the concept of "god" because it was unprovable. After thousands of years these modalities are still used. because...They work.

[timmo2k]

yes of course, for thpusands of years weve treated cancer, sclerosis, TB. BULLSHIT. modern medicine has done that you fucking dumbass

[SkanRashke]

Actually modern medicine hasn't cured cancer, lol. And no one said chinese medicine would anywhere on this discussion.

[ColectvIndvidulism1]

Thank you for posting this informative video. Btw, in response to your comment about thousands of years of proven modality, you are correct. I think people who have no experience with this knowledge would do well to start with a book by Misha Ruth Cohen, titled:Many Paths To Wholeness.Also, on the subjects of meridianal healing/balancing, check out,"Do-it-yourself Shiatsu by Ohashi. These books are invaluable when it comes to restoring health to any suffering any electrical/pernicious influences

[foreveringreen]

I'm have to point out that just because they did away with a concept of god doesn't mean that their medicine works. their denying of god has nothing to do with the effiency of their medicine.

more so, just because their treatments have survived for thousands of years doesn't mean that it works. to fully prove that it works, you need to test it scientifically not anecdotedly. no amount of time will ever verify something to be true.

[justinkennethmail]

Of course, length of practice does not justify it alone. Just look at supersitious practices that have survived millienia. But there's tons of scientific literature backing up it's (accu) effectiveness. It's recognized by the WHO (world health organization, the health and medical branch of the U.N.) as effective for treating 30 different chronic and accute conditions.

[justinkennethmail]

Very logically sound argument. I am in agreemnt with your reasoning. But check the empirical data, it supports effectiveness of this modality. The cited examples, (historical agnosticism) was meant to demostrate a cultural inclination towards empirical thinking.

[foreveringreen]

i'll research it, thanks. no sarcasm.

and sorry for all the spelling and grammer mistakes. i rewrote that comment so many times so that I would meet my limit and still encompass all the information. they must have just slipped past me.

not that i'm looking for excuses or anything...

[SkanRashke]

There aren't any large blood vessels on the ankle, so if the tissues in that area were damaged, bruising would be seen within half an inch of the area that was damaged instead of on the ankle itself. Thats assuming that there's a burst arteriole or something, of course capillaries can burst but they're not really noticable when they do because of their size.

[smallfellow]

are you blind lmao? that purple and yellow line? right under the bone in the ankle

[kylekrauskopf]

man that would tickle lol

[davif3]

that's cool

[qloudz]

I find this video fascinating. Thanks for the upload deboy26!

[smallfellow]

Nah she'd just go see a physiotherapist. No surgery. It would take longer to heal, but would be probably a lot safer.

[sylvester134]

If she go see a western doctor, i think she will have to undergo operation and surgery.

[Gunwoo]

is her ankle broken?

[Tracy137]

Bonesetting? As in aligning the bones?  I must admit I find all of acupuncture and associated medicinal practices very interesting. :O)

[urbantea]

this is called bonesetting...
