Japanese Acupuncture

Japanese Acupuncture Dedicated to celebrating health and well being, Japanese Acupuncture embodies caring attention with the highest standard. Frank Aoi feels right at home.

The secret of good health is in a balance of the mind and body. Western science has finally been catching up with evidence which suggests mental health impacts physical wellbeing. Japanese Acupuncture excels in achieving the goal, and in so doing, rediscovering a healing power of our mind and body. Located in the Downtown Phoenix Arts District in the Alta Phoenix Lofts, Y. Prior to becoming an acupuncturist, Frank attended San Francisco Art Institute, studying painting and photography. He worked at De Young Museum, published two books of his art photography then went on to own contemporary art galleries in both Santa Fe, NM and New York City.. His own health issues led him to the healing powers of acupuncture, as well as massage, craniosacral therapy, and reiki. Frank holds a Diplomat of Oriental Medicine from NCCAOM (National Certification Commission for Acupuncture). He is licensed in Arizona and New Mexico. What Is Acupuncture? Acupuncture has over 2000 years of history with clinically proven medical results. It is based on empirical studies on human bodies, and is not based on mysticism or philosophy. Its concept, the balance of Yin & Yang, or the homeostasis of polar opposites, has not changed. Acupuncture points used thousands of years ago are still used today. Acupuncture does not have a similar anatomy to Western science, instead it has tested effective functions. The major difference between acupuncture and Western science is that acupuncture treats the body as a whole. Sterile and disposal needles are gently inserted in the body along the acupuncture energetic channels, called meridians. Japanese Acupuncture technique is non-invasive and painless to many.

I had a person came in today saying taking 2000 mg of metformin daily. This is a slow su***de! You cannot be this much ignorant and uneducated, gullibly taking the drug just because a doctor ordered. Just like foods and drinks, know what you are talking in. Good luck.

One of the truths of this world is:
“I love my self, and I love YOU!”
Remeber Love stands only on the present tense, not on the past or the future.
If you have an anxiety/depression issue, start loving yourself, and attain the highest level of the Consciousness. (Can you define what is the highest level?) Good luck.

When people call me and the first thing they as is cupping or somthing, I know they don’t know anything about accupuncture. Why the gadgets? When acupuncture is more powerful than anything else, we don’t need to add anything else.

If your practitioner uses gadgets, I would say that he/she doesn’t know about acupuncture.
More incompetent a practitioner, more likely to used gadgets. Acupuncture is 100% skill oriented.

Where does an acupuncturist fail? Let me count the ways.
1: Lack of overall vision on treatment protocol. He does a same technique over and over no matter the symptoms, and/or, know only a tit-for-tat treatment.
2: Lack of diagnostic knowledge with Oriental Med.
3: Incompetent palpation skills.
4: Lack of insight into client’s mind, especially the emotions.
5: Lack of visual clues for assessment, for example, not noticing how the posture and gait are.
6: Forcing his trchnique and ideas into a client’s body. Always a bad idea.
7: Lack of communication skills.
8: Not knowing where to insert an needle.
Finding an insertion point is absolute precision! Sometimes, only 1/16 inch differentce in location could cause a day and night difference.
9: Painful accupuncture. Never would I take it!
Induction of slight pain is, in a certain condition, beneficial. However, acupuncturist must be a master in order to perform. I am not the master…not yet, but I don’t intend to do so in the first place. Many of my clients fall asleep.
10: Allowing clients to leave without a post acupuncture assessment.

There is a saying: “Western Med. treats the diseases, Oriental Med. treats a person.”

Most people we see in our clinics have had medical cares and advice for sometime but have experienced not much improvements.

We offer no chemical drugs, only natural supplements, and we have not reffered anyone to a surgeon to this date.

Symptoms improve when we treat the real cause and as a whole body. Specialization is a western idea. Acupuncture has never been thought as something specializing: it is always the whole body treatment so that every symptoms will fall into places and improve.

If you want to be away from chemicals drugs and its side effects and want to increase the sense of well-being, we are always on your side.

I don’t do cupping or guasha: because #1, not so effective when compared to hands-on modlaity such as cranial or massage therapies, #2, no need to do such thing if acupuncture is done right!

On Anxiety Once Again

As I mentioned in the past, anxiety is always about the past issues, projecting into the future. You are bounded by past experience and memory, therefore you will be also bounded by future experience.

Some people carry this burden till their death. I call these people true zombies, not living in the present moment but with grief and fear of the past and the future as if they are cursed.

How do you unbound from this kind of trauma? If you know that anxiety is about the past and the future, then you need to be in the present moment. How do you make yourself in the present moment? You must use the present tense in your mind and colloquially. Not “I was” or “I will”, but “I am” and “I do”. Do you wake up each morning saying “I was”? No, you look forward to “what-is” for the day.

Another thing is that, if you are bounded by the past time and the future time, then how do you unbound? You must search something that is not in the time domaine.

For example, thanks to Einstein, we know about the light. The light is a photon, and a photon does not experience “time”. At the speed of light, time does not exist.

When you “see”, say faces of loved ones, it is the brain interpreting as familiar faces. Excitation by photons hitting the retina coverts it as electric signal to the visual cortex of the brain, and the brain interpreting as, what we call, “seeing”.

But what are you “perceiving” really? The reality is that you are surrounded by and are in the timelessness of photons.

Yet, most of you are not aware of the experience. Shift your intention of “seeing” to “perceiving”, let your mind go, be calm, experience what is in front of your eyes, the timeless of all. Then, you are no longer in the time domaine, free from what the time binds such as death.

Infinity is still time bound, everlasting is also time bound? Can you find something that does not belong in the time domaine?
I’ll let you think about it rather than answering. Connect with your heart, you already know what it is.

Since you are not in the time domaine, you are no longer bounded by the past and future issues such as anxiety, sorrow, depression, etc.

What is the ultimate and the True Freedom? Personal freedom? Civil rights? Money and power? But you are still swayed by emotions. The true freedom is to be free from all emotions so that you do not “move” no matter what happens to you. You are always calm, not judging yourself and others, but accepting the As-Is-Ness of the Present Moment! You are the Unmovable, thus you are totally free.

Get rid of anxiety as soon as possible, for it is a total waste of time. Not knowing your true self is painful. Question is: “What are you really and truly”?

Find it out! That is your salvation.

Good luck.
