<Description>
・Slept on a couch and woke up with right neck, shoulder and arm pain/pricking sensation 10 days ago
・The pain/pricking sensation had gotten worse and never gotten better
・The painful area was right side of lower neck and upper back (C6 to T2), right shoulder to chest and elbow
<Movement of Neck>
・Looking down -> Feel pain around right side of C7 to T1
・Looking up -> Feel pain around right side of T1 to T2
・Bending to right -> Feel pain around right side of T1 to T2
・Twisting to right -> Feel pain around right side of C7 to T2 and pricking sensation runs to right neck to chest area,
Feel afraid to twist to right side
＜Acupuncture Points Used＞
GV18 R.六谷 R.TE5 R.T3(2.5) R.T2(1) R.T5(1) R.LU7 R.内谷 R.GB38
*Chinese character ones are SEIDO acupuncture original points
*T indicates a thoracic vertebrae and # specifies the height. (2.5)/(1) indicates distance from a vertebrae.
＜Progress＞
・No pain/pricking sensation in all movements, but some dullness left on right shoulder to arm
・No afraid feeling when twisting to right
＜Implication＞
C6, C7 and T2 were pulled to right side. I also found some tight spots on right upper back area. Releasing tension precisely using distal acupuncture points can immediately relieve symptoms like this.
