Description

Based on 40 years of clinical experience, Matthew Bauer teaches a specific 5-point protocol for peripheral neuropathy (PN) that has yielded higher success rates than other methods.

This masterclass includes video demonstrations of actual treatments, explains the science behind needle-sparked nerve regeneration, and provides strategies for building clinician-patient trust through research-backed treatment plans. Matthew moves beyond subjective pain scales, teaching you how to use acupuncture needles as a diagnostic tool to monitor the objective progress of nerve sensitivity.

You will learn the exact sequence of the 5-point lower extremity protocol and 3-point upper extremity protocol, along with crucial insights on treatment spacing (dosage) that make the difference between temporary relief and life-changing recovery.

You will learn:

Details of the four main types of PN
Explaining the treatment process using research
Selecting the correct needle gauge
Stimulating each point for its therapeutic and diagnostic abilities
Spacing treatments throughout the entire treatment process
Ending the treatment process so that the patient's progress is as stable as possible
How to explain to patients when they need to return for tune-up treatments or a second series of treatments
