Micro Acupuncture™ is a new procedure involving 48 newly
discovered acupuncture points located only in the hands
and feet, and not associated with any other acupuncture
system. These points were discovered by Andy Freddy Dahlgren,
D.Ss., D. Ac., M.Ac .F., M.D. in Denmark in 1984 and researched
by Dr. Dahlgren and Dr. Per G. Otte, D. Sc., D. Ac., M.Ac
.F. More than 5,000 people have been treated with this
procedure throughout Europe, and over 10,000 people have
benefited from Micro Acupuncture treatment in the US.
98% of the patients treated have had a marked improvement
in their vision.
Micro Acupuncture™ is used for a variety of medically
diagnosed eye conditions. The most commonly treated conditions
include:
• Macular Degeneration
• Peripheral Retinopathy
• Glaucoma
• Stargardt's Syndrome
• Retinal Detachment
• Optic Neuritis
Andy Rosenfarb, of Westfield & Watchung, NJ, is one of six practitioners in the world who are
performing this procedure.

Acupuncture™ say about their experience.
Treatment
-
On the first visit, a vision field scan is performed, followed
by a report of findings. It is necessary to have a vision
test to determine the patient's current vision. The
patient will then receive five treatments over a period
of no more than 2 weeks. In addition to acupuncture, nutritional
supplements will be recommended.
- Therapy consists of acupuncture points only in the
hands & feet that will be stimulated for a period of
twenty-five minutes. (None of the needles are in close proximity
to the eyes).
- After five treatments a second vision test is conducted.
Two vision tests are compared. Now, it is possible to determine
if the treatments are working. Once positive change is noted,
treatment will continue until the patient is satisfied or
until there is no further improvement in the vision tests.
- The average number of visits varies and is based
on the severity of disease, and the length of time it has
existed. Most patients begin with a series of twenty treatments.
It is expected that the patient will need to return one
or two times a year to maintain the correction.
- For out of area patients, we suggest to use the
time of their stay as efficiently as possible. Patients
are encouraged to stay near the office for a 1 to 2 week
period (actually 8 to 10 days of treatments).
- Under the best conditions, a new patient is able
to get the first test in the morning of day one. They will
have two treatments during that day, and another three treatments
on day two. The second visual field test is then made on
the morning of the third day. The third visual field test
is done again after 15-20 additional treatments, to ensure
continued improvement.
New patients must understand that this is not a "miracle
cure." It takes time for some patients, while others
are able to see improvement from treatment to treatment.
Approximately 80% attained their expectations of improvement.
In only 2% of all patients treated, we noted a lack of improvement.
