Section 2 - Musculoskeletal / Neuroanatomic Acupuncture
This section is designed to review various musculoskeletal and
neuroanatomic acupuncture techniques.
After completing Section 2, participants will be able to:
1. Compare different levels (superficial to deep) of musculoskeletal
acupuncture treatments.
2. Identify the neuroanatomical targets of each level of treatment.
3. Design treatments for common musculoskeletal pain problems.

Financial Disclosure
In order to comply with the ACCME’s Updated Standards for Commercial Support, The American
Academy of Medical Acupuncture has implemented a disclosure process to ensure that anyone in a
position to control the content of an educational activity has disclosed all relevant financial
relationships with any commercial interest. Per these updated standards. The faculty presenters
were required to disclose all financial relationships. The ACCME defines a “commercial interest” as
any proprietary entity producing health care goods or services consumed by or used on patients. It
does not consider providers of clinical service directly to patients to be commercial interests. The
ACCME considers “relevant” financial relationships as financial transactions (in any amount) that
may create a conflict of interest and occur within the 12 months preceding the time that the individual
is being asked to assume a role controlling content of the educational activity.
Disclosure Information:
Presenters have nothing to disclose.

Surface Release Techniques (SRT)
• Applied to loose connective tissue
• Helps underlying muscles
• Treats surface layer directly and provides avenues for
release of deeper pathology
• From the deeper Principal Meridians to the Surface,
there are Luo vessels or connections that link the
surface with the depth
• Helps avoid deeper penetration of pathology

• Infiltrate, hydro-dissect
• Soapbox….scars are forever
