First, they work well when diffused in the background during treatment with an ultrasonic nebulizer. They are designed to be effective both on the physiological or Qi level, and the mental-emotional, spirit or Shen level. They work equally well on short-term conditions as well as on chronic patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe CM Essentials blends can also be used directly on acupoints with the same action as the formula. Use only one drop with a cotton swab or clean finger and hold lightly on the point for at least a minute and\/or until a change is felt. No pressure is required. No dilution is necessary either: the blends already contain a small amount of jojoba oil to prevent any possible irritation from the oils in those with sensitive skin. In addition, only oils non-irritant to the skin make up these blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFor instance, the blend Strengthen Spleen, Resolve Damp may be applied to such points as SP-6, SP-3, ST-36, SP-9 and CV-6.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe blend Nourish Blood and Yin may be appropriate for points such as SP-6, H-5\/7, K-3\/6 and CV-4.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe dispersing blend Regulate Qi, Relax Constraint may work well on such points as LI-4, LIV-3, GB-34, ST-40, P-6 and Yintang.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThese blends can also benefit clients and patients who wish to use them at home or at work, if they enjoy the blend's actual fragrance. This will extend the benefits of weekly treatment in the clinic.
