    The document discusses neurovascular holding points, which are locations on the head that activate blood flow to related muscles and organs when stimulated. It describes how the points were discovered and their associations with fetal development. Instructions are provided for lightly touching the points to stimulate blood flow and relieve stress. Finally, the 16 main neurovascular points are identified and their associated organs listed.

    The key takeaways are that neurovascular points located on the head act as switches to activate blood flow when stimulated and can be used to relieve pain and stress.

    Neurovascular points are neurological switches located mainly on the head that activate blood flow to related muscles, organs or glands when stimulated. They were discovered in the 1930s.

    Neurovascular points are stimulated by lightly touching them with the pads of the fingers, merely touching and slightly stretching the skin for 20-30 seconds until the pulses synchronize.

    THE NEUROVASCULAR ENERGY SWITCHES

    WITH JOHN MAGUIRE


    THE NEUROVASCULAR HOLDING POINTS

    • Neurovascular points were discovered by Terrance Bennett, DC in


    the 1930’s

    • These points, located mainly on the head, are neurological switches


    which activate blood flow to related muscles, organs or glands

    • Bennett injected radioactive dye into people and held various points
    as he noticed where blood flow increased viewing through an x-ray
    called a fluorascope

    THE NEUROVASCULAR HOLDING POINTS

    • These reflexes have neurologic influence on blood circulation that appears to develop early in the embryo and unfolds
    with the skin during growth, to be fully present by birth

    • For the first three or four weeks, the fetus has no heart, and the mother’s placental circulation is supplemented by a
    network of fetal vascular circuits

    • As the tissues grow, the circuits exert slight traction on the blood vessels, causing the vessel’s muscles to pulsate in an
    augmented fashion that aids the mother’s placental circulation

    • At about the third month, the heart is formed, taking over part of the burden of supplying circulation to the growing
    fetus

    • The neurovascular circuits that develop in the fetus continue to have an influence upon the circulation of blood flow

    3
    HOW TO STIMULATE THESE POINTS

    • To stimulate the neurovascular holding points, touch them with the pads of the fingers, merely touching
    and slightly stretching the skin

    • The pressure should be as light as you would touch your eyelids – very lightly

    • A few seconds after contact is made, a slight vascular pulse may be felt, but is not necessary for the pulse
    to be present for the technique to be effective

    • Hold the neurovascular points for about 20 to 30 seconds or until you feel the pulses synchronize

    • This improves the blood circulation to the muscle, and the related organ

    • George Goodheart, DC was the first to associate these points with muscles

    • This technique is particularly helpful for thin skinned people

    GENERAL NEUROVASCULAR PROCEDURE FOR PAIN AND STRESS RELIEF

    • Have the person notice how they are feeling, noting any stress, pain, anxiety or tension levels and have
    them rate these on a 1 – 10 scale

    • Stimulate each of the neurovascular holding points, touching them with the pads of the fingers, merely
    touching and slightly stretching the skin

    • Hold the neurovascular points for about 20 to 30 seconds or until you feel the pulse synchronize

    • You can hold points 1 and 2 at the same time and 3 and 4 at the same time, since these are single points
    on the midline (all other points are bilateral)

    • It is not necessary to do them in any particular order, but following the points from #1 - #16 is fine

    • When done have the person notice any improvements in how they are feeling. They will often feel much
    more relaxed

    IN SUMMARY

    • The vascular system brings the nutrients to the body

    • There are neurovascular points located mainly on the head get switched off when the body is under stress

    • We can switch on the neurovascular points by holding them lightly to activate blood flow

    • Energy to the muscle and associated organ is also facilitated by stimulation of the neurovascular points

    • As a procedure to relieve pain and stress, we can hold all of the neurovascular points in a sequence
