Program Protocol
Dr. Bresler has been
practicing acupuncture since 1971. Since that time,
he has studied, research, developed, and taught a
wide variety of acupuncture techniques, procedures,
and approaches. Compiled from the vast amount of
information collected over 35+ years, he has
developed a unique protocol for facial rejuvenation
that includes the following four phases:
(1) Pain Management
Prior to performing Cosmetic Acupuncture, Dr. Bresler utilizes specialized auriculotherapy (ear acupuncture) techniques to reduce facial sensitivity. This involves inserting several tiny, sterile, disposable acupuncture needles into special points on the outer ear which stimulate the production of endorphins, the body’s natural pain relievers.
(2) Cosmetic Acupuncture
Once facial sensitivity has been reduced, tiny, sterile, disposable needles are placed into acupuncture and special points on the face, scalp, and neck. These remain in place while you recline and relax for the remainder of the treatment session (about 20 minutes).
The initial trial of Cosmetic Acupuncture usually requires 10 bi-weekly treatments for best results. Afterwards, the benefits can be maintained by periodic follow-up visits that might be needed only once or twice per year, or up to two or three times per month depending upon your genetics and lifestyle behaviors.
(3) Nutritional Support
Although it is not a required part of the program, Dr. Bresler will recommend nutritional supplements that enhance your appearance, and will encourage you to avoid foods and behaviors that can work against the desired results. Smoking cessation is of primary importance not only for appearance sake, but for overall health and longevity, and fortunately, the Center specializes in helping people to break the smoking habit once and for all.
(4) Stress Management
Stress can also have a devastating impact upon our appearance. Hans Selye, MD, the pioneering stress researcher once commented that “Aging is just the scars left by the stress of life.”
Every patient who receives Cosmetic Acupuncture at the Bresler Center is also given a “Conditioned Relaxation” CD containing an entire stress management program on a single CD.
Learning to relax in just a few seconds is a vital survival skill for the age in which we live, and for the sake of their health and vitality, every family member should utilize this CD to train themselves how to relax.on command.
(5) MindBody Tune-up
This is one of the special benefits of receiving Cosmetic Acupuncture at the Bresler Center. With each treatment, Dr. Bresler includes a “MindBody Tune-up” using a unique combination of guided imagery and special auricular acupuncture techniques designed to give you increased energy, as well as improved digestion, clear-mindedness, and an overall sense of well-being.
