visual observation and palpation

the skin shows symptoms of sympathetic nervous tension. palpation shows that the surface muscles are hyper tense. swelling is also present.
the neck muscles were so swollen that they were difficult to touch, so we decided to focus on acupuncture.

3rd treatment: eye fatigue was completely gone. especially when acupuncture is applied to the muscles at the base of the neck, there is a pleasant sensation that resonates behind the eyes.
