Abstract/Notes

Abstract: Rees studied the TS points extensively and attempted to determine how these reflex points might relate to the body and be used for diagnosis and guiding treatment. His initial theory suggested that the TS points on the skull helped to monitor messages sent from a vital organ as sensory feedback to the brain. He believed that these messages could be measured by an EEG (Rees used an oscilloscope) as micro-voltages of an alpha wavelength. Therefore when an organ was stressed, the matching TS point had an imbalance of alpha wave production
compared to the other points, thus setting up a local hyper-excitability or reduced inhibition effect on the active TS point.

From this came a method Rees termed the ‘Alpha Wave Enhancement’ technique to address this imbalance and facilitate both afferent and efferent supra-spinal visceral communication.
