## What is Best Time Acupuncture?

Based on the traditional Chinese Lunar calendar and following a 60-, 10- or 1-day cycle you determine open acupuncture points at a particular time. 

Use the traditional Chinese lunar calendar to calculate a constellation of heavenly stems and earthly branches on a particular day and time.

An additional calculation establishes a correlation between "birth hexagram" and related potent acupuncture points. The I Ching texts provide further insight into the calculated hexagrams.

As an extra you may use the I Ching oracle if you seek advice.

## Key features

- Traditional Chinese Lunar calendar integration
- 60-, 10-, and 1-day cycle calculations
- Heavenly stems and earthly branches calculation
- Birth hexagram to acupuncture point correlation
- I Ching text insights
- I Ching oracle for advice

### 2/5 — Unsure

*2024-06-09, version 2.0.4*

I purchased this app yesterday and it seemed to work last night.  However, this morning it doesn’t work at all.  It’s just blank screens.  I am trying to get in touch with the developer but there isn’t an email available.  So not sure what to do next.

### 5/5 — This is an amazing app!

*2019-08-29*

I found this gem of an app years ago and it became instantly applicable in my clinic. I am thankful for the people who developed this app, as it has all the information for chronopuncture necessary and it is concise and accurate. Thank you for developing this app!!!

### 3/5 — Bestzeit Akupunktur

*2017-09-04, version 1.5.4*

Benutze die App schon einige Zeit und war immer sehr angetan. Jetzt fehlt mir der Text von Carol Anthony und leider finde ich auch, dass das Werfen der Münzen jetzt nicht mehr so gut funktioniert wie vorher. Das Tagebuch mit den Fragestellungen ist gar nicht zu finden, so dass alles unübersichtlich geworden ist. Schade! Alles andere ist wie immer hervorragend. Dafür meinen Dank an die Entwickler. Vielleicht besteht ja die Möglichkeit, die Arbeit mit dem IGing noch einmal zu modifizieren.

### 5/5 — I've waited years for this

*2016-04-07*

I have tried maybe 5 times to learn about chronological based acupuncture over the last 20 odd years plus but lacked the mathematical prowess necessary to actually use it in the clinic. Now I use it every day and am having really good results. Well worth the price. Thank you so much.

### 5/5 — Apple Watch support Please 👏🏻

*2016-02-06, version 1.5.3*

Please can't we have the main results on Apple Watch please !! Can you also have complications integration, that would be awesome for clinic, and just points to press on ourselves while out about at a glance...

Please please please do it

### 5/5 — Best chrono acupuncture app

*2014-09-16, version 1.4*

Works out your open points. I have checked the points with my manual calculators and it comes up exactly get same just saves me loads of time. Great for a practicing acupuncturist.

### 3/5 — Seems excellent

*2013-11-24*

My teacher transmitted this technology to us in our 8 extra class years ago.  However it was a one day class.  I've never forgotten the lecture and have looked for an app that is useful.  This may be it.  I'll utilize the points for a month with clients and share experience.  It would be helpful to have info on how to best utilize it for those not familiar.  If progress is excellent to good ill change ratings right now giving it a 3.

### 5/5 — Fällig und gefällt

*2013-01-20, version 1.3.2*

Bin sehr zufrieden. Bisher noch keinen "Fehler" entdeckt. Schön ist die I Ging Verknüpfung. Gibt es auch eine Möglichkeit zu zukünftigen Bestzeiten einfach hinzuscrollen ohne umständlich an den Datumeinstellungen zu werkeln? Hab's bisher noch nicht gefunden. Wär toll! 
Aber auch so: volle Sternenzahl!
