Chapter 0209 - Needle Path
After the old man gave Zhang Jiawei a lot of needles, he began to talk eloquently: "There are no more than three purposes of acupuncture, which are to dredge the meridians, reconcile yin and yang, and strengthen the right and dispel evil. ”
The function of dredging the meridians is to make the blocked meridians smooth and play their normal physiological role, the meridians belong to the internal organs, the external channels are in the limbs, and the operation of qi and blood is its main physiological function. The meridians are blocked, the flow of qi and blood is blocked, and the clinical manifestations are pain, numbness, swelling, ecchymosis and other symptoms. The acupuncture department selects the corresponding acupoints, acupuncture techniques and triangular needle puncture bleeding to make the meridians smooth and the qi and blood run normally. As the saying goes, pain doesn't work, pain doesn't work, although this is an advertisement, but there is also a certain amount of truth.
The function of acupuncture to reconcile yin and yang is to transform the body from a state of imbalance of yin and yang to a state of balance, which is the ultimate goal of acupuncture treatment. The mechanism of disease occurrence is complex, but it can be summarized as an imbalance of yin and yang from the overall class. The function of acupuncture to reconcile yin and yang is accomplished through the attributes of yin and yang in the meridians, the compatibility of meridians and acupoints, and acupuncture techniques. This point has been criticized by some experts in the past, thinking that the theory of yin and yang is too illusory, but now it seems to be very reasonable.
Just like the acid-base balance within the human body, if it is damaged, the person will definitely get sick, so Chinese medicine also pays attention to the golden mean, which is to draw a balance of the biological field, whether it is to regulate yin and yang or pursue the unity of heaven and man, it is a big goal of yin and yang balance.
The function of acupuncture is to help the body to uphold righteousness and drive away diseases. The process of the occurrence, development and prognosis of a disease is essentially a process of conflict between good and evil. Acupuncture treatment is to play its role in strengthening the right and dispelling evil.
Zhang Jiawei really admired the old man, he thought that after getting the advanced Chinese medicine skills rewarded by the origin system, he knew a lot about acupuncture and moxibustion, but after seeing the old man's acupuncture skills, Zhang Jiawei knew. He Zhang Dashao is still tender in the acupuncture and even in the entire field of Chinese medicine.
At the same time, Zhang Jiawei also knows. The Origin System is powerful, but it doesn't do everything. There are also many things that the origin system does not know. After all, there are still many secrets in the human world that cannot be passed on, and these things cannot be known by the origin system.
Of course, this may be the reason why Zhang Jiawei's reward is still very limited. After all, he got this high-level Chinese medicine skill. Although nominally advanced, it is the most basic for the origin system, as it is only the second-lowest F-level reward. Maybe the things involved in the super Chinese doctor and god-level Chinese medicine skills in the back are even more profound than what Wang Tianlan taught him?
But in any case, for now, at least in terms of the attainments of Chinese medicine, Wang Tianlan can completely throw him a few streets. It's beyond his reach. The old man is his teacher, that's perfectly fine.
The old man looked at Zhang Jiawei, who was looking at him with admiration, and said, "The seemingly safe Chinese medicine acupuncture treatment actually has considerable risks. I met a patient who was sent to the Eighth People's Hospital of Mingzhu City by his family for surgery. The doctor was surprised to find that within a week, the acupuncture needle moved from the left side of the patient's buttocks, through the pelvis and abdomen, to the belly button of the abdomen, and it was rare for the needle to move such a long distance in the body. Fortunately, the broken needle did not puncture the blood vessels or organs in the body when it moved, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
Broken needle, or broken needle, refers to the body of the needle broken in the human body. The reasons include poor quality of the needle, damage and erosion of the needle body or needle root, loss of inspection before needle insertion, piercing all the needle body into the acupoints during acupuncture, strong insertion and twisting during needle execution, violent muscle contraction, the patient's arbitrary change of body position when leaving the needle, or failure to carry out timely and correct treatment of the bent needle and delayed needle.
If the patient suddenly develops chest tightness, nausea, dizziness, sweating, or even paleness, cold limbs, convulsions, and fainting during the acupuncture process, it is likely to be "fainting needle". Sickness is mostly caused by mental stress, hunger, fatigue, or excessive stimulation by the doctor's acupuncture technique. In the event of needle sickness, the doctor should quickly take out the needle, let the person who faint lie down, and press the corresponding acupuncture points, which can quickly relieve the symptoms. In severe cases, necessary drugs should be given.
While talking to Zhang Jiawei about some common knowledge related to acupuncture, the old man kept lifting those silver needles on Zhang Jiawei's body, pulling and turning, twisting and pinching, Zhang Jiawei felt that there was a feeling of soreness, numbness, swelling, and heaviness in his body, and he knew that this was a good feeling.
In fact, Zhang Jiawei's body is healthy, the veins in his body are unimpeded, and all kinds of senses are very keen. For example, under the regulation of the silver needle, the operation of the origin force has undergone a faster or slower change, which is very beneficial for Zhang Jiawei to learn acupuncture techniques.
Therefore, after the old man actually demonstrated for a while, Zhang Jiawei was able to roughly grasp the trick.
It's just that Zhang Jiawei is a little curious, when the general acupuncture doctor performs acupuncture, he always asks the patient some questions, such as what it feels, whether it hurts, whether it is numb or not, but the old man doesn't ask at all, as if he knows what the other party feels when he gets the needle, so he asks the old man this question.
"That's what I've felt for years." The old man smiled slightly.
"Feelings?" Zhang Jiawei couldn't help but be stunned, and felt that this thing was really very mysterious, that is, it was the most unreliable thing, but it was often the thing that needed to be relied on the most. For example, in the casino, you need feeling to win, and on the battlefield, you need feeling to make decisions, and often many great scientists have succeeded after finding the feeling.
So it feels like this stuff is really hard to explain. And the so-called feeling of the old man is also the accumulation of years of medical experience, right? This thing is more based on talent and practice, not in a vacuum. Even the Origin System of the Ox Fork Extreme may not be able to help him much in this regard. After all, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books.
The old man said to Zhang Jiawei: "Since I have been self-medicated, I have handled tens of thousands of patients. After so many years of needle walking, I have basically mastered this feeling, and as soon as the needle goes, it is like a tomb robber inserting a Luoyang shovel into the ground, and he knows the following situation. As for the lifting points, according to the amount of force and the degree of distortion on the silver needle, you can know what the patient should feel, and basically there is no need to ask again. ”
"Then teacher, how do you feel about stabbing me?" Zhang Jiawei asked with some curiosity.
"It's a very comfortable feeling." The old man thought about it seriously and said, "People who are not sick, the meridians are so transparent, and the feedback generated by piercing them is healthy, and it feels like when I first learned acupuncture, under the guidance of the teacher, I used silver needles to puncture acupuncture and moxibustion to use the teaching bronze man, which is very good and comfortable, very relaxed, and very fulfilling." ”
