For thousands of years, it has made outstanding contributions to the protection of health and the reproduction of the nation, and until now, it is still responsible

In this task, it is trusted by the broad masses. Unclog the meridians

The function of dredging the meridians is to make the blocked meridians unobstructed and play their normal physiological roles.

It is the most basic and direct treatment of acupuncture. The meridians "belong to the internal organs and the external channels belong to the limbs", running

Qi and blood are one of its main physiological functions. The meridians are blocked, the flow of qi and blood is blocked, and the clinical manifestations are pain

Symptoms such as pain, numbness, swelling, ecchymosis, etc. The Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion selects the corresponding acupuncture points and acupuncture techniques and triangular edges

Origin of acupuncture

Acupuncture therapy was first seen in the book "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", which came out in the Warring States period. The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon

say

The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon

"Tibetan cold is full of diseases, and its treatment should be moxibustion", which refers to moxibustion, which describes in detail the shape of the nine needles, and

A large number of theories and techniques of acupuncture and moxibustion are described. Acupuncture therapy has been popular in China for more than 2,000 years, and

Spread to the world. Acupuncture, on the other hand, came even earlier.

In ancient times, people were accidentally hit by some sharp and hard objects, such as stones and thorns

In a certain part of the face, there will be an unexpected reduction in pain. The ancients began to consciously

Use some sharp stones to prick certain parts of the body or artificially puncture the body to make it bleed, so as to reduce it

Mild pain. People have mastered the technology of digging and grinding, and can make some more delicate and suitable

Combined with stone tools that pierce the body to treat diseases, this stone tool is the oldest medical tool.

People use "stones" to pierce a certain part of the body to treat diseases. Stones were also more commonly used in surgery at the time

The incision of a purulent infection drains the pus, so it is also called a needle stone or stone. The Classic of Mountains and Seas says: "There are stones."

Such as jade, can be a needle", is an early record of stone needles. In China, gravel stones have been found in archaeology

Thing. It can be said that the stone is the foundation and predecessor of the knife and needle tools of later generations.

Moxibustion arose after the discovery and use of fire. In the process of using fire, people

The Classic of Mountains and Seas

It is found that the pain of a certain part of the body is relieved or relieved by burning and baking with fire, and then learning to use it

Hides or bark wrap around hot stones, sand and are locally hot-ironed, gradually developed to ignite branches or

Hay is baked to treat diseases. After a long period of exploration, we chose to be flammable and have the effect of warming the meridians

The mugwort leaves are used as the main material for moxibustion treatment, and the body surface is warmly stimulated, so that moxibustion and needles are used

Thorns have become an important method of disease prevention and treatment. Because mugwort leaves have easy to burn, aromatic odor,

It has the characteristics of abundant resources and easy processing and storage, so it has become the most important raw material for moxibustion treatment.

"Thorn and prick" gradually developed into acupuncture, and "hot and ironed" gradually developed into moxibustion, which is acupuncture therapy

The predecessor of the law.

The "needle" of the needle, the traditional Chinese as "needle", the word from gold from salt, "gold" means "metal", such as gold, silver,

For bronze and other materials, "salty" means "sour" (see the "salty" note in the interactive encyclopedia), and "gold" and "salty" are combined

to say: "A device that produces a sour feeling". It is not excluded that the ancients used fried bamboo needles as one

The possibility of secondary needles, this kind of bamboo needles is called "Zhen", and the "salty" in its glyph is still the meaning of "sour".
