Solve the mystery of acupuncture points

of Chinese medicine treatment 

       Speaking of points, most of the people due to the martial arts drama, or martial arts of the book, and feel that their super-powerful and mysterious mystery. In fact, careful study and points, can grasp the cultural knowledge, but also play a role in preventing and curing diseases. 


       Learning Chinese, the teacher asked to recite one verses: "belly three years left, back and seek the Committee, the first item to find out short of closing the face and mouth Hegu." This is to introduce the memory of the relationship between body acupuncture and treatment of verses, learn a rhyme, read several times to back down, then four acupuncture points and their clinical applications are written down. Asked to study medicine later in the process, found a number of verses compiled a good way to enhance memory. In particular the chaotic surface of some terms, separate to memories, certainly ineffective, especially in long-term memory is worse. If these terms and make sense of things associated with it together, then the rhythm of poetry compiled in accordance with the Five-character, or seven-character verses fluently, both to enhance memory, but also saves time to study. When I was engaged in medical teaching, often to introduce students to the learning. Medical education is a life-long education, graduate students how to improve self-efficiency, this song will no doubt play a self multiplier effect.

       Acupuncture points diseases

       Described above verses tell us that Chinese acupuncture points in the body's four important points: the full three years, Venezuela, and Hegu missing out. Is the term acupuncture points. Acupuncture is one of the greatest inventions of China, its contribution to mankind has been very obvious. The so-called acupuncture is a treatment, including acupuncture and moxibustion, the former is the metal needle into the body certain points; the latter, moxa (dried leaves of the wormwood beaten Unqualified) to do into a column or Ai Ai, ignition combustion, the surface of the skin temperature and moxibustion points. Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of two different methods, often combined in clinical practice, it is called acupuncture. Acupuncture points are stimulated. Point was originally called "shu", it was called "acupuncture points", "acupoints" (or write "lose points"), "hole" or "air pocket" and so on. Yu has the meaning of infusion, the meaning of points there is a gap, therefore, blood transfusion in point is the location of the meridian. "Yellow Emperor" is the earliest introduction of acupuncture treatment for a medical book, the book describes the human body only 160 acupoints, meridians associated with the points far from that. In summary, with the fourth by (twelve meridians and the Ren, Du) The points are more than 360, each point is closely related with the function of organs, hence the name "Meridian." There are not included in the fourth through the points is called "The singular point outside." In addition, there is no fixed position, with the tender point may be the known as "Ashi", also known as "uncertain" points, "the day should be" points. A is the point of the name, from "Qian" (Tang Sun Ssu was) wrote a book: "Everyone has pain, and even if its on the squeeze, as if in their place, do not ask cavity, that she lay fast or pain that the clouds 'Ah yes'. moxibustion thorn all experience. "The so-called" fast or pain "is a sensitive response to the mean. So Ashi is the tender point. Future generations in the "Dragon Song" wrote: "Disease is very sore, uncertainties detailed review of fine points, there shall be shallow stab bone tendon, to measure the temporary burning Ai." Voiced Ashi is also called "variable points . " A point from the point selection method is introduced, the origin point, that human life, accidental impact due to surface the pain suffered by him to reduce or cure; or uncomfortable parts of the body massage or a beat, so sick can be alleviated. Practical experience is gained, in addition to medical acupuncture primitive stone tools to stimulate the body, a long period of practice, man, "points" have a clear understanding gradually. Further development of this understanding the formation of the motherland medicine called "meridians."

        Acupoint stimulation of Health

         Modern medicine, acupuncture is the stimulation of acupuncture points, but also disease response points. When your fingers when pressing the point, there are different degrees of internal pain and acids, hemp, swelling feeling. Acupuncture has been widely accepted by the world, Western medicine not only in the clinical application of it, and in the field of scientific research, from the perspective of different points of the theoretical and practical value. Experts and scholars from around the world with all the modern means of a large concentration of manpower, resources, trying to find points of the form, nature and function, though with some encouraging findings, but everything is still a preliminary search. So far, people still can not observe what point is what kind of structure. Inferred in a variety of laboratory and clinical experience a negative, but scientists are still one generation to whom to pay a huge effort. Nevertheless, the clinical practice of medical workers with modern instruments, such as electric, magnetic, laser, infrared, microwave and other techniques to stimulate acupuncture points or inject drugs, or with acupuncture anesthesia for surgery, etc., have shown that the acupuncture treatment did not give up because of unclear mechanism, is more in-depth development of the contrary. Believe that one day people will unlock the mystery points and meridians.

       Points and meridians, as is not the invisible mysterious thing, it really there in the human body, to understand some points of knowledge, applied in health care, this is the purpose of ordinary people. Daily life, leisure time, with a small amount of time, adhere to stimulate acupuncture points once a day, can play a conditioning organs function, adjust the yin and yang effect. Can prevent disease, but also physical health, not necessarily to stimulate acupuncture points, the simplest way is to refer to the needle, which points a finger pressing the kneading surface of the skin, can also achieve the purpose of stimulating acupuncture points. Here, people think of martial arts master in the martial arts, acupuncture in the grips of power when the fingers, while the opponent could not move without a fight. Of course, the novel has exaggerated. However, some points with strong points generated by a sense of soreness, causing numbness, this is not a miracle. Select points of our daily health care to the main points with strong features, such as the full three years, Qu Chi, Guan Yuan, air sea, Sanyinjiao, the customs, Hegu, springs and so on. Each point of the press time of 2 to 3 minutes, not too long. Press the power light should be light to heavy and then the last few per hole in situ friction rub. The key is to persevere. To health care with the role of point stimulation is an effective method for thousands of years ancient, and this method can own hands with each person to complete. It appears that "life in their own hands" is not empty talk.
