Talking about Acupuncture Emotion

Talking about acupuncture and moxibustion

Everyone should know about acupuncture and moxibustion, and the people have a high sense of identity. People often say that "acupuncture and cupping are less than half", so acupuncture is also very popular. In fact, many diseases can be treated by acupuncture. One acupoint is sometimes equivalent to blind Chinese medicine treatment, and multiple acupoints are combined to form a prescription. Therefore, it is very important to select points based on syndrome differentiation.

Acupuncture was first recorded in Huangdi Neijing. The author is unknown, so I won't introduce it too much. Acupuncture was invented by Huangfu Mi in the Western Jin Dynasty. It is necessary to study these two famous books. Acupuncture and moxibustion will be supplemented and perfected by medical masters in subsequent dynasties. Even now, acupuncture technology is constantly innovating and improving. We dare not expect anything, but only respect our ancestors and thank them for their cultural treasures. Is it still incredible and amazing for foreigners to see acupuncture now?

After doing acupuncture for so long, I have a little experience. Let's talk slowly today. There are many factions of acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine. Every famous doctor has his own unique acupuncture technique. The same disease is also composed of different acupoints, and different diseases may also have the same acupoints. This is what we call different treatments for the same disease. That is, the study of acupuncture must have its own set of acupuncture ideas, and we can't use this method and that method like headless flies. There is always a fundamental treatment, such as traditional acupuncture combined with other acupuncture methods. Don't use it blindly for the sake of curative effect, which is not good for the recovery of patients.

In recent years, the state has paid more and more attention to traditional Chinese medicine, and built many traditional Chinese medicine halls to revitalize traditional Chinese medicine. Acupuncture is also accepted by more and more people. It is very advantageous in treating diseases. For example, stiff neck, sometimes a stitch or two can be cured quickly. Acupuncture at the point of stiff neck of hand has good and fast effect, and sometimes it doesn't hurt so much immediately after it is tied.

The therapeutic principle of acupuncture and moxibustion must be that the fewer needles, the less pain the patient has, the better. There are many schools of acupuncture now, all of which have their own unique skills. In fact, no matter how you use it, you can't escape the traditional acupuncture left by your ancestors. You must practice your basic skills, and you must practice the needles you insist on, not only the needles, but also your palm skills. To put it bluntly, the patient not only feels that the needle is pricking down, but our fingers are pricking down. Don't think that I can cure the disease by sticking it down, it's not like this. For example, I have an apprentice who uses traditional acupuncture for a short time. I asked him to see a patient with lumbar disc herniation. After more than a month, I asked this friend, "How are you? Does it still hurt? " He said it was neither good nor painful. I said that it won't hurt so much if you tie your waist once after you come. I'm not saying that the apprentice doesn't stick the same acupoints well, but because his time is too short and his fingers don't have that skill.

So don't think that I can cure the disease by diving into it. It's not that simple. I still need to practice more quietly and not aim too high.

Some patients will say why I feel particularly weak when acupuncture. Actually, this is normal. Acupuncture will vent people's anger in the early stage, but it will gradually make up. This deficiency will get better gradually, so don't worry too much.

When we treat lumbar disc herniation, we often have some academic differences with doctors in western medicine. In this way, there will be misunderstanding. Forget it. Let me talk directly about acupuncture itself. When acupuncture is used to treat lumbar process, more serious symptoms will appear during the treatment. Remember that when it is heavier, for example, when your lumbar spine suddenly comes, the pain is five pieces, and it will be aggravated to eight pieces during treatment. That is, when it is heavier, the general pain will be repeated for about three to five days. At this time, we must pay attention to it. This is the result of clinical practice!

Another is that when we use acupuncture to treat facial paralysis, some people say that acupuncture can't work in the early stage, which will further damage the facial nerve. In fact, this is also true or false. Facial paralysis can be acupuncture within one week at the earliest, but the acupuncture points are shallow, so the number and depth of acupuncture points can be increased after one week. If the acupuncture depth is deep within one week, it will affect the recovery of facial nerves, and the effect will be better after one week!

These are just my humble opinions, which I got in practice. If I am wrong, I hope you can forgive me!

I'm Dr. Liu Ge. I hope I can help you.
