The reporter learned that ""is a widely circulated health preserving method, which was initiated by Li Shaobo, a Gansu traditional Chinese medicine. The reporter saw on the homepage of its website that "Yi * * *" is divided into five steps. Generally speaking, the first and second steps are mainly to adjust the breath to promote the true qi through certain forms, so that the true qi in the body is concentrated in the abdomen. The third and fourth steps are to pump the gas accumulated in the abdomen to the brain through the governor pulse to restore and enhance the function of the brain. After the fifth step, due to the smooth channels and collaterals, the regularity of qi movement is improved, so that the body function is enhanced and the vitality is strong, thus achieving the functions of strengthening the body and treating diseases.
Li, her daughter, said in an interview that this theory of qi-promoting method comes from Huangdi Neijing, which combines the essence of health care of various schools in the past dynasties and cultivates the human body's own qi by regulating the breath.
She said that the method of activating qi was mature in the early 1950s. It is based on medicine and life science and has no side effects. It is suitable for all kinds of people. In practice, some patients with chronic diseases have recovered, and four or five students have recovered automatically, which has aroused people's attention.
Yuan Zhong, assistant dean of China Academy of Medical Sciences, said that in ancient times, medicine was local, such as ancient Indian medicine, ancient Egyptian medicine and ancient China medicine. They all have many common characteristics. For example, ancient Greek and Roman medicine derived "four body fluids" from the philosophy of "four elements" and advocated the holistic concept and natural therapy. Similarly, TCM deduces the five internal organs of human body from the philosophy of "Five Elements" and "Yin and Yang" from the philosophy of "Yin and Yang". Ancient medicine is not a science in the modern sense. They all explained medical practice and experience with the help of the popular natural philosophy theory at that time, thus forming their own system and replacing the understanding of special laws of medicine with philosophical thoughts. This makes it difficult for medical development to break through the level of experience, and the individualization of experience is difficult to repeat, which also hinders quantification and standardization.
During the European Renaissance, many people abandoned the past concepts and methods and re-recognized the human body with a brand-new perspective and method. Since then, the world's ancient medicine has moved towards modern natural science, and medicine has seen the subtle structure of the human body more and more deeply, constantly restoring the life process of the human body at the micro level.
However, China didn't have the ideological revolution like the European Renaissance, and Chinese medicine didn't experience the changes like ancient Greek and Roman medicine. China ancient medicine has been passed down to this day. Although it has changed, the basic theory and thinking method have not changed, and it is not a natural science in the modern sense. When there are still many problems in world medicine (western medicine) that cannot be solved, people will turn to Chinese medicine. When Chinese medicine cannot solve it, people may turn to witch doctors for help.
Huang Guangmin, director of the Institute of Medicine of the State Sports General Administration, told reporters that there are more and more ways to keep healthy. There is no best for everyone, only the best. As long as it suits you, you can continue to stick to it. But now many people have expanded the concept of Chinese medicine, such as combining some basic theories of Chinese medicine with qigong methods and linking them with the treatment of certain diseases. This clear causal relationship can be misleading.
He said that the efficacy of qigong is mostly to improve people's physical and mental state in spirit, that is to say, it is basically out of the scientific category. In order to propose a method to treat diseases, it is necessary to have objective experimental data and detection indicators, especially the comparative data of the same batch of subjects before and after treatment, and then through statistical calculation, it is confirmed that there is a significant difference, so as to prove its curative effect. However, there is no data or public data to prove the practice of a certain "Qigong" to treat diseases.
The medical methods and drugs used in clinical treatment are actually not suitable for popularization, because people's illness and physical condition are very different, and it is difficult for everyone to regard a method as a "panacea". For example, some people say that as long as a few fixed acupoints are used for a long time, all diseases will not be born. However, the human body structure is complex. Even a minor illness like stomachache is difficult to treat in one way. Appendicitis and ectopic pregnancy. Can cause abdominal pain. Isn't it a delay to treat in one way?
"The treatment of hepatitis B is still a difficult problem in the medical field. Scientists from all over the world are trying to develop all kinds of new drugs and treatments. Therefore, the development of both Chinese medicine and Qigong needs scientific basis and the right medicine. Relevant national authorities should also take responsibility, make necessary restrictions on some claimed curative effects, and conduct expert review. Only in this way can they be responsible to consumers. " Huang Guangmin said.
