Zangfu acupoint selection method is referred to as Zangfu acupoint selection method for short. It is said that this method originated from Taoism and was later introduced to the people. As for why this law was created by people, whether it originated from Taoism and when it was introduced to the people, it remains to be verified. But there is no doubt that this therapy is closely related to medicine and martial arts.
In the long river of history, our ancestors used zang-fu acupoints to diagnose and treat diseases and relieve people's suffering. The method is simple and effective, and it has won people's recognition. However, due to historical limitations, ancestors who were proficient in medical skills and martial arts all regarded this method as a secret book and refused to show it easily. In addition, teaching is very strict, limited to the people, far less extensive than acupuncture and massage. Because of this, few people have mastered this technology from generation to generation, and now it has become a rare treasure in the cultural heritage of traditional Chinese medicine.
1. 1 Medical Basis of Acupoint Method of Zangfu Organs
Zang-fu acupuncture is popular among the people, but it belongs to the discipline of massage according to the traditional Chinese medicine. It is based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, starting from the concepts of "holism" and "movement", taking the theory of Yin and Yang and Five Elements, the theory of Zangxiang, the theory of meridians and the law of qi and blood operation as the guiding ideology of dialectical treatment, and regulating the distribution of qi in viscera (qi refers to the function of viscera) through special acupoint matching, so as to achieve the purpose of harmonizing qi and blood, and make the human body "Yin and Yang as the secret and the spirit as the rule". It has a special effect on restoring and enhancing the function of viscera.
1.2 Basic treatment methods of zang-fu points
Acupoint method of zang-fu organs emphasizes "combination of medicine and martial arts". During the treatment, the mind is vivid, the heart is bleeding, and the force at the bottom of the elbow runs through the fingertips. Through reasonable treatment based on syndrome differentiation, it applies basic methods such as "regulating", "tonifying" and "purging" to the meridians and acupoints of patients, so as to achieve the purpose of penetrating the exterior and irrigating the five internal organs. The so-called "tune" is to move circularly on the patient's acupuncture points in the form of a pointer; The so-called "compensation" is clockwise rotation; The so-called "unloading" is counterclockwise rotation. These three methods are the basic methods of needling zang-fu organs, but they should be differentiated according to the etiology and pathogenesis of patients, and applied flexibly, so that those with blood stasis can dissolve them, those with blockage can open them, those with clear blood can clear them, and those with turbidity can descend them, thus realizing the normalization of physiological functions of qi and blood of zang-fu organs, meridians and collaterals.
When using the acupoints of zang-fu organs for treatment, the selected acupoints are basically the same as those selected by acupuncture, and they do not leave the meridian acupoints such as the twelve meridians, Qijing and Bamai. The difference is that the key part of acupoint therapy of zang-fu organs is the abdomen. Because the abdomen is the place where many important meridian cycles converge, it directly acts on the abdomen and has a special adjustment and promotion effect on the viscera and meridians. It is worth noting that acupuncture is treated by acupuncture, and the acupoints of zang-fu organs are treated by doctors acting on the meridian points of patients through their hands or "finger work".
2 characteristics of diagnosis and treatment of diseases
2. 1 combination of medicine and martial arts, understanding "reason" and syndrome differentiation, incisive expression, eliminating evil without hurting righteousness.
Acupuncture and moxibustion of zang-fu organs is characterized by the combination of medicine and medicine. Therefore, it is necessary to deeply understand the medical theory, under the correct guidance of medical theory, and treat it according to different etiology and pathogenesis. Only on the premise of "reason" can we effectively differentiate syndromes; Only on the basis of syndrome differentiation and treatment can we establish effective treatment principles and methods, so as to use various methods such as "tonifying deficiency", "purging excess" and "regulating qi" to distinguish diseases and treat them according to syndrome differentiation. At the same time, you should have excellent martial arts. Only with profound internal strength and the combination of medicine and martial arts can we show it incisively and vividly and achieve curative effect.
The combination of medicine and martial arts is based on "merit", and the sages of past dynasties have attached great importance to the cultivation of their own martial arts. Those who learn this "skill" must practice and practice in accordance with the traditional methods, so as to be "a master after understanding strength" (that is, after knowing the basic methods of "strength", they can improve step by step and reach a flexible level), so as to be handy and understand the sense of fingers and grasp the changes of "strength" and other forces in the process of diagnosis and treatment.
2.2 Pre-illness prevention, post-illness prevention and holistic treatment.
As the ancients said, when you go to work, you will "cure the disease." That is to say, a smart doctor does not treat a disease when it has become a disease, but prevents it before it has occurred, or stops the spread of the disease when it has already occurred, such as "seeing the disease of the liver, knowing that the liver spreads the spleen, and strengthening the spleen first."
The human body is an organic whole, and the internal organs and limbs are organically connected through meridians. Therefore, acupuncture and moxibustion of zang-fu organs also pays attention to holistic treatment, not to treat headache and foot pain, but to proceed from the whole and carry out comprehensive treatment. Due to the current people's bad living and eating habits, as well as the efficient and fast pace of life, the "sub-health state" in the crowd is becoming more and more serious, and even some bad symptoms appear. If left untreated, it will inevitably lead to diseases. According to its principle, acupuncture at zang-fu organs can not only relieve some symptoms of self-discomfort, but also mobilize human potential, improve immunity and prevent diseases by regulating zang-fu organs' qi, balancing yin and yang and enhancing zang-fu organs' functions. Acupoints of zang-fu organs are often used to regulate the human body, which can make people maintain vigorous energy and strong physique and prolong life.
2.3 Seeking the root of the disease is a prominent feature in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases at zang-fu acupoints.
Su Wen's Theory of Yin and Yang should be like a big picture says: "Yin wins the disease of Yang, while Yang wins the disease of Yin". Weakness of viscera and yin and yang will lead to yin damage and yang damage. Therefore, the essence of the disease is the result of the imbalance of yin and yang in the zang-fu organs. Once the yin and yang of zang-fu organs are destroyed, it will inevitably affect the function of zang-fu, leading to disorder of transportation and transformation of zang-fu organs and qi, and some pathological changes will occur. Therefore, acupuncture and moxibustion of zang-fu organs attaches great importance to regulating the qi content of zang-fu organs, so that "the light ones will rise when they are clear, and the heavy ones will fall when they are turbid." By regulating the qi of viscera, balance yin and yang, and restore the function of viscera. The balance of yin and yang of viscera depends on "kidney yin" and "kidney yang". Because the kidney governs "storing essence and storing qi", it is the origin of viscera and yin and the source of life, so it is called "congenital origin". However, the hidden essence is not only inherited from nature, but more importantly, it is inherited from Shui Gu's visceral excess essence. If the spleen and stomach are out of balance and Shui Gu can't support the kidneys and other viscera, then people are like a car without oil and can't drive, so there is a saying that "spleen failure leads to death". Acupoints on zang-fu organs are used to strengthen the function of spleen and stomach. According to the pathogenesis of zang-fu organs and meridians, combined with the eight principles of syndrome differentiation, the methods of "regulating", "tonifying" and "purging" are used to replenish surplus and deficiency, and the balance of yin and yang in human body is fundamentally adjusted, so that yin is the secret and spirit is the treatment, which truly embodies the idea that treatment must be refined.
Example of medical record: Patient Wang. 4/5 patients with gastric cancer underwent gastrectomy. After two times of chemotherapy in June 2003, the healthy qi was extremely weak, cereal was not eaten for 4 days, and vomiting was frequent. After drinking the water, the family invited the rest to make a diagnosis. It was diagnosed as impaired spleen and stomach function, disorder of viscera and qi, obstruction of middle energizer and upwelling of turbid qi. Therefore, we use the method of "descending the adverse flow and stopping vomiting" and the method of removing turbidity and strengthening the body resistance, that is, first open the door of middle energizer and click "Lanmen point". This point is a special and important point for acupuncture and moxibustion of viscera. Take the point on the umbilicus 1.5 inch, press it for nearly 2 minutes, and then use the drainage method to reduce the turbid qi in the upper jiao. Secondly, lightly adjust and replenish Li points to replenish middle qi. Then point at Qihai point, first vent, and then fine-tune, to promote the rise of yang and protect healthy qi. Treatment 15 minutes to stop vomiting. Then "release" the pulse (that is, operate the "release" pulse with both thumbs and forefinger), further communicate the upper and lower energizers, and make the whole body run smoothly. Then click Zhangmen, Liangmen and Shiguan, and finally click the acupoints at the back. After 1 hour treatment, the patient felt relaxed and hungry, and told him not to vomit after eating a bowl of millet porridge, which felt good. Afraid of its weak transport function, I treated it for half an hour to help it transport. Since then, I have been able to eat every meal and my appetite has gradually increased. After a period of treatment, my body recovered well. After the third and fourth chemotherapy, there were no vomiting symptoms.
3 Zangfu acupoint can be described as "green therapy"
Zang-fu acupoints do not need needles or drugs, but are treated according to syndrome differentiation. Through the profound internal strength of the doctor, both hands or fingers are used to act on the meridian acupoints of the patient, and the qi content of the zang-fu organs is adjusted by methods such as regulating, tonifying, expelling, moving, buckling, pushing, pressing and releasing, so as to damage the excess and replenish the deficiency. This method is non-invasive, painless and has no side effects. It has the value of medical care and can be called "green therapy".
During the treatment, patients receive treatment in a comfortable and relaxed state. Patients will feel relaxed and comfortable after treatment. The treatment time is generally around 1 hour. In other words, it helps the patient to exercise 1 hour. If the patient's spleen and stomach are weak, it can help transport. The ancients said, "Shaking will remove the valley gas". The elimination of Gucci can be transformed into a subtle Shui Gu, so that kidney qi can be filled and the resistance to diseases can be improved. Zangfu acupoint matching method applies special acupoint matching method to abdominal and back acupoints, directly regulates the function of zang-fu organs, and can treat five zang-fu organs. From the point of view of modern medicine, acupuncturing zang-fu organs has a good and long-term effect in promoting human blood circulation, activating cells in the body, exerting human potential and enhancing immunity.
