Abdominal diagnosis and acupuncture involve using palpation of the abdomen to identify positive signs and then selecting corresponding acupuncture points for treatment based on these signs. This is a simple and practical diagnostic and treatment method that can be applied across various clinical disciplines, enabling practitioners to confidently address a wide range of clinical conditions and improve their therapeutic efficacy.
The Modern Abdominal Diagnosis Acupuncture System breaks away from TCM diagnosis and treatment methods. This system is based on standardized acupoint positioning, achieving standardized diagnosis and treatment. It is simple, easy to use, and effective. Therefore, it is more conducive to promoting and popularizing acupuncture technology globally.
Standardization of Modern Abdominal Diagnostic Examination
The main content of modern abdominal diagnostic examination includes:
Holographic positioning examination of the five internal organs in the abdomen, based on the <Nanjing: Sixteenth Difficulty>.
Examination of the positioning of internal organs in the chest and abdomen, guided by the twelve Mu acupoints on the meridians.
Examination of special acupoints in the chest and abdomen.
Examination of related muscles and internal organs, based on modern anatomical knowledge.
All these examination areas are marked based on standardized acupoint positioning. This method provides a unified standard for abdominal diagnosis, which previously lacked precise positioning.
discussion
As long as there are positive abdominal signs, standardized treatment based on these signs can be implemented, with significant clinical results.
In abdominal diagnosis acupuncture treatment, treating the abdominal signs takes precedence over treating present symptoms. The focus is on reducing and eliminating the positive signs discovered during the abdominal examination, which is the core of holistic treatment. This is the first step in treatment, with symptomatic treatment following later.
For each abdominal sign, there is a corresponding acupoint or set of acupoints that is used to reduce or eliminate the positive sign. Based on the correlation between abdominal signs and specific acupoints, we can accurately determine the next set of acupoints to be used for treatment. This method ensures effective treatment without the need for syndrome differentiation. The presence of abdominal signs directly informs the selection of acupoints, allowing for standardized treatment.
For instance, if there is tenderness in the liver reflex area, we know to needle the Zhongfeng (LV4) and Chize (LU5) points on the left side to reduce or eliminate the tenderness in the liver reflex area, achieving a healing effect.
Abdominal diagnosis technology originated in China but was further developed in Japan. Dr. Ying Wang created the modern abdominal diagnosis and acupuncture system by integrating traditional Chinese abdominal diagnostic methods from the Nanjing text with those of the Nagano-Matsumoto school in Japan. This system combines the diagnostic methods of both Chinese and Western medicine to enhance the accuracy of abdominal diagnosis, making it more characteristic of traditional Chinese medicine. The treatment methods used include acupuncture with gold water therapy, warm and cooling needle techniques, and breathing-acupuncture to regulate Qi, further improving the abdominal acupuncture diagnosis and treatment system.
A modern abdominal diagnosis and acupuncture system has gradually formed, focusing on abdominal diagnosis and the holistic treatment of internal syndromes, supplemented by symptomatic treatment. This system successfully addresses key clinical issues in diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. It features standardized diagnosis and treatment protocols, is easy to learn and master, and achieves obvious clinical effects. It is particularly well-suited for standardized acupuncture education and its global promotion.
