易医脐针治疗干眼症

Treating Dry Eye Syndrome by Using Navel Acupuncture I-Ching Medicine Theory

脐针疗法是通过针刺脐部调动人体先天经气,从而进行治疗的一种新的针刺方法。脐针治疗干眼症强调"因人治宜"。临证以震、离、坤3个方位为主穴,但具体到每一个患者时,应结合其脐部望诊、触诊及整体辨证,并可根据其兼见症状进行随症加减。脐针治疗较少运用手法补泻,注重定位治疗、方位补泻,且强调进针顺序。精准定位与方位的补泻配伍是脐针治疗的关键点,用针一般要求少而精,讲究"下针必有方向,进针需含补泻"。选定方位及进针顺序前可综合考虑主次症状、发病部位、脏腑辨证、五行生克制化、六十四卦象吉凶等,选择其中一个或综合多个全息进行选穴,依序针刺,或根据脐部某方位上的色变点,局部皮肤的褶皱、凹陷等异常点灵活定位进针,若能将多个全息同时应用于一组选穴中,临床疗效更佳。

Navel acupuncture is a new acupuncture method that mobilizes the human body′s innate meridian Qi by acupuncturing the navel area for treatment.The navel acupuncture in treatment of dry eye syndrome emphasizes"adjusting measures based on individual case".The main points for clinical application are in Zhen,Li,and Kun directions,however,when it comes to the individual,the umbilical inspection,palpation,and overall pattern differentiation should be taken into consideration,and the treatment should be modified according to patients concomitant symptoms.The Navel acupuncture treatment seldom uses the reinforcing and reducing method,but more focusing on the measures of pointing location,reinforcement and reduction by point location,and emphasizes the sequence of needling.Precise locating and the supplementation and draining combination of acupuncture points are keyed to the Navel acupuncture treatment.The needles are required to be less in number but precise in location,and the process of needling must have a direction,and needs to show the technique of supplementation and draining.Before selecting the location and the needling sequence,the primary and secondary symptoms,the location of the disease,the Zang and Fu syndrome identification,the engendering,restraining as well as inhibition and generation between the five phases,and the good or bad omen in the sixty-four hexagrams should be taken into consideration.Treatment should be based on one or multiple holograms to select acupuncture points and needling in sequence or needling flexibly according to the abnormal points such as color change point,the folds or sunken of local skin around the navel.However,multiple holograms bei ngapplied to one group of selected points simultaneously is preferred.
