“通督调神”理论治疗精神疾病的研究进展

Research Progress in Tong Du Tiao Shen of Mental Disorders

精神疾病指的是表现为行为、意志、情感以及认知等精神活动障碍的疾病,中医上多属于情志病范畴。作为目前世界上使用最为广泛的补充替代疗法之一,针灸在精神疾病的治疗中广泛应用,其中以通督调神理论为主要治则的针刺疗法的开展在近年来受到越来越多的重视,然而对于通督调神理论及相关针刺方法体系的建立、应用及机制研究尚未得到很好的归纳总结。因此,本文首先以通督调神理论的起源、发展为切入点,进而阐述了通督调神理论在精神疾病治疗中的运用和多靶点的现代生物学机制,以期提供通督调神针法的科学诠释,同时为未来更深入的探索研究通督调神针法探明方向。

Mental disorders are characterized by disturbances in behavior,volition,emotion,and cognition and are considered emotional diseases in traditional Chinese medicine.Acupuncture is one of the most widely used complementary alternative therapies for the treatment of mental disorders.Recently,there has been growing interest in the use of the Tong Du Tiao Shen(Dredging Du meridian to regulate the spirit)as a primary treatment.However,a comprehensive summary of the establishment and related acupuncture methods of Tong Du Tiao Shen is lacking.This paper aims to address this gap by exploring the origin and development of Tong Du Tiao Shen,its application in treating mental disorders,and the modern biological mechanisms involved.Ultimately,this paper seeks to expand the clinical application of Tong Du Tiao Shen acupuncture and provide a scientific basis for future research in this field.
