摘要
"Ase points" refer to a kind of effective acupoints used in acupuncture- moxibustion treatment for various diseases of internal medicine, and the location with obvious color change on patient's skin is selected as treatment site. The method of diagnosis and treatment of diseases through examining the response of meridians and collaterals and acupoints on the body surface had been recorded in ancient books, however, it is rare during clinical acupuncture therapy to taking the color change on patient's skin as research emphasis, and taking these sensitive points as specific acupoints to conduct acupuncture- moxibustion therapy. The author explored and analyzed "Ase points" in terms of the nomenclature, acupoint selection method, and etc., and verified the application of "Ase points", providing a new idea for clinical diagnosis and treatment methods of acupuncture-moxibustion.
"阿色穴"是一类治疗内科杂病的经验效穴,是以患者局部皮肤色泽明显改变处作为针灸治疗部位。通过检查患者相关体表经络穴位反映,诊断治疗疾病的方法在古籍中早有记载,但将局部体表皮肤色泽改变作为研究重点,并以此种反映点作为特殊腧穴进行针灸治疗的验案在现代针灸临床中鲜见。笔者从"阿色穴"的命名由来、取穴方法等方面对"阿色穴"进行探析,并以验案证之,为针灸临床诊治方法提供一新的思路。
