基于经筋理论探析颈源性头痛

Analysis of Cervicogenic Headache Based on Meridian Sinews Theory

基于经筋理论,从中西医双重角度探讨经筋与头颈、经筋损伤与颈源性头痛的相关性:手三阳、足三阳经筋分布于肩颈头面浅表,依赖脏腑经脉气血濡养,保证形态、功能稳定,从而保护颈项组织,并维持其正常活动;当经筋结聚之处长期磨损形成结筋病灶点时,造成另一端位于头面部的筋结点疼痛。临床基于“筋骨失衡,以筋为先”理念,采用松筋解结法治疗颈源性头痛可获良效。

Based on the meridian sinews theory,this paper discusses the correlation between meridian sinews and head-and-neck,meridian sinews injury and cervicogenic headache,from the dual perspectives of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine.The three yang meridians of hand and three yang meridians of foot are distributed in the superficial layer of shoulder,neck,head and face,and they depend on qi and blood of viscera and meridians to ensure the stability of their form and function,so as to protect the neck tissue and maintain its normal activities.When the tendon focal knot appears because of the long-term wear and tear of the adhesion points of meridian sinews,it causes pain on the sinew point at the other end of the head and face.Based on the concept of“treating sinews first when there is sinews and bones imbalance”,the method of loosening sinews and resolving knot can be used to treat cervicogenic headache,which can achieve good curative efficacy.
