基于《黄帝内经》探讨巨刺的理论基础及应用

Exploration on the theoretical basis and applications of contralateral channel needling based on Huangdi Neijing

“巨刺”源于《黄帝内经》,是古代刺法“九刺”中的一种,经言“八曰巨刺,左取右,右取左”。针刺经脉,左右交叉取穴为其独特之处。沿古至今,巨刺在针灸临床中疗效显著,尤其是沉疴痼疾。但查阅相关文献发现,巨刺虽临床应用广泛,但缺乏对其理论的系统探讨,且常易与缪刺相混。因此,文章基于《黄帝内经》,从巨刺的渊源、理论依据、操作特点以及临床应用等不同角度,对巨刺进行深入探讨,以期能为医者提供思路和灵感,为其临床更好地推广和应用奠定基础。

The term'contralateral channel needling'originates from the Huangdi Neijing,which is one of the nine acupuncture techniques in ancient times.It is recorded in Huangdi Neijing that,‘The eighth is the contralateral channel needling,the diseases on the left side are treated from the right side,and the diseases on the right side are treated from the left side',which makes it unique.Throughout ancient times,contralateral channel needling has a significant effect in the clinical practice,especially for severe chronic diseases.However,by reviewing the relevant literature,it is found that although contralateral channel needling is widely used in clinical practice,there is a lack of systematic discussion on its theory,and it is often confused with Miu-acupuncture.Therefore,based on Huangdi Neijing,this article will make a discussion on the origin,theoretical basis,operation characteristics and clinical application of contralateral channel needling,in order to provide more ideas and inspiration for doctors and lay the foundation for its better clinical application.
