It can be used to treat many kinds of diseases, such as parietal headache, vertigo and blurred vision, hypopharynx swelling and pain, dry tongue, voice loss, epistaxis, apoplexy and apoplectic sequela, dysufia, ungratifying defecation, epilepsy, syncope, planter fever, palpitations, lower limbs spasm, hypertension, vomiting, infantile convulsion. The author applied Yongquan (KI 1) in clinical practice and obtained satisfactory therapeutic effects. Now five cases were introduced as follows.展开更多

Methods: A total of 46 cases were randomly allocated into an acupuncture group and a medication group by the random alphabet table. Cases in the acupuncture group were treated with acupuncture aiming to nourish yin and tonify the kidney, whereas cases in the medication group were treated with oral administration of Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan (Anemarrhena, Phellodendron and Rehmannia Pill). Then the static total saliva flow rate and cube sugar dissolving scores in the two groups before and after treatments were compared and analyzed. Results: The total effective rate in the acupuncture group was 87.0%, versus 60.9% in the medication group, showing a statistical significance (P〈0.05). After treatment, the static total saliva flow rates and cube sugar test scores were significantly improved in both groups (P〈0.05 or P〈0.01), there were statistical differences regarding both the static total saliva flow rates and cube sugar test scores between the two groups (P〈0.01). Conclusion: Acupuncture therapy aiming to nourish yin and tonify the kidney could achieve better results than oral Zhi Bai Di Huang Wan (Anemarrhena, Phellodendron and Rehmannia Pill) and cause no adverse reactions.展开更多
