In such needling manipulations, several conditions are considered, such as the speed of insertion and withdrawal of needle, lifting and thrusting of needle, nine yang number and six yin number, as well as open or close of point after withdrawal; additionally, the needling manipulations are accomplished in three layers, named heaven, earth and human being. The manipulations of these two techniques are complicated and are not easily mastered, therefore, the successful rate of the clinical application is rather low and the many beginners feel difficult in learning. In recent 20 years, on the basis of the original techniques, by constant discussion, a kind of simple manipulation has been developed and the success of the operation becomes quite high. During 10 years, from 1978 to 1997, by the statistical analysis on the clinical data of 'mountain burning manipulation (烧山火)' and 'heavenly cool-inducing technique (透天凉)',the successful rate in clinic had been over 90%. The following is the introduction on the modified operation, steps and clinical application.展开更多

Selection of acupoints based on the differentiation of syndromes is in the category of holistic treatment and the treatment of Ben. The local selected acupoints on nerve lesion surface may work on the affected area directly and play the important significance in the recovery of nerve function. But, facial paralysis is chiefly manifested as the holistic disorder of the body and its pathological mechanism is quite complicated, with much more syndromes. Hence, in order to achieve satisfactory therapeutic effects, it is necessary to distinguish the etiology, classify the syndromes, make the differentiation of syndromes and apply systematic treatment. It is the main approach to select the acupoints based on the differentiation and it is viewed that the organic combination is the key between the selection of acupoints based on nerve lesion surface and that based on differentiation of syndromes so that the therapeutic effect may be enhanced.展开更多
