How much do you know about the principle of acupuncture treatment in traditional Chinese medicine?

Like acupoint massage, acupoint scraping, acupoint cupping, acupoint injection, acupoint bloodletting, and acupoint moxibustion, the therapeutic principle of acupuncture is to play a two-way adjustment role on the corresponding organs and tissues by pulling the acupoints, using the principle of "human baroreceptor" and the principle of nerve reflex arc. This is a scientific hypothesis that I put forward ten years ago. Acupoints are baroreceptors of human body. So far, this is the only scientific hypothesis about acupoints. Why local pressurization, freezing stimulation, and liquid injection on the meridian line can block sensory conduction also works through the principle of baroreceptor. All three methods have pulling effect on muscle tissue passing through acupoints, which counteracts the pulling effect on muscle spasm, so that the pulling effect on acupoints disappears, the baroreceptor is adjusted and the corresponding organs are also adjusted. The principle of moxibustion is the same as acupuncture. Firstly, acupoint tissue is pulled by thermal expansion and cold contraction. All moxibustion methods are alternating hot and cold, such as rotary moxibustion, sparrow moxibustion, followed by scar moxibustion. Scar tissue permanently pulls acupoints, and there are rich blood vessels in acupoint tissue. With the fluctuation of blood pressure, scar leads to the weakening of local tissue elasticity and the increase of tension. ……
