What is the principle of acupuncture?

The principle of acupuncture is to stimulate the biological response of the body. Through systematic clinical observation and experimental research, it can be basically clear that acupuncture has a certain effect on the immune system and the orientation of each system.

The role of acupuncture and moxibustion

Acupuncture mainly works by stimulating acupoints. Acupuncture can generally be used to dredge meridians and regulate human balance. Chinese medicine believes that the human body is sick because of the imbalance of yin and yang in the body, which leads to the weakness of the source and the inability to overcome the pathogenic factors, resulting in the stagnation of qi and blood in the meridians. Therefore, acupuncture can effectively dredge qi and blood and restore the balance of yin and yang.

Moreover, from the results of modern research, acupuncture has a certain regulatory and analgesic effect, and can be used to treat diseases of systems and organs. Because acupoints are mainly distributed in the skin and deep tissues, and have various sensitivities, various forms of stimulation can be felt through acupuncture. Through stimulation, the body can send out signals to promote the healing of the body.

Principles and types of acupuncture and moxibustion

The principle of acupuncture is similar to hitting this acupoint with something, which causes some reactions at the acupoint and brings positive feedback to the human body. In addition to the most common mechanical stimulation of filiform needles, acupuncture also includes electroacupuncture and moxibustion, which mainly stimulate the body through warmth. From the traditional meridian science, after all, it is mainly through the different depths of different acupoints in the human body. For example, acupoints with rich muscles are deep, and acupoints with thin muscles are shallow. Generally speaking, acupoints have different functions because of their different structures.

In the process of acupuncture, acupoint receptors will transform different forms of energy into nerve impulses through actions, so that these stimulating information can be transmitted to the center. As for some visceral diseases, the main pathological reactions can be seen through the acupuncture points on the human body surface, and the abnormality of acupuncture points and the changes of tissue morphology can be felt during acupuncture.

Acupuncture is mainly used in TCM clinic.

At present, acupuncture is mainly used in TCM clinic. It can play a very good role in relieving pain and regulating the endocrine disorder of the body, because acupuncture can speed up the blood circulation of the body, thus speeding up the recovery of the damaged body. But most of the time acupuncture is still used for some mild symptoms. If you find some diseases in your body, you should go to the hospital in time.

In fact, the final treatment depends on your own immune system. Only by establishing good immunity can you have good defense ability, and then your ability to resist viruses and other foreign objects will be improved. Acupuncture is mainly to dredge meridians, make qi and blood run normally and create a balanced environment for the body. Because Chinese medicine believes that the immune system and meridians are integrated, most Chinese medicine practitioners will use acupuncture to treat patients.
