Characteristics of Zhang bonesetting

It is characterized by the use of small splint fixation, paper splint fixation and small pressure pad in the process of small splint fixation, which reasonably solves the contradiction between fixation and movement, also known as dynamic and static combination, so that fixation does not hinder the limited movement of limbs, but is also beneficial to fixation. Small pressure pads cut according to the bone shape and swelling degree of the wound, such as patella fracture cut into knee-hugging shape, lateral ankle fracture cut into gourd horseshoe shape, etc. , make the function of fracture patients recover well and reduce complications and sequelae.

At present, Louzizhuang's "ancestral Zhang's bonesetting clinic" has been moved from Heping home in Bajie, Changping District to Sihe New Village in Nanshao, Changping, and Beijing Zhang's Mingshantang Chinese Medicine Clinic has been opened to serve patients in this region and other provinces and cities. It is the inheritance and development of traditional medicine in China. Although it has been listed in Contemporary Orthopedic Talents in China, China Medical Code, Treatment Guide for Difficult Diseases, Science China Series and China Expert Talent Pool, it has been praised as "bringing back the dead", "true story of bonesetting", "good luck" and "famous bonesetter in Gyeonggi, whose unique skills have been handed down to the people". Zhang's ancestral secret recipe "Jiegudan" has played a very good role in the treatment, but it has also been applied for preparation; Because many young people don't understand Chinese medicine now, they insist on the tenet of "less money, less pain, better effect and less pain", and treat patients equally, and they are mainly aimed at rural people with no medical insurance and low income, and are not included in the designated units of medical security, so it is difficult to survive and maintain. In order not to lose one of the treasures of Chinese medicine-the ancestral Zhang's osteopathy in Louzizhuang, Beijing, to better carry forward and serve the public, protective measures are imperative.

Zhang's bonesetting in Jinan-Zhang Lin, the fourth generation successor

Most Chinese medicine clinics like to play ancestral signs. But there are few real ancestral Chinese medicine practitioners. In an alley near Drinking Tiger Pond in Luoyuan Street, the provincial capital, there is an inconspicuous orthopedic clinic-the Department of Orthopaedics and Orthopaedics of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shizhong District Hospital Branch. There is only one doctor in the clinic, and there is no advertisement. However, there are an endless stream of patients who come here every day, including ordinary people and celebrities. There is a simple reason. This is a century-old brand that has been passed down for four generations-"Zhang's bonesetting".

"The boy is not as strong as me."

"My hospital has been located opposite Jinan Quanyechang since liberation. There are five main doors in the hospital, followed by the quadrangle where the family lives. At that time, the location of the hospital has now been included in Baotu Spring Park. The reason why I chose to reopen this orthopedic clinic on the west side of the park is to revive my ancestors' career. " Zhang Lin, the fourth generation descendant of "Zhang's bonesetting", told reporters about the original intention of her orthopedic clinic location. Her own hospital was the famous "Zhang Yangwen Cijianmin Orthopedic Hospital" in old Jinan. Zhang Yangwen Ci, the founder, is her great-grandmother, and Zhang Yangwen Ci's medical skill was brought from her family, so it is impossible to verify when it started.

As a treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine, bonesetting is suitable for the treatment of cervical spondylosis, lumbar spondylosis and traumatic injury in clinic. "Zhang's bonesetting" is a self-contained "skin reduction" combined with manual traction, supplemented by massage to treat patients. The reporter saw in the clinic in Zhang Lin that when treating every patient, she should not only concentrate a hundred times, but also be full of physical luck. After some treatment, both the patient and the healer are sweating.

"Boning is a technical activity as well as a physical activity. Because of long working hours, young men are generally not as strong as my hands. At the same time, because I can bear hardships, my family broke the tradition of' passing on children without passing on women' and made an exception to teach me the skills of heirloom. " Zhang Lin said that showing her palm to reporters, due to professional training, her palm became thick and full of calluses.

The reporter learned that at present, those who come to her clinic are either recommended by old patients or come here. Many people were recommended by patients who were cured by her father or grandfather twenty or thirty years ago. The influence of time-honored brands can be seen here. When the famous calligrapher Ouyang came to Jinan from 65438 to 0998, he once talked about the famous "Zhang's bonesetting" in old Jinan. When he learned that Zhang Yangwen's great-granddaughter Zhang Lin had inherited her ancestral business, he immediately asked her to treat cervical pain for four times. After treatment, the effect is very good. Mr Ouyang presented an impromptu banner of "Zhengzi Disease" to encourage her to carry forward her ancestral career.

Han Fuju sent a thank-you plaque.

In Zhang Lin's home, there are two plaques 70 years ago, one wood and one copper. They were presented by Han Fuju, chairman of Shandong Province before liberation, and Han Fuming, his younger brother.

According to Zhang Lian, Zhang Lin's father, Han Fuju's son accidentally fell upstairs, and his thigh fell motionless and hurt badly. At that time, I visited famous doctors of Chinese and Western medicine in major hospitals, and the answer was either hopeless or lifelong disability. Finally, I turned to his grandmother Zhang Yangwen for help and was diagnosed with comminuted femoral fracture, subluxation of hip joint and trauma. Zhang Yangwen was restored by relying on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for bone setting and skin separation, supplemented by splint and external traction fixation, and the "Jiegudan" passed down from family. After more than two months of careful treatment, he began to resume his activities, and later his leg did not leave any sequelae. In order to thank him for saving his son, Han Fuju asked Mo Wang, a famous calligrapher, to present a large plaque with the handwritten inscription "Learning to be rich will break your arm". Han Fuju's younger brother, Han Fuming, presented Zhang Yangwen with a bronze plaque engraved with the silver head of his great-grandmother.

Treating dignitaries is just an episode in Zhang Yangwen's medical career. In her eyes, saving people is an eternal duty, regardless of rank. Before liberation, those poor people who had to do heavy manual labor for their livelihood often suffered from falls, setbacks, twists and turns, falls and other injuries. Every time they come to see a doctor, Ci and her son Zhang Yongtai always check their condition and ask them if they want to eat. Patients can often not only solve the pain here, but also eat their stomachs. "At that time, the Zhang family had a good reputation in Jinan. Treating the poor is not only free, but also free. " Aunt Mi, an old street in the Hui community, recalled.

It is more difficult to learn art than to pass it on.

Looking back on the inheritance history of "Zhang's bonesetting", we can say that we have experienced many ups and downs.

1956 Qilu Hospital invited Ci and Zhang Yongtai to set up the Orthopedic Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Zhang Yangwen Ci was one of the five famous doctors in the hospital at that time, and Zhang Yongtai, who had excellent medical skills, was often invited for consultation and treatment by major hospitals in Jinan, and his family's bone-setting skills also jumped from family hospitals to outpatient departments of major hospitals. However, the good times did not last long. After the "Cultural Revolution" began, Zhang Yongtai was branded as a reactionary technical authority and was criticized in the bullpen. His son Zhang Lian was sent to work in a small hospital in the countryside of Jiyang County, where he stayed for more than ten years. There are many orthopedic patients in rural areas, such as falls, blows and injuries. Zhang Lian treated patients silently. He didn't abandon his ancestral osteopathy, but formed his own unique osteopathy on this basis.

"From the early 1980s, I began to learn massage, acupuncture and bonesetting techniques from my grandfather and father. After more than ten years, I dared to treat patients independently. " Zhang Lin said. She mentioned that experience and skills are two barriers to learning bonesetting. The former needs time to accumulate, while the latter needs repeated attempts to master. Without more than ten years of work, it is impossible to "break the crux" in one hand.

Talking about the inheritance of this family science, she said that there is no plan at present. Not because I am afraid to learn from my family, but mainly because I am worried that I can't find an apprentice who can study patiently and let my medical skills "go out of shape". Once this happens, I believe there will be an endless legacy. At present, there are all kinds of "Chinese medicine families" in the society with ancestral signs, who are giving people bonesetting, massage and selling magical drugs, which not only swindle money but also delay people's illness. Taking the treatment of cervical and lumbar spondylosis as an example, patients often mistakenly believe advertisements and forget the most basic common sense because of unbearable pain. Those so-called imperial doctors who advocate that they can "get rid of the disease immediately" as long as they take a magical medicine, paste a magical ointment and put a magical pillow are at best doing a temporary solution instead of a permanent cure!
