針灸立法
Principles of Acupuncture and Moxibustion
針灸的立法包括兩個(gè)內(nèi)容，一是依據(jù)病位，確定選取的經(jīng)穴；一是依據(jù)病性，制定治療大法，即《靈樞九針十二原》指出的“凡用針者，虛則實(shí)之，滿則瀉之，菀陳則除之”和《靈樞經(jīng)脈》所說的“熱則疾之，寒則留之，陷下則灸之，不盛不虛，以經(jīng)取之”等。"虛則實(shí)之"是指正氣不足的人針時(shí)用補(bǔ)法以恢復(fù)人體的正氣，扶正而祛邪；"滿則瀉之"是指邪氣盛滿的病人要用瀉的方法施術(shù)；"菀陳則除之"是指經(jīng)脈瘀阻的病人用放血法以消除瘀滯；"熱則疾之"是指治熱性病要疾刺疾出，以退其熱邪；"寒則留之"是指寒邪較重的病人應(yīng)留針；"陷下則灸之"是指元陽暴脫，汗出不止，子官下垂，脫肛等病人，要用灸法以升陽固脫；"不盛不虛，以經(jīng)取之"是指病的虛實(shí)表現(xiàn)不明顯時(shí)，可用平補(bǔ)平瀉的方法取本經(jīng)腧穴進(jìn)行治療。
There are two methods to establish principles. One is to select points according to the location of disease, the other is to work out treatment method according to the nature of disease. That is "strengthening Deficiency" refers to the deficiency syndrome that should be treated with notification and support of the Primordial Qi in acupuncture. "The excess should be relieved" refers to treating excess syndrome by dispelling the pathogenic factors, "Wan Chem Zed Chu Zhi"means treating continuous sweating, prostration of Yang exhaustion, prolapse of uterus and rectum by moxibustion to invigorate the spleen function and send vital energy and nutrients upward for prolapse of rectum and uterus. "If symptom appears neither excessive nor deficient, the mothod of even reinforcing and reducing can be usde"refers when the symptoms of deficiency syndrome and the excess syndrome are not obvious, the method of even reinforcing and reducing can be used on selected points of the affected meridian.
