Qi-Acupuncture: An Effective and Simple Acupuncture Method Based upon Ancient Chinese Acupuncture Literature and Clinical Experience

摘要

The main effect of acupuncture can be described as mobilization and movement of qi and blood. It is reasonable to state that this effect is uniform and valid for the needling of all acupoints. The authors have concluded that the fundamental healing effect of acupuncture is the mobilization and movement of qi and by application of the most powerful acupoints and acupoint combinations, any kind of symptoms and diseases can be treated successfully. The theoretical reason for this is the qi. The qi implies the yin and the yang as well as the Five Elements. The Tao (or emptiness) created the Universe, the Universe created the qi, the qi created the yin and the yang. The yin and the yang created the Four Seasons (the time) and the Five Elements. The Five Elements created man and 1000 creatures. So when concentrating the acupoint selection on the qi, the differentiation according to yin and yang are no longer necessary because acupuncture is carried out on a level above the level of the Five Elements and the level of yin and yang! Therefore, one can differentiate between acupuncture of yin and yang (and Five Elements) level, and acupuncture of the qi level. The acupuncture on the qi levels the authors call qi Acupuncture. Qi Acupuncture is carried out in four stages using different categories of acupoints: Chronoacupuncture, "Basis Points", diagnosis related distant points, and local or Ashi points.
