Analysis on developmental characteristics of acupoint theory
The theory of acupoints has gone through a long process from its embryonic form to its maturity
including its gradual improvement in later generations. Starting from the acupuncture literature in different historical periods
we
in the present paper
gave some examples and analyzed the connotation of important concepts in the development of acupoint theory. It is believed that the signs of the establishment of acupoint theory mainly include the standardization of acupoints' names
the specific description of acupoint positioning
the enrichment and explicitation of the content of acupoints' indications
the highlights of the meridian theory via classification of acupoints
and the interpretation of connotations of acupoints from a clinical perspective.
“Pain-point needling”: an interpretation based on the context and therapeutic principles of muscles along the twelve regular meridians
Regularities of application of acupoints to relieving clinical indications of Sanguan(cun,guan and chi,three places at the wrist where the pulse is usually taken)in classical book Mai Jing(Pulse Classic)
