One needle cures 1000 diseases
The ancient wisdom, “One needle can cure a thousand diseases,” highlights the importance of precision. Choosing the correct acupuncture point initiates a transformative healing process, unlocking deep changes within the patient.
To affect the deepest layers and refine Qi manipulation, practitioners must carefully analyze the acupuncture point. This involves considering its action, name, meridian nature, location, pulse diagnosis and other clinical factors.
This presentation explores a common clinical challenge: treating both physical and psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. Practitioners are guided to refine their diagnosis by integrating the four pillars of diagnosis, with a particular focus on observing the eyes and the Shen. This observation helps uncover the patient’s inner story of suffering, desires, and potential for healing, also reveals the dynamics of the Shen, Hun, Po, Yi, and Zhi in diagnosis.
Profound healing can often be achieved with minimal acupuncture points, even just a single point. Touching the patient’s heart and fostering unity transforms the core and root of the disease, initiating powerful and lasting healing.
