针刺刺激可达到前气功状态

目的：研究在短时间之内使普通人进入前气功状态的方法。方法：健康的试验参与者以不随机的方式纳入本次研究。使用多通道生理记录仪检测试验参与者是否有进入前气功状态。参与者在针刺合谷穴的时候获得酸（得气）的感觉,同时暗示参与者丹田处有热及放松的感觉,由此让参与者进入一个松、静、自然的前气功状态。结果：本研究中,72.2%没有习练气功经历的参与者成功进入前气功状态。参与者进入气功状态后,大部分生理指标与基线指标相比有显著差异。结论：使用针刺引起酸的感觉可以让试验参与者快速进入前气功状态。因此气功的研究不再限制在特定的人才可以实行,本研究方法可以应用到每个人身上。

To accomplish preliminary Qigong simulation state by acupuncture

The purpose of the study was to find out how to enter the preliminary Qigong simulation state in a short period of time.Methods:This is a non-randomized,human experiment with healthy participants.A multichannel digital physiological data recorder was used to detect whether the participants had entered the Qigong state.Participants were assisted to enter the Qigong state (relaxation,tranquility and naturalness) by being given the sore (sour) feeling produced by acupuncturing Hegu (LI4),and suggestions (repeating words "relax" and "heat" from the hypogastrium).Results:About 72.2％ of the participants who had no Qigong experience were found entering the preliminary Qigong simulation state.Most of the physiological parameters measured after the participants entering the Qigong state showed significant changes compared with the baseline data.Conclusion:This study revealed that acupuncture-made sore feeling is able to induce the participants to quickly enter the preliminary Qigong simulation state; hence this can be seen as no longer a limited phenomenon,but can be commonly applied to everybody.
