易医脐针疗法研究进展

脐针疗法是齐永教授基于对《周易》的研读和理解,通过大量临床经验总结出来的新型针灸疗法,目前在临床上正逐步被接纳和使用。脐针疗法治疗各科疾病疗效均较为显著。单独应用该疗法的临床研究较少,临床上多配合其他疗法如针刺、艾灸、中药等,来达到治愈目的。脐针与针刺配合应用,主治疾病种类广泛;与艾灸配合则多用于治疗妇科疾病;与中药结合则主治内科疾病。有关脐针疗法尚缺少系统性研究及统一的疗效标准,且实际操作有一定困难和危险,故而发展受限。而在治未病方面的研究亦较少。今后的研究应在坚持原有理论的基础上深入探讨,克服操作困难,开展系统性研究。

Umbilical needling therapy of I-Ching is a new kind of acupuncture therapy conducted by Professor Qi Yong,based on and the comprehension of Zhou Yi,and enormous clinical experiences.It has now been accepted and usedgradually.Umbilical needling treatments of various diseases are with obvious effect.There are few clinical studies on the application of this therapy alone,and it is more combined with other therapies such as acupuncture,moxibustion and Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)for the purpose of healing.A wide range of diseases could be traeated by the combination of umbilical needling therapy and acupuncture.Umbilical needling therapy combined with moxibustion is often used to treat gynecological diseases.Internal diseases could be traeated by the combination of umbilical needling therapy and TCM.The umbilical needling therapy still lacks of systematic research and uniformed curative effect standard,and there are some difficulties and risks in practice.Therefore,its development has limitations.Besides,there are few studies on the"preventive treatment of disease".The future research should base on the original theory,overcome the operational difficulties and carry out systematic research.
