How to learn acupuncture? How to learn zero foundation?

I want to make a brief introduction here. Acupuncture therapy is a science guided by the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the theory of meridians and acupoints and acupuncture methods. The basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is a national standard textbook. In fact, it expresses ancient legal theories such as Neijing, Treatise on Febrile Diseases, Difficult Classics, and Theory on the Origin of Various Diseases in modern language.

If we don't understand the thinking mode of TCM, and use the theoretical system and logical thinking of modern western medicine to understand TCM, we will often pursue specific methods, specific acupoints, specific acupuncture depth and specific needle retention time. It is normal to try these requirements, but you are already thinking about Chinese medicine with logical thinking. In traditional Chinese medicine, "disease" and "syndrome" are closely related different concepts.

Disease is a summary of the characteristics and development law of the whole process of disease, and syndrome is a summary of the position and nature of the disease at this stage. Therefore, Chinese medicine emphasizes the combination of "disease differentiation" and "syndrome differentiation", which is conducive to a comprehensive understanding of the nature of the disease and can make treatment plans.

There is an introductory book on acupuncture, and Xiaobai can read a special book on the basis of ancient acupuncture. This book is suitable for Xiao Bai and relatively easy to understand. You can read more classic ancient books in the early stage. This book focuses on meridians and acupoints, with many pictures and detailed explanations.
