Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of governor vessel moxibustion, and specifically relates to a "five-color soil" traditional Chinese medicine composition for governor vessel moxibustion. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion was anciently called "moxibustion by burning", which refers to the method of treating diseases by burning herbs for fumigation. In "Plain Questions. Different Therapeutic Methods for Different Regions", it is stated that "In the area where the land is high and people live on high mounds, with cold winds and ice, the people there like to live in the wild and breastfeed, and their internal organs are cold and prone to fullness diseases. The appropriate treatment for them is moxibustion by burning. Therefore, moxibustion by burning also originated from the north." It mostly uses moxa floss as the main material, also known as moxibustion, which has a long historical evolution, is highly regarded by medical experts of all dynasties, and has a wide mass base among the people. It is a commonly used method for treating diseases and maintaining health in traditional Chinese medicine. It has achieved good effects in the treatment and prevention of diseases among the middle-aged and elderly, those with deficiency-cold constitutions, and bone and joint diseases, and has extensive practicality and application value.

[0003] The theoretical basis of governor vessel moxibustion stems from the methods of medicinal ironing in "Huangdi Neijing" such as "For diseases in the bones, select the governor vessel; for diseases of deficiency-cold, use medicinal moxibustion" and "For diseases in the bones, use needling and medicinal ironing". Governor vessel moxibustion therapy is based on the theory of the governor vessel's circulation in the meridian theory and combines the characteristics of traditional moxibustion methods. "Interposed-material moxibustion" is applied to the spinal segment of the governor vessel, and the treatment area also includes Huatuojiaji acupoints and the back-shu acupoints of the bladder meridian, which are the key points for the qi of the five zang-organs and six fu-organs to be infused. It has the effects of tonifying the kidney and dredging the governor vessel, warming yang and dispelling cold, strengthening bones and penetrating muscles, removing stasis and dissipating nodules, and dredging collaterals and relieving pain.

[0004] Governor vessel moxibustion is not simply moxibustion on the governor vessel. Its technical system is an innovative characteristic external treatment technique based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine external treatment methods combined with the characteristics of traditional moxibustion methods, and is summarized from long-term folk applications and the clinical experience of medical experts of all dynasties. Governor vessel moxibustion is not only beneficial to rheumatic bone diseases of the neck, shoulders, waist and legs, but also very suitable for the traditional Chinese medicine rehabilitation of various visceral diseases related to the spine. It is mostly used for treating ankylosing spondylitis and spine-related diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, lumbar disc herniation, osteoarthritis, senile osteoporosis, femoral head necrosis, gynecological cold womb dysmenorrhea, etc., kidney yang deficiency, low immunity, etc., and has the effects of regulating the body's immune function, detoxifying and health care, and anti-aging.

[0005] Traditional governor vessel moxibustion therapy generally only uses moxa floss and ginger.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0031] Based on the theory of the five elements - five zang-organs - five colors in traditional Chinese medicine, this invention develops a traditional Chinese medicine composition according to the different properties, flavors, meridian tropisms, colors and efficacy of traditional Chinese medicines. It innovatively uses a five-color traditional Chinese medicine composition in the traditional governor vessel moxibustion therapy, and conducts syndrome differentiation and treatment more pertinently.

[0032] This invention not only overcomes the deficiency of the traditional governor vessel moxibustion therapy lacking the participation of traditional Chinese medicines, but also can explore acupoints along the meridians to detect the actual therapeutic effects of the meridian acupoints, and combines the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine in terms of constitution, disease and syndrome differentiation to provide all-round individualized treatment.

[0033] This invention can enhance the curative effect of governor vessel moxibustion, and has the magical effects of regulating the zang-organs, promoting yang qi, warming the meridians and dredging collaterals, promoting qi and activating blood circulation, dispelling cold and dampness, removing stasis and relieving pain.

Description of the Drawings

[0035] Figure 1 Pictures of the cyan, red, yellow, white and black compositions.

[0036] Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the use of the traditional Chinese medicine composition of this invention. Detailed Embodiments

[0037] The following further illustrates the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments, but does not limit the present invention in any way.

[0038] Du moxibustion generates heat that conducts from the surface to the depth of human tissues, dilates the terminal blood vessels between the subcutaneous muscles, increases local blood flow, promotes blood circulation, and then adjusts the body's physiological responses. The warm effect soothes the soft tissues such as the trapezius muscle, latissimus dorsi muscle, rhomboid muscle, semispinalis muscle, erector spinae muscle, multifidus muscle, rotator muscle, intertransverse muscle, supraspinous ligament, and interspinous ligament in the treatment area, reduces the myofascial tension, and then improves the spinous process space, transverse process space, and vertebral body space of the spine, thus improving the spinal nerve environment and activating and restoring nerve function. The spinal cord emits spinal nerves that affect the sympathetic nervous system through the gray and white communicating branches, adjusting and improving the metabolism of the corresponding organs. The warm effect generated by Du moxibustion can also improve cerebrospinal fluid circulation and spinal cord blood supply. All in all, Du moxibustion can regulate the overall balance of the body and achieve the effect of treating diseases and injuries.

[0039] The 5 color compositions in the five-color traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention are respectively ground into fine powder for standby. Before traditional Du moxibustion treatment, appropriate amounts of the powders of the 5 color compositions are respectively taken out, infiltrated and mixed into a paste with a yellow rice wine and rice vinegar solution mixed in a 1:1 ratio, and left standing for more than 30 minutes for standby, so that more water-soluble and fat-soluble active ingredients in the medicine can be absorbed by the transmitters.

[0040] First, give the patient "Traditional Chinese medicine constitution-disease-syndrome differentiation diagnosis and treatment". Through the comprehensive diagnosis of the four diagnostic methods, the syndrome differentiation type is obtained. Based on the syndrome differentiation type, the relevant zang-fu organs can be determined, and the corresponding back-shu points can be obtained. Each zang-fu organ has corresponding five elements and five colors. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory: the liver corresponds to the liver shu point-wood-green, the gallbladder corresponds to the gallbladder shu point-wood-green, the heart corresponds to the heart shu point-fire-red, the small intestine corresponds to the small intestine shu point-fire-red, the spleen corresponds to the spleen shu point-earth-yellow, the stomach corresponds to the stomach shu point-earth-yellow, the lung corresponds to the lung shu point-metal-white, the large intestine corresponds to the large intestine shu point-metal-white, the kidney corresponds to the kidney shu point-water-black, and the bladder corresponds to the bladder shu point-water-black. (For example: for a patient with the syndrome of spleen and kidney yang deficiency, the back-shu points corresponding to the abnormal spleen and kidney functions are the spleen shu point and the kidney shu point. The spleen corresponds to the spleen shu point-earth-yellow, and the kidney corresponds to the kidney shu point-water-black.)

[0041] The treated person lies prone to fully expose the back. The therapist finds the areas with hard nodules, cords, tenderness, and abnormal pain on palpation through observation and manual palpation. These are the Ashi points of the patient.

[0042] The therapist locates the above-mentioned back-shu points and Ashi points on the back of the treated person and makes marks.

[0043] Start the treatment operation. Dip a cotton swab in an appropriate amount of ginger juice and apply it on the above-mentioned back-shu points and Ashi points. According to the back-shu points and Ashi points corresponding to the five elements of "wood, fire, earth, metal, and water", and according to the five colors of "green, red, yellow, white, and black" corresponding to the five elements, then apply and place the corresponding "green, red, yellow, white, and black" medicine powder paste.

[0044] Place the traditional Chinese medicine paste on the corresponding back shu points and Ashi points, and start the routine Du moxibustion treatment operation. Utilize the warm effect generated by Du moxibustion to conduct and stimulate the acupoints, enabling the medicinal properties to penetrate into the meridians and blood vessels through the body surface, promoting the percutaneous absorption of some effective components of traditional Chinese medicine, increasing the auxiliary curative effect, and thus achieving the effect of treating diseases and preventing diseases.

[0045] Traditional Du moxibustion therapy only uses moxa floss and ginger, without giving full play to the important advantages of external treatment with traditional Chinese medicine. Combining traditional Du moxibustion therapy with external application of traditional Chinese medicine and ironing therapy is an effective solution.

[0046] For each treatment of each patient, first conduct "traditional Chinese medicine constitution differentiation-disease differentiation-syndrome differentiation diagnosis and treatment" and back palpation to find targeted and more therapeutically significant acupoints, and then correspondingly administer the five-color traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention. Administer the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the corresponding color at the corresponding acupoints, and use the five-color traditional Chinese medicine compositions in combination. The acupoints selected for each person's treatment are different, highlighting the advantages of individualized treatment in traditional Chinese medicine. Superimposing the use of the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention in traditional Du moxibustion therapy further highlights the synergistic efficacy of Du moxibustion and traditional Chinese medicine.
