摘要

This paper introduces the clinical experience of Professor AN Junming in treating spinal cord injury (SCI) with FANG’s scalp acupuncture plus body acupuncture. Professor AN Junming holds that the key pathogenesis of SCI should be “deficient kidney and cold Governor Vessel”, and the treatment should target the axis of “brain-Governor Vessel-kidney-Conception Vessel”. SCI will definitely cause damage to the Governor Vessel and the counterflow of Qi and blood. Hence, treating SCI with acupuncture-moxibustion should unblock the Governor Vessel and strengthen Yang. The kidney and Governor Vessel mutually benefit and support each other. After SCI, kidney essence is weakened and damaged, and kidney Yang is deficient. Thus, warming and tonifying kidney Yang should be the key to the treatment. Further, as the Governor Vessel is injured, the disease of Yang will gradually affect Yin, and the Conception Vessel will consequently get involved over time. Therefore, in the treatment, points from the Conception and Governor Vessels should be selected simultaneously to “treat Yang from Yin” and balance Yin and Yang. Based on the above considerations, Professor AN Junming usually treats SCI with FANG’s scalp acupuncture plus body acupuncture to unblock the Conception and Governor Vessels, supplement kidney and marrow, harmonize Qi and blood, and balance Yin and Yang, providing novel ideas and methods for clinical treatment.
