Abstract:
To summarise clinical experience of Professor FANG Min in treating chronic spinal disease with tuina therapy based on the principle of "focusing on sinews and fine-regulating bones". It is believed that the key mechanism of chronic spinal disease lies in the imbalance of sinews and bones， with sinews being the first， accordingly， the basic treatment principle of "focusing on sinews and fine-regulating bones" is put forward. Combining with the modern anatomical science and the theory of traditional Chinese medicine acupoints and meridians， the treatment of chronic spinal disease adopts the principles of "causing instability in the first， making adjustments in the reverse direction， then recovering and standing up" and "layering tuina， and combining points， lines and surfaces organically"， which can often achieve a more satisfactory therapeutic effect.
