Abstract:
The internationalization of Chinese acupuncture-moxibustion is inevitably accompanied by the localization of acupuncture-moxibustion. The localization of acupuncture-moxibustion will inevitably promote the diversified development of acupuncture-moxibustion technique and theory, which fully demonstrates the openness of modern acupuncture-moxibustion. In this study, the characteristics of localization of Chinese acupuncture-moxibustion in the United States are explored and studied from the following aspects: legal adjustment, technical adjustment, educational adjustment, service adjustment and theoretical adjustment.
