Abstract:
Taking acupuncture-moxibustion for periarthritis of shoulder as an example, the characteristics of contemporary acupuncture-moxibustion school are analyzed in terms of the theories of syndrome treatment, acupoint selection, needle devices and acupuncture techniques, as well as the encountered questions during its development; and the exploratory suggestions are proposed. The contemporary acupuncture-moxibustion school should be developed in three aspects, i.e. constructing data platform, expanding inheritance model and formulating acupuncture-moxibustion standard.
