Abstract:
Cerebral palsy in children is a motor developmental disorder caused by non-progressive brain damage occurring prenatally,perinatally,or postnatally,with the spastic type being the most common clinical manifestation.This article systematically introduces Qin Min's academic philosophy in treating spastic cerebral palsy using Lingnan Flying Needle Therapy based on the Inner Canon's theory of"maintaining patency of qi and meridians".It elaborates on the core pathogenesis of"deficiency and stagnation of qi and meridians,leading to malnourishment of tendons and vessels"and the treatment approach of"regulating the conception vessel and governor vessel to unblock qi and meridians".By employing characteristic needling techniques such as Lingnan scalp acupuncture and Lingnan abdominal-back acupuncture,the therapy aims to activate yang qi,regulate and unblock qi and meridians,thereby achieving the goals of nourishing the spirit,softening tendons,and balancing yin and yang,with demonstrated favorable clinical efficacy.
