Abstract:
The Shanghai-style pediatric Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)school,a renowned academic school of pediatric Tuina in China,was founded by Professor JIN Yicheng,a mentor of the National Senior Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)Experts'Clinical Experience Inheritance Class and a distinguished TCM practitioner in Shanghai.This academic school has now been perpetuated through four generations.Prof.JIN Yicheng,a pioneering leader in modern China's pediatric Tuina,has dedicated sixty years to medical practice with unwavering benevolence and adherence to"principled innovation".While delving into traditional and ancient teachings,he has also embraced contemporary advancements.Building upon the essence of traditional pediatric Tuina,he integrated distinctive techniques from various Tuina schools,including the Yi Zhi Chan Tuina school,rolling manipulation Tuina school,and Neigong Tuina school.He also assimilated the quintessence of historical pediatric Tuina literature,the experience of modern Shanghai-based pediatric Tuina masters,and folk techniques while incorporating his years of clinical insights.This synthesis finally led to the formulation of the academic thought of"reinforcing healthy Qi and unblocking regulation"in Shanghai-style pediatric Tuina that guides clinical practice.Specifically,he comprehensively applies techniques such as"unblocking regulation of Zang-Fu organs","unblocking regulation of the four seas","unblocking regulation of the water and fire",and"unblocking regulation of the back"to the prevention and treatment of pediatric diseases across internal medicine,external medicine,orthopedics,and otolaryngology,which has significantly enhanced clinical efficacy and expanded the applicable age range and scope of Tuina for pediatric health issues,more aligning with the characteristics of children and adolescents'health challenges and current clinical demands,and paving a new way in preserving and developing traditional pediatric Tuina.
