He Yongfei cleared his throat and said, "The concepts of acupuncture points and meridians appeared very early. They are the most fundamental things in Traditional Chinese Medicine and were recorded as early as in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine."
"The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, a famous Chinese medical classic from the fifth to first century BC, pointed out that 'each acupuncture point has a name' and recorded the names of 160 acupuncture points."
"Tao Te Ching" and "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature" have been translated into many versions and circulated in countries around the world.
The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine is also a classic book that is widely circulated in countries around the world. It is almost a must-read for people who study Chinese medicine. Those who study Chinese medicine must read the Classic of Internal Medicine.
"B.C!"
Allens and Adams were obviously surprised. At that time, Chinese medicine already had the concepts of acupoints and meridians?
Anyone who has heard of traditional Chinese medicine knows that it is a very ancient Chinese medical science that was born very early. However, for some foreigners, most people do not have a clear idea of how early it was born.
Compared with the history of China, the history of the West is just a drop in the ocean, and the history of Western medicine is even shorter than that of Chinese medicine.
There are some people on the Internet who always complain that when Chinese people cherish history, they always talk about their glory by standing on the credit book of the past, but they don’t know that history is the foundation.
Just like Yun Heng’s speech at the Dongjiang Expo, if the foundation is the root of a building, then history is the foundation of a nation. The long history has accumulated precious cultural, spiritual and other wealth for the Chinese nation, and these are the basis for the Chinese nation to quickly surpass and move towards revival after experiencing turmoil.
Just imagine, if there were no long history and strong national cohesion, perhaps the land of China would have fallen apart a hundred years ago. For a nation, its heritage is culture.
Such a long history is even a little hard to believe for Allens and Adams.
You should know that up to now, acupoints and meridians in traditional Chinese medicine are still an important part of traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment, and the concept of acupoints and meridians was already created more than two thousand years ago.
"The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine says: 'Pain is the acupoint.'"
He Yongfei said, "There's also a saying in Traditional Chinese Medicine that pain is caused by obstruction. This means that when a person is sick, there will always be some tender points on the body surface. Diseased internal organs or certain tissues and organs may cause tenderness or abnormal sensation at a certain point on the body surface..."
"These painful spots or abnormally painful areas follow certain patterns. The acupuncture points and meridians in traditional Chinese medicine are a summary of these patterns. Through long-term practice, a complete diagnosis and treatment system has been developed."
"Buy cakes!"
Allens exclaimed, "It's incredible. Over two thousand years ago, under such circumstances, the Chinese were able to develop such a comprehensive medical system, and it's still effective today."
For a doctor, what he values more is the efficacy. On the premise of efficacy, Allens is more likely to accept the theory of traditional Chinese medicine.
At that time, there were no microscopes or instruments, but our ancestors were able to accurately mark the acupuncture points and meridians, and use them as a basis to treat diseases and save lives. In Allens's view, this is no longer simply incredible.
"The Chinese nation is truly an amazing and great nation."
Adams Road.
"Yun, what is the relationship between this acupuncture point and the patient just now?" Allens asked.
Yun Heng asked He Yongfei to sit down and explained, "Since Dr. Allens knows about acupuncture points and meridians, then look at this picture again. Some meridians and some meridians converge at certain acupuncture points..."
Yun Heng pointed to the Qimen acupoint and said, "Please look, Doctor Allens, the Qimen acupoint is the pathway that connects the inside and outside, the upper and the lower..."
Following the meridian and acupoint map, Yun Heng gave Allens a detailed introduction in relatively simple language.
"The patient's presenting symptoms are breast enlargement, but her pulse and tongue coating are normal. Based on the special features of the Qimen acupoint, enlargement is generally caused by congestion and obstruction..."
"Look at the child's breasts again. They hurt when pressed. The nipples are black and large, indicating a pathological condition. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, pain when pressed generally indicates excess, while no pain indicates deficiency. Excess indicates blood stasis..."
"Look at the color. The normal color should be light yellow. Black also indicates blood stasis. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the nipple belongs to the liver meridian..."
As he spoke, Yun Heng explained it to Allens according to the meridian map.
He Yongfei on the side listened most attentively.
Yun Heng's explanation to Allens was naturally more popular. It was even easier to understand for a Chinese medicine doctor like He Yongfei who already had a basic understanding of the theory. The attending physicians of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Xihua Hospital also listened very carefully.
Yun Heng analyzed the child's pathogenesis, condition and symptoms one by one from the aspects of symptoms, color, liver meridian, etc., and analyzed them very clearly. Although the two foreigners, Allens and Adams, did not fully understand it, they roughly understood it. In fact, they only needed to listen to the general principle.
When Allens and Adams listened patiently and tried to understand, even a little bit, it was like a door opened for both of them, an area they had never touched before.
Adams pondered.
Just as Ma Tiequan guessed, Adams did have some ideas when he came to China this time.
After witnessing the magic of traditional Chinese medicine, Adams wondered whether he could cooperate or invest in traditional Chinese medicine. If for no other reason, there were many elders in their Boston consortium who were a bit older and encountered various diseases. With traditional Chinese medicine, it would be another option.
The richer people are, the more they value their lives. If they can be guaranteed in this regard, it will be very good for the Adams family.
Just like Allens, who recommended Yun Heng, now has a much closer relationship with the Adams family. Adams also has to acknowledge Allens' favor. If it weren't for Allens and Lawrence, they would never have known Yun Heng.
Among those present, except Allens and Lawrence, Kuwata Ren actually needed to understand more clearly. After all, Xiao Baga's culture was a castrated version of Chinese culture. He only learned some superficial knowledge, but it was better than Lawrence and others.
As he listened to Yun Heng's explanation, the more fear appeared in Sang Tianren's eyes, and the more straightforward Yun Heng's explanation was, the more Yun Heng understood the disease and the higher his level was. No wonder Allens and Adams were so polite to Yun Heng.
It turned out that the person he had provoked was a very young Chinese medicine expert. Although the status of Chinese medicine in Country R was not very high, Xiao Baga still knew something about the status of a Chinese medicine expert. He was a master-level figure, and masters in any field were quite remarkable.
