Eight-gang syndrome differentiation is of great significance in the treatment of acupuncture and moxibustion. It determines whether acupuncture is suitable for various diseases, as well as the choice of laxative techniques. First of all, yin and yang are the core of the eight-gang dialectic. For the situation where yin is prosperous and yang is deficient, the yang should be supplemented first, and then the yin should be purified to reconcile; For the situation of yin deficiency and yang prosperity, the yin should be supplemented first, and then the yang should be poured out to reconcile. Generally speaking, the yang syndrome is mostly manifested as real heat, so it is advisable to use acupuncture and laxative method, shallow puncture without leaving needles, and the needle should be fast; The yin syndrome is mostly manifested as deficiency and cold, so it is advisable to use moxibustion or tonic methods, deep puncture and appropriate needles, and slow needles. In addition, the surface and the inside are also an important aspect of the eight-outline dialectic. The appearance should be shallowly punctured to evacuate the evil spirit; It is advisable to stay deep for a long time to reconcile qi and blood. Shallow spines should be in the skin, while deep spurs should be in the muscles and bones. For the virtual and real aspects, it is advisable to use the supplement method or moxibustion method for the false evidence, and the acupuncture method or more acupuncture and less moxibustion should be used for the empirical evidence. In terms of cold and heat, it is advisable to use the method of acupuncture and moxibustion to warm the yang and dispel the cold; For heat syndrome, it is advisable to stab shallowly, without moxibustion or stinging and bloodletting to clear away heat and relieve fire. For the mixed syndrome of cold and heat, the truth of cold and heat should be distinguished, and the corresponding techniques should be adopted**. In short, in acupuncture, we should be guided by the eight outlines of syndrome differentiation, and flexibly use laxative techniques according to the factors of yin and yang, appearance and interior, deficiency and reality, cold and heat, etc., so as to achieve the best effect.
All physiological activities of the human body, whether it is daily digestion, circulation, or complex thinking and movement, are inseparable from the synergy of internal organs and external meridians. Although the manifestations of diseases are ever-changing, their root causes can be attributed to the dysfunction of the internal organs and meridians. Different organs and meridians have their own unique physiological functions in the human body, so when they have problems, the pathological changes caused by them also have their own unique regularity. In the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine, we can grasp and study these pathogenesis laws in depth, and through careful analysis and induction, we can gain in-depth insight into the internal mechanism of the disease, and clarify the location and nature of the disease. This in-depth analysis and understanding is essential for the correct development of the best program. This is exactly what Yu Jiayan emphasized: "Doctors don't know the meridians of the viscera, and they make mistakes when they open their mouths." This sentence fully illustrates the core guiding role of viscera and meridian theory in the clinical syndrome differentiation and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine. For acupuncture**, the significance of the viscera and meridian theory is more far-reaching. Acupuncture is a kind of acupuncture that adjusts the flow of human qi and blood by stimulating specific acupuncture points, and its operation must be accurate and in place, and the theoretical understanding of the viscera and meridians directly determines the effectiveness and safety of the body. Therefore, acupuncturists must deeply grasp the theoretical knowledge of viscera and meridians, and flexibly apply them to clinical practice.
