¡¸Nei Jing(Ò®Ìè)¡¹first defined the interrelationship of the true and the false between evil factor affecting health(Þ÷Ѩ) and vital essence energy(ïñѨ). According to ¡¸Nei Jing(Ò®Ìè) ¡¹, the above interrelationship is explained as ¡¯If
state of
evil domination is considered as sthenia-syndrome(Þ÷ѨàüöÎãù), if the consumption of healthy energy is considered as asthenia-syndrome(ïñѨ÷¬öÎúÈ).¡¯¡¸Nei Jing(Ò®Ìè)¡¹proposed major features of the medical
treatment by regluate the vatal energy of asthenia and sthenia, treat the sthenia-syndrome by purgation, and treat the asthenia-syndrome by therapy of invigoration(ðàÐìѨñýúÈãù, ãùöÎÞáñý, úÈöÎÜÍñý).¡¯The above interrelationship was interpreted
as
treat
the asthenia-syndrome of child organ by invigorating the moter organ(úÈíºÜÍÐìÙ½)¡¯ in the 69th of ¡¸The Classic on Difficulty¡¹(ÑñÌè ë»ä¨ÎúÑñ). Go-Mu(ÍÔÙë) of Myung-dynasty describe therapy for invigoration and purgation of
itself-meridian(í»Ìè ÜÍÞáÛö), which locating acupuncture points according to the Therory of Five Element in the five shu points of itself-meridian(í»Ìè çé úë), based on the generation in the ¡¸A Synthetical Book of Acupuncture and
Moxibustion(öÜ϶ö©çÈ)¡¹. Sae-hyun Jang(íåá¦úç) further extended locating acupuncture points of the five shu points to the
other-meridian in the ¡¸Gyeo Jung Do Ju Nan Gyung(ÎèïáÓññÉÑñÌè)¡¹Sa-Ahm¡¯s 5 Element Acupuncture Method(ÞìäÜçéú¼öÝÛö) was originated in 1644, the middle of the Yi-dynasty. It linked the reinforcing and reducing in acupuncture therapy
which
incorporated the asthenia-syndrome and sthenia-syndrome of the hollow organs, based on principle of the Yin Yang 5 Element Theory(ëäåÕçéú¼ùÊàã), not only to the generation in the 5 element(ßÓßæμͧ) but also to the restriction in the 5
element(ßÓкμͧ). Furthermore it was devised for the medical treatment by combining therapy for invigoration and purgation of itself-meridian(í»Ìè ÜÍÞáÛö) with that of the other meridian.
Even though many original forms(ïáû¡) of the therapy for invigoration and purgation of the Yin Yang 5 Element Theory comply with the principle of the generation and the restriction based on the principle of the Yin Yang 5 Element Theory
are
abailable, forms(ܨû¡) are also recognized by examining the nature of the Sa-Ahm¡¯s 5 Element Acupuncture Method(ÞìäÜçéú¼öÝÛö). For this reason, it is very difficult to understand the Sa-Ahm¡¯s 5 Element Acupuncture
Method(ÞìäÜçéú¼öÝÛö)
thoroughly. Therefore, those variational forms are obstacles for the beginners to study the Sa-Ahm¡¯s 5 Element Acupuncture Method.
IN order to understand the principle of the practical clinical application of the Sa-Ahm¡¯s 5 Element Acupuncture Method, this study investigate which principle was based on the variations of the locating acupuncture points¡¯ method for
the
acupuncture prescription.
