补法和泻法在指下操作分明,金针一刺便显现出良医的本色。
驼背者能立刻挺直,患者能起身,从此名声远扬四海皆知。
(曲池穴用补法,人中穴用泻法;风池穴用补法,绝骨穴用泻法)
中风导致失语是最难治疗的,头顶发际处的穴位也可以施用。
在百会穴中明确运用补泻手法,患者能立即苏醒,免除灾难危险。
顶门:即囟会穴。位于上星穴后一寸。禁止针刺,可灸七壮,若针刺则用泻法。
百会:位于头顶中央旋毛处,取两眉间印堂穴至发际折中的位置即是此穴。进针约一分深。治疗中风,先补后泻,多补少泻。可灸七壮,不可用补法(此处原文“无补”结合上下文“先补后泻...多补少泻”及常规针灸逻辑,通常指特定情况或笔误,但依原文直译为不可补,然前文已言先补,此处存疑,按字面翻译为“不可补”,但需注意临床常为先补后泻。鉴于任务要求忠实原文,故译为“不可补”,但在实际中医语境中,百会治中风多为升阳举陷,常需补法。此处严格按原文“无补”翻译)。*注:原文此处逻辑有矛盾,“先补后泻”与“无补”冲突,通常古籍传抄有误,但作为翻译需忠实原文。*
中风导致口眼歪斜,必须治疗地仓穴并连及颊车穴。
左侧病变泻右侧,右侧病变泻左侧,这是遵循师传的言语,不要出差错。
地仓:位于口角旁直对瞳孔下方,进针一分深。
颊车:位于耳垂下三分处,沿皮向下透刺地仓穴一寸半,灸十四壮(二七壮)。
头风病伴有呕吐、眼睛昏花,穴位选在神庭穴,针刺不会出错。
小儿惊风都可以治疗,在印堂穴针刺并加用艾灸。
神庭:位于鼻根直上入发际五分处。进针三寸(注:此处原文“针三寸”极可能为“针三分”之误,因神庭穴浅表,三寸过深,但依原文翻译),先补后泻,泻多补少。
印堂:位于两眉之间凹陷处。进针一分深,沿皮先透刺左侧攒竹穴,完成补泻后转归原穴;退针后再透刺右侧攒竹穴,根据上述方法补泻。急症宜补,此为通神之穴。
头风病无论是偏头痛还是正头痛都最难治疗,丝竹空穴的金针也可以施用。
更要沿皮透刺率谷穴,一针同时作用于两个穴位,世间稀有。
丝竹空:位于眉尾入发际凹陷处,沿皮向后透刺。
率谷:位于耳尖上一寸处。进针三分,灸七壮。张口时针刺,疼痛时用泻法,眩晕时用补法。
Bian Que bestowed upon me the *Yulong Ge* (Song of the Jade Dragon), and a single trial of the *Yulong Ge* can cure chronic, intractable diseases.
The Song of the Jade Dragon is rarely obtained in the world; I have studied it meticulously, ensuring my hand techniques are flawless.
I now chant this *Yulong Jue* (Secret Formula of the Jade Dragon), which covers one hundred and twenty acupoints.
The manipulation of needles is unparalleled in its wonder; I only fear that contemporary practitioners may deviate from the standard.
Tonification (Bu) and sedation (Xie) are clearly applied under the fingers; with a single insertion of the golden needle, a good physician is revealed.
The stooped can stand upright immediately, the patient can rise, and thus fame spreads across lakes and seas.
(Tonify Quchi LI11, sedate Renzhong GV26; Tonify Fengchi GB20, sedate Jiegu GB39)
Stroke-induced aphasia is the most difficult to treat, but points at the vertex hairline can also be utilized.
Clearly apply tonification and sedation at Baihui GV20, allowing for immediate awakening and avoiding disaster and danger.
Dingmen (Vertex Gate): This is Xinhui EX-HN18. It is located one cun posterior to Shangxing GV23. Needling is prohibited; moxibustion of seven moxa cones is indicated. If needled, use the sedation method.
Baihui GV20: Located in the center of the vertex where the hair whorl is found. To locate it, measure the midpoint between Yintang EX-HN3 (between the eyebrows) and the anterior hairline. Insert the needle approximately one fen deep. For stroke, apply tonification first followed by sedation, with more tonification and less sedation. Moxibustion of seven cones is indicated; no tonification should be used (Note: Text says "no tonification", though previous sentence suggests tonification).
Stroke causing deviation of the mouth and eye must be treated by connecting Dicang ST4 and Jiache ST6.
Sedate the right side for left-sided symptoms, and sedate the left side for right-sided symptoms, following the master's words, do not err.
Dicang ST4: Located directly below the pupil, adjacent to the corner of the mouth. Insert the needle one fen deep.
Jiache ST6: Located three fen below the earlobe. Needle along the skin, penetrating downward to Dicang ST4 for one and a half cun. Apply fourteen moxa cones (two sets of seven).
Headwind (Toufeng) accompanied by vomiting and blurred vision: The point is Shenting GV24; needling here will not fail.
Pediatric convulsions can all be treated; insert the needle into Yintang EX-HN3 and add moxibustion.
Shenting GV24: Located five fen above the anterior hairline, directly above the nose tip. Insert the needle three cun (Note: Likely a textual error for three fen, as three cun is excessively deep for this location); apply tonification first followed by sedation, with more sedation and less tonification.
Yintang EX-HN3: Located in the depression between the two eyebrows. Insert the needle one fen deep. Penetrate laterally along the skin to Zanzhu BL2 on the left first; after completing tonification and sedation, return to the original point; then withdraw and penetrate to Zanzhu BL2 on the right, applying tonification and sedation according to the aforementioned method. For acute conditions, use tonification; this is an acupoint that connects to the Spirit (Shen).
Headwind, whether lateral or central, is the most difficult to treat; the golden needle at Sizhukong TE23 can also be applied.
Furthermore, penetrate along the skin to Lvgu GB8; one needle treating two acupoints is rare in the world.
Sizhukong TE23: Located in the depression at the posterior end of the eyebrow entering the hairline. Needle along the skin, penetrating backward.
Lvgu GB8: Located one cun above the apex of the ear. Insert the needle three fen, apply seven moxa cones. Open the mouth when needling. Use sedation for pain, and tonification for vertigo/dizziness.
