陈瑾说：以前宏纲先生传授道：取穴必须准确，用左手大拇指掐住穴位，右手将针置于穴位上，让患者咳嗽一声，随着咳嗽的动作将针刺入规定的深度。等待几个穴位都针毕，稍停片刻，用右手的大拇指和食指持针，细细地摇动、进退、搓捻针具，动作像手颤抖的样子，这叫做“催气”。大约进行五到六次，感觉到针下气感紧实。接着使用泻法，如果针刺左边，用右手大拇指和食指持针，大拇指向前推，食指向后拉，将针头轻轻提起并向左转。如果有多个穴位，等待按照此方法全部旋转完毕后。仍然用右手大拇指和食指持针，接着用食指连续搓三下，这叫做“飞”。再轻轻提起并向左转，略微退针半分许，这叫做“三飞一退”。按照此法进行五到六次，感觉到针下沉紧，这是气已达极盛，再轻轻提起并向左转一到两次。如果针刺右边，则用左手大拇指和食指持针，采用右边的泻法。想要出针时，让病……
陈瑾说：从前宏纲先生传授道：凡是人有疾病，都是邪气聚集所致，虽然病患身体瘦弱，不可专门施行补法。《内经》说：“邪气所聚集的地方，正气必然虚弱。”如患赤眼等疾病，明确看见是邪热所致，可以专门施行泻法。其余各种疾病，只适宜平补平泻。必须先泻后补，这叫做先泻除邪气，后补益真气。这是先生不传的秘诀。如果有人患病，根据前面的方法进针，运用手法催气、取气，泻法完成后，再施行补法。让病患深吸一口气，随着吸气转动针具，如果针刺左边，将针头转向右边，用我的右手大拇指和食指持针，食指向前推，大拇指向后拉，仍将针深入一到二分，使真气深入肌肉之间。如果针刺右边，将针头转向左边，用我的左手大拇指和食指持针，食指向前推，大拇指向后拉，仍将针深入一到二分。如果有多个穴位，按照此法操作完毕，稍停片刻，然后用手指在针头上轻弹三下，如此三次。仍然用我的左手大拇指和食指持针，大拇指连续搓三下（这叫做“飞”），将针深进一到二分，将针头转向左边，这叫做“一进三飞”。感觉到针下沉紧，或者针下气感发热，这是气至充足了。让病患深吸一口气，随着……
Chen Jin stated: Previously, Master Honggang taught: When selecting acupoints, accuracy is essential. Use the thumb of the left hand to press on the acupoint, place the needle on the acupoint with the right hand, and instruct the patient to cough once. Insert the needle to the specified depth following the cough. After needling several acupoints, pause for a moment. Hold the needle with the thumb and index finger of the right hand, and gently shake, advance, retreat, and twirl the needle, mimicking the trembling motion of a hand; this is called "Cui Qi" (Urging the Arrival of Qi). Perform this approximately five or six times until a tight sensation of Qi is felt under the needle. Then apply the reducing method. If needling the left side, hold the needle with the thumb and index finger of the right hand, push the thumb forward and pull the index finger backward, and gently lift and rotate the needle head to the left. If multiple acupoints are involved, wait until all have been rotated according to this method. Continue holding the needle with the thumb and index finger of the right hand, then use the index finger to rub three times consecutively; this is called "Fei" (Flying). Gently lift and rotate to the left again, withdrawing the needle slightly by about half a cun; this is called "San Fei Yi Tui" (Three Flies One Withdrawal). Proceed according to this method for five or six times; when a sinking and tight sensation is felt under the needle, it indicates that Qi has reached its peak. Lift and rotate to the left one or two more times. If needling the right side, hold the needle with the thumb and index finger of the left hand, applying the reducing method for the right side. When preparing to withdraw the needle, instruct the patient...
Chen Jin stated: Formerly, Master Honggang taught: Whenever a person suffers from disease, it is due to the gathering of pathogenic factors. Even if the patient is emaciated and weak, one should not exclusively employ tonifying methods. The *Classic* states: "Where pathogenic factors gather, the healthy Qi must be deficient." For conditions such as red eyes, where it is clearly evident that they are caused by pathogenic heat, one may exclusively employ the reducing method. For other diseases, only balanced tonification and reduction are suitable. One must reduce first and then tonify; this is called first eliminating the pathogenic factors and then tonifying the true Qi. This is the master's secret teaching. If a person is ill, after inserting the needle according to the previous methods and using manual techniques to urge and obtain Qi, once the reducing method is completed, proceed with the tonifying method. Instruct the patient to take a deep breath in. As they inhale, rotate the needle. If needling the left side, turn the needle head to the right. Hold the needle with the thumb and index finger of the right hand, push the index finger forward and the thumb backward, and still insert the needle deeper by one or two fen, so that the true Qi penetrates deeply into the muscle layers. If needling the right side, turn the needle head to the left. Hold the needle with the thumb and index finger of the left hand, push the index finger forward and the thumb backward, and still insert the needle deeper by one or two fen. If multiple acupoints are involved, perform these steps for each, then pause for a moment. Subsequently, lightly tap the top of the needle three times with a finger, repeating this three times. Still holding the needle with the thumb and index finger of the left hand, rub the thumb three times consecutively (this is called "Fei"), insert the needle deeper by one or two fen, and turn the needle head to the left; this is called "Yi Jin San Fei" (One Advance Three Flies). When a sinking and tight sensation is felt under the needle, or the Qi feels warm, it indicates that Qi has arrived sufficiently. Instruct the patient to take a deep breath in, and as they inhale...
