Needle knife diagnosis and treatment for ankylosing spondylitis at middle and advanced stage based on the theory of meridian tendons
This study explores the diagnosis and treatment of needle knife therapy for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) at middle and advanced stage based on the theory of meridian tendons
from a holistic perspective and syndrome differentiation. The treatment strategy includes "harmonizing
yin
and
yang
" to address root causes and "tendons-based release" to harmonize
qi
and blood
with the "tendons nodule points" as the core acupoint selection criterion. Based on this approach
the study systematically elaborates on two needle knife methods for AS: "governor vessel bone-piercing technique" and "below-the-umbilicus release technique"
covering indications
acupoint location
and procedures. Clinical case examples are provided to enrich needle knife therapy guided by the theory of meridian tendons
offering insights for clinical and research work on AS.
