係楊維傑醫師特別為《針灸五輸穴應用》發行三十年所改寫增訂之升級本,此書三十年前即被認為係好書而暢銷長銷,新書內容更為豐富實用,由於此類專書市面極少,因此全書幾乎悉為楊維傑醫師之心得及創見,包括五輸穴應用之時間觀、空間觀、象數觀、同氣相求、通透調扶…等,皆足以顛覆一般人對五輸穴應用之認識,最主要的是深具臨床效果。若說《董氏奇穴講座—穴位學及治療學》是對太極、全息、體應、經絡、臟腑別通…的發揮與注釋,那麼本書則是對五行、象數、易理的深入闡微與發揮。 Dr Young Wei Chieh brings students and practitioners a highly useful and clinically insightful text dealing with the five transport points, the special acupoints found on each of the twelve channels distal to the elbows or knees. Known as the jing-well points, ying-spring points, shu-stream points, jing-river points, and he-sea points, these five types of points all have special characteristics related to the five phases, and thus they are sometimes called the five phases points. The ancients used analogies of these points to describe the movement and strength of qi and blood, and thus each of the points has a unique function. The text covers, in 28 chapters, their significance, characteristics, locations, tenets and principles, applications, treatments, point combination methods, restriction-based treatment methods, mother-child point selection, yuan-source points, using transport points as local points, spatial correspondences, temporal correspondences, seasonal and hourly point selection, zi wu liu zhu closed/open points, visceral correspondences, qi affinity point selection, I Ching hexagram point selection, acupoint bleeding, taiji correspondences, connecting channel point selection, combinatory principles and methods, notes from Dr. Young’s personal experience, and a synthesis of point applications.
