The correct way to hold the needle is: hold the handle of the needle with the right hand, fix the end of the handle to the hypothenar position of the palm with the ring finger and the little finger, and expose the end of the handle by 1 to 1.5 centimeters of the palm, then hold the handle with the middle finger and thumb, and press the index finger to press the needle handle. in the middle of the needle handle. In this way, the elasticity of the wrist can be fully and flexibly used.
Technique: The technique of plum blossom acupuncture requires the use of wrist force to stab. When puncturing, the needle should be dropped steadily and the tip of the needle should be in vertical contact with the skin; the needle should be raised quickly, making a short and crisp "jump" sound. The power of this percussion is the elasticity of the wrist. When stabbing, it must be stabbed and flat, but not slow, pressing, oblique, and dragging. The frequency should not be too fast or too slow, generally beating 70-90 times per minute. There are three types of stimulus intensity:
Light: The wrist strength is light, and the impulse is small; tap to the extent that the local skin is slightly flushed.
Heavy: The wrist is strong and the impulse is strong; the local skin is obviously red when tapped, and there may be slight bleeding.
Medium: between light and heavy; local flushing, papules, but no bleeding.
