ABSTRACT
The innovated needling methods of "warm reinforcing technique" and "cold reducing technique" by professor ZHENG Kui-shan was analyzed. The discussion on these methods was done in comparison with the techniques of "setting the mountain on fire" and "penetrating the heaven coolness". The innovations and the clinical application advantages were explored. ZHENG's "warm reinforcing technique" and "cold reducing technique" were based on the techniques of setting the mountain on fire" and "penetrating the heaven coolness". These techniques were the complex of the simple techniques of reinforcing and reducing, such as rotating, lifting and thrusting, assistant reinforcing and reducing, as well as reinforcing and reducing by keeping the acupoint open or not. Of those different techniques, reinforcing and reducing by rotating needling and the assistant method are recommended by prof. ZHENG and they are the characteristics of ZHENG's needling technique. Compared with the techniques of "setting the mountain on fire" and "penetrating the heaven coolness", "warm reinforcing technique" and "cold reducing technique" are simple in operation and widely applied in clinical practice. Moreover, these techniques have the same efficacy as the techniques of "setting the mountain on fire" and "penetrating the heaven coolness".
