ABSTRACT
The relationship between acupuncture theory and clinical practice is getting problematic with the development of acupuncture clinical practice. In the paper, in view of the theoretic study itself, the reasons and the approaches to the recognition are explored. The characteristics of acupuncture therapeutic methods include the site for application and the technique method in generally. Their theoretical construction is relatively limited in the system category of acupuncture. The sites of acupuncture application are various, including vessels, the muscle regions of meridians, the intersection of skin and muscle, corresponding points and others. All of those lead to the variety of acupuncture in compliance with the acupuncture technique methods. The nearby action of acupoint is also the basic function of acupuncture stimulation, which is much related with the variety of acupuncture. Hence, it is believed that the full-dimensional recognition of acupoints and the relevant theories of meridians is the foundation to ensure their significance in clinical guidance and the theoretic supports in the innovative methods.
