ABSTRACT
Emphasis on standardization development of acupuncture-moxibustion science is very important. In ancient times, the theory of Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion was in agreement consistent. Illustrated Manual of Points for Acupuncture and Moxibustion on a Bronze Statue with Acupoints (A. D. 1026) and bronze statue with acupoints (A. D. 1029) were first standard on acupoints compiled by the government. At modern times, standardization of Chinese acupuncture-moxibustion is being developed rapidly, twelve national standards have been issued including Nomenclature and Locations of Acupuncture Points and eleven standards on manipulation of acupuncture and moxibustion, and another fourteen standards on manipulation are still being developed. The organizations of standardization are established by Chinese Association of Acupuncture and Moxibustion (CAAM), and the standardization system and developing plan of acupuncture are compiled. The acupuncture standardization has put forward new questions before experimental research and clinical study of acupuncture-moxibustion, and set a still higher requirement on training qualified personnel for acupuncture standardization research.
