ABSTRACT
Based on the survey on Anhui indigenous medicine and the protection for the traditional Chinese medicine knowledge, we made an analysis and summary for the survey result of Anhui indigenous and special acupuncture techniques in terms of area distribution, types, diseases of treatment, etc. The result shows that though acupuncture and moxibustion are widely applied for all kinds of diseases in most areas of Anhui grassroots regions, they mainly concentrat in major cities like Hefei, Wuhu, Anqing, etc. The techniques are mainly used in orthopedics department and neurology department. They have weighted too much on needling skills, but moxibustion and other special techniques are not paid attention to. We propose that special acupuncture-moxibustion techniques should be promoted, and the relevant training for grassroots medical workers should be developed so as to further enhance their ability to serve grassroots people as well as inherit and innovate the techniques.
