Chinese Suppress Acupuncture Discoveries

Professor Yingqing Zhang. Zang's discoveries would make acupuncture too simple and if everybody could do it, there would be no need for acupuncturists and there would be less work for doctors.

Twenty five hundred years ago, ancient Chinese physicians began to note that when a person is ill that there are certain corresponding points elsewhere on the body that were also sore and tender.

By rubbing this points they were amazed that it stimulated healing. Soon they learned that inserting needles into these points was just as effective but less work and the art of acupuncture was born.

The Aztec and Mayan civilizations also noticed this effect and to this day their shamans and even common folk have learned to use a limited yet effective form of acupressure called "sobando".

Not much is known about Professor Yingqing Zhang's life. He was born in 1947. We know that he worked in medicine in Inner Mongolia during the Cultural Revolution. He eventually became a professor at Shandong University in China.

While alive he gained fame for his work. He received recognition from President Bill Clinton. Jian Zemin, President and Wen Jiabao Vice Premier of China both personally visited with Prof. Zhang for diagnosis and treatment.

He won first prize at the Paris International Fair of Inventions for inventing the electroeciwograph, a diagnostic tool based upon his discoveries. With such fame his enemies dared not work in the open.

His cause of death is unknown and it is unknown when or where he died. It is assumed he died in 2004 in Shandong, PRC. Upon his death, his department was shut down and his life's works including all textbooks and over a million original case studies were destroyed.

What is it that the Chinese medical establishment wants to destroy and cover up?

Re: Chinese Suppress Acupuncture Discoveries
Hi!

With a quick look I could not find anything here to consider scandalous. The idea of microacupuncture systems, which is another way to talk about what was presented here in another is a completely normal and usual part of chinese medicine - the use of 2nd metacarpal being one of the most usual of them. These systems go hand in hand with different reflexoflogy areas. In practice you cant miss the fact that the functions of many acupuncture points can be derived directly from what is suggested in these links. However the whole is more wonderful than is presented here - you can also "flip" the bone of your choice around or use whole limb as the reflex area to reflect the whole, flip it any which way wan't etc. It really comes down to the use of intention among other things. Also this means you have several differing reflex areas on top of each other that have energetic priority, and they supply energy in direction of that priority.

Furthermore, there is a difference in which bone you use, as different meridians occupy different aspects of the bones and they have different pathways. This means you wan't to use a point which combines a proper "painful spot", on a meridian that is connected to possibly dysfunctional intestine and the harmed area. That in a nushell is what chinese medicine is about, and let me tell you, as simple as it may sound, the road is long one to simplicity ;-)

There is much more to these systems, genetic engineering is adressing the smallest unit of the whole, we do with bigger systems: ear, eye, the face, feet, bones, limbs, meridians etc etc etc

There definitely is merit to self treatment, but I see nothing suppressed here, many self help books have outlined these ideas and chinese medicine professional in actuality applies these ideas everyday and much more. There is also great wisdom to the depth and years we spend studying these things from many perspectives - I feel it is the way to really discover "again" the simplicity. I could go on about this, but suffice to say: probably almost everyone here has spent a considerable amount of time studying something - finding that the more you learn, the less you feel you really know. I do encourage people to self help and there are wonderful ideas presented in this threads case, but do not in any way feel that it is fair to say chinese medicine professionals could be made obsolete with these ideas - it would be like saying: I can land a jet 9 times out of ten in Flight Simulator, can I fly your jet ;-)

I did not go an look into this but how can one say that there is not some kind of repression going on when a man's whole life time of work is destroyed instead of being reviewed? or at least taken into custody by his family?

Good call Arrowwind. Indeed there is foul play concerning the circumstances of his departure etc. I definitely was not clear myself: I see no information worth suppressing there concerning chinese medicine. What I kind of gather is, that there must be something completely different there, possibly the stuff relating to genetic engineering could lead to something important and worth money. What information is presented in the websites and the videos about the theory and practice is normal in relation to chinese medicine and does not explain in itself any need for suppression, as that stuff is out in the open and touched upon by many sources from all over the world - not at all an exclusive work by chinese. I guess that is what I was trying to say.

Again: good call Arrowwind, my bad.
