The Course is designed because:
Diabetes is a common chronic disease worldwide. Long-term high blood sugar can lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, and nerve damage. The incidence of diabetes is rapidly increasing globally, especially in developed countries and regions. In the United States, the incidence and prevalence of diabetes are rising, placing a heavy burden on patients and their families. Many people hope to alleviate diabetes through non-pharmacological therapies. As a traditional natural therapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is gaining global attention and recognition due to its unique principles and fewer side effects. TCM emphasizes overall balance and holistic treatment, focusing on regulating internal body balance and improving physical condition to prevent and treat diseases.
Tuina needle acupoint massage is an ancient TCM therapy. By massaging and stimulating specific acupoints, it can regulate the flow of qi and blood in the body, improve endocrine function, help control blood sugar levels, and alleviate diabetes symptoms. This method is simple and easy to perform, allowing patients to operate it at home, making it an effective complementary treatment for diabetes.
This course will combine TCM theory with practical operations, providing detailed explanations on how acupoints can help alleviate diabetes symptoms, how to select acupoints, and how to use the Tai Chi Tuina needle tool for massage. It will help diabetes patients master a scientific, safe, and effective method of self-care. The course content is rich, the operations are simple, and it is easy to learn, making it suitable for learners of different ages and backgrounds.
Though it contains the character "needle," Tai Chi Pestle Needle differs from acupuncture. In Tai Chi Pestle Needle, the needle does not penetrate the skin or muscles, hence no pain is involved. Additionally, there are no concerns about cross-infection. It combines the advantages of acupuncture and massage.
The tools used in Tai Chi Pestle Needle are simple, the acupoints are few, and the operation is easy. It is highly suitable for wide application and can be effectively utilized in home healthcare. With some training, individuals can perform simple Pestle Needle at home.
