Western doctors use knives, Chinese doctors use needles. However, Chinese medicine combined with Western medical philosophy, based on the traditional acupuncture, also invented its own “scalpel” – needle knife. Although acupuncture has now been carried out, it is still relatively new to people compared to acupuncture, which has been used for thousands of years. Although the knife, but does not leave a scar Needle knife, at first glance, is a needle and a knife, give people a little scary feeling, some people are also worried that it will be like the Western medical scalpel, leaving an ugly scar. However, people who have received treatment say that the needle knife is not scary. The general diameter of acupuncture needles are mostly between 0.22 to 0.45 mm, while the diameter of the needle body of the needle knife is mostly between 0.4 to 0.8 mm, the needle blade is mostly below 0.8 mm. 1 mm or less of the eye of the needle does not leave a scar, although the size of the needle knife is a little thicker than acupuncture, but also below 1 mm in diameter, do not have to worry about leaving a scar. When it comes to acupuncture, it is known to stimulate acupuncture points, while the scalpel is used to cut human tissue, said Zhou Jianbin, the invention of the needle knife is based on these two considerations. Back pain, facial paralysis, cervical spondylosis and other diseases in the early stage, acupuncture has a good mediation and treatment effect, but in the late stage, in the organic pathogenic stage, chronic injury and so on will cause soft tissue hyperplasia adhesion, compression, stimulation of blood vessels and nerves, then simply stimulate the acupuncture points, the effect is very little. In addition to stimulating the acupuncture points, acupuncture also has the same effect as a scalpel to loosen and separate the acupuncture points, so that the physician can achieve the purpose of combined Chinese and Western medicine treatment through fine local manipulation. Positioning available X-ray navigation Acupuncture zapping which is based on traditional acupuncture points and doctor’s experience, acupuncture knife can not only follow the acupuncture point atlas, but also be able to combine with modern advanced imaging technology to accurately target the affected area. For example, for the treatment of pain caused by herniated lumbar discs that office workers are prone to, acupuncture treatment is very powerful. This pain is caused by the nucleus pulposus protruding and compressing the nerve roots after the rupture of the fibrous ring, and can be treated with acupuncture under X-ray navigation to relieve the pain by cutting and peeling, loosening adhesions, and relieving the compression and irritation of the dural sac and nerve roots.
