The influence of the four-function acupoint model on the head

The four-function acupoint model for the head is a teaching model specially designed for the teaching and clinical training of traditional Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion, with a focus on demonstrating the meridians and acupoint distribution in the head.

This model integrates four major functions: anatomy, meridians, acupoints and functional teaching, enabling learners to clearly understand the locations, names of the main acupoints on the head and their corresponding relationships with nerves and blood vessels. Through intuitive three-dimensional display, students can better master the accurate positioning and acupuncture depth of commonly used acupoints on the head such as Baihui, Taiyang, Fengchi, etc., thereby improving the standardization and safety of acupuncture operations.

In teaching, this model is not only used for the explanation of meridian and acupoint courses, but also can be combined with clinical case analysis to illustrate the therapeutic principles of acupuncture in diseases such as headache, insomnia and facial paralysis. Its application has promoted the integration of theory and practice, enhancing the interactivity and practicality of learning.

Overall, the four-function acupoint model of the head has significant teaching influence and clinical guidance value in traditional Chinese medicine education, research and skills training.
