Abstract
    Objective: To clarify the effective difference of acupuncture manipulation between twirling reinforcing and reducing manipulation and discuss whether it was the effective difference between reinforcing and reducing methods.Methods: The influence on skin temperature of epigastrium was observed with infrared thermogram 0,10,20,30 minutes after needling Hegu with different acupuncture manipulation in healthy persons.Results: Different manipulations had effective difference in different degrees. And the influence of Shi's method was the most obvious on skin temperature.Conelusion: 1) Reinforcing and reducing methods can produce different effects. 2) The effects of reinforcing reducing manipulation are responsible for the ascending and descending change of skin temperature due to different manipulations. The reinforcing effective of Shi's method is more obvious than others'. 3) Using reducing and reinforcing methods is necessary.
