Abstract
|
Master of traditional Chinese medicine WANG Qi proposed the nine constitution method. The formation of a balanced constitution cannot be separated from the balance of yin and yang in the body,while the eight biased constitutions have different states of yin and yang imbalance. “Yang transforming qi and yin constituting the body” constitutes the basic form of human life. In which,“Yang transforming qi” promotes the physiological functions of the human body and affects “Yin constituting the body”,leading to the formation of different constitution types. Thus,correcting yin-yang bias and restoring yin-yang balance is the key to constitutional conditioning. The yang-supporting method takes yang qi as the foundation of human life and emphasizes achieving yin-yang balance by regulating yang qi. This article will explore the formation mechanism of different biased constitutions based on the theory of “Yang transforming qi and yin constituting the body”,as well as the ideas and methods of using the yang-supporting method to regulate constitutions,providing new clinical ideas for constitutional conditioning. |
