ABSTRACT

In recent years, the incidence of mental disorders has been increasing, and related diseases such as insomnia, anxiety, depression, and stroke have consistently accounted for a high proportion. Conventional clinical treatment often involves oral medication to treat such diseases, but long-term drug use not only increases the liver and kidney metabolic burden, liver and kidney toxicity, but may even result in adverse situations such as drug resistance and withdrawal reactions. Zhi Shen acupuncture therapy can not only achieve significant therapeutic effects but also reduce the side effects of oral medication when treating such diseases. This article reviews the literature on Zhi Shen acupuncture therapy for mental disorders in recent years, summarizes the characteristics of the acupuncture techniques and the key points of acupoint selection, and aims to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.
