General standards involved in the length and width of the measurement are required to use the international unit system, but the human body is very different, The method uses the absolute standard value to describe the acupoints of acupuncture and moxibustion, and only through the method of equal parts of the amount of bone fracture method to describe the acupoints, Applicable to all groups and all individuals. 1987 World Health Organization in Seoul, South Korea held an international conference to determine the use of "inch" as Acupuncture points standard measurement unit. Therefore, the standard of the acupoints using this unit of measurement. Code of Practice for Acupuncture and Moxibustion Part 19. wrist ankle

1 Scope

China's national standardised manipulation for wrist-ankle acupuncture. It is Part 19 of GB/T 21709 and specifies the terms and definitions, the instruments, the operating procedure, the indications, the contraindications and the precautions for the technique. Wrist-ankle acupuncture is the most systematic of the modern micro-systems and the easiest to describe. The body is divided longitudinally into six zones on each side, numbered from the midline outward, and every complaint is referred to the zone in which it lies; the needle is then placed not at the site of the complaint but at the corresponding numbered point in a single transverse band around the wrist or around the ankle, according to whether the complaint is above or below the diaphragm. Twelve points on the wrists and twelve on the ankles cover the whole body. The insertion is what makes the method distinctive: the needle is introduced almost parallel to the skin and advanced in the subcutaneous layer, not into muscle, and it must produce no sensation at all - no soreness, no distension, no ache. That is the opposite of the deqi sensation sought in classical acupuncture, and it is the operating criterion of this technique: if the patient feels anything, the needle is too deep and must be withdrawn and reinserted more superficially. So the standard fixes the zone definitions and the point locations in the two bands, the needle length and gauge, the angle and the subcutaneous depth, the direction of advance, the absence of sensation as the check on correct placement, the retention time and the handling of a needle that has gone too deep. Issued on 6 February 2009 and in force since 1 August 2009.
