经筋是十二经脉气血输布于筋骨肌肉关节的体系,在维系筋骨关节、维持脏器稳定与躯体运动平衡方面发挥重要作用。面肌痉挛属于临床疑难病,其发病主要与面神经在颅内因血管压迫受损有关,针灸对本病的治疗效果相对较好,且无不良反应。面肌痉挛在疾病表现和发病机制上都与头颈经筋关系密切,本文在经筋理论指导下,梳理了面肌痉挛的针灸诊疗思路,提出针灸治疗本病在应先在局部解结松筋,行气活血,继而在整体上纠正代偿,调整力线,再根据本病属形神同病的特点加以调神,形神共治。The meridian sinews are a system through which the qi and blood of the twelve meridians are distributed to the bones, muscles, and joints, playing a crucial role in maintaining the stability of the skeletal structure, the stability of the organs, and the balance of body movement. Hemifacial spasm is a complex clinical condition, primarily associated with damage to the facial nerve within the skull due to vascular compression. Acupuncture has relatively good therapeutic effects for this disease, without adverse reactions. Hemifacial spasm is closely related to the head and neck meridian sinews in terms of both clinical manifestations and pathogenesis. Guided by the theory of meridian sinews, this paper organizes the acupuncture and moxibustion treatment approach for hemifacial spasm, proposing that treatment should initially focus on resolving local knots and relaxing the sinews to promote the circulation of qi and blood. Subsequently, on a holistic level, it corrects compensation, adjusts the lines of force, and finally, based on the characteristic that the disease involves both physical and mental aspects, it also addresses the mental aspect to achieve a comprehensive treatment of both form and spirit.
