 针灸立法  
Principles of Acupuncture and Moxibustion

针灸的立法包括两个内容，一是依据病位，确定选取的经穴；一是依据病性，制定治疗大法，即《灵枢九针十二原》指出的“凡用针者，虚则实之，满则泻之，菀陈则除之”和《灵枢经脉》所说的“热则疾之，寒则留之，陷下则灸之，不盛不虚，以经取之”等。"虚则实之"是指正气不足的人针时用补法以恢复人体的正气，扶正而祛邪；"满则泻之"是指邪气盛满的病人要用泻的方法施术；"菀陈则除之"是指经脉瘀阻的病人用放血法以消除瘀滞；"热则疾之"是指治热性病要疾刺疾出，以退其热邪；"寒则留之"是指寒邪较重的病人应留针；"陷下则灸之"是指元阳暴脱，汗出不止，子官下垂，脱肛等病人，要用灸法以升阳固脱；"不盛不虚，以经取之"是指病的虚实表现不明显时，可用平补平泻的方法取本经腧穴进行治疗。
