The reasons for the need for women-specific acupuncture models are mainly based on the following:

Physiological structure differences:

There are significant differences in the physiological structure of men and women, especially in the pelvis, breasts, reproductive organs and other areas. These areas may have specific acupoint and therapeutic significance in acupuncture practice. Therefore, the use of women-specific acupuncture models can more accurately simulate the physical characteristics of women, thus ensuring the accurate positioning of acupuncture points.

Targeted treatment:

Women may experience some specific health problems, such as irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, breast disease, etc. These problems require specific acupuncture points and techniques in acupuncture treatment. The women-specific acupuncture model can map out these specific points that are relevant to women's health, thereby helping acupuncture practitioners to formulate treatment plans more precisely.

Improve the teaching effect:

In the teaching of TCM acupuncture and moxibustion, the use of models with similar structures to real people can help students better understand and master acupuncture and moxibustion knowledge. The women-specific acupuncture model allows students to more intuitively understand the anatomy of the female body and thus better learn acupuncture theory and techniques. In addition, by actually operating female-specific models, students can gain a deeper understanding of women-specific acupuncture points and treatment methods, improving practical ability and clinical skills.

Clinical practice needs:

In clinical practice, doctors need to quickly and accurately locate a patient's acupuncture points. Using a women-specific acupuncture model can help doctors better simulate the physical condition of female patients, so as to find acupuncture points more accurately. In addition, the model can also be used as a teaching tool to help doctors explain and communicate cases, improve teaching effect and medical service quality.

The embodiment of technological progress:

With the progress of science and technology, the design and production techniques of acupuncture models are also improving. The emergence of women-specific acupuncture model is the embodiment of scientific and technological progress in the application of acupuncture. These models not only have a high degree of imitation, but also are equipped with advanced photoelectric induction technology, which makes it possible to emit light or sound when clicking acupoints, enhancing the teaching effect and fun.

To sum up, female-specific acupuncture models play an important role in acupuncture teaching and clinical practice. They can more accurately simulate the anatomy of the female body, label specific acupoints related to female health, and improve the teaching effect and quality of medical services. Therefore, it is necessary for acupuncture practitioners to use female-specific acupuncture models.
