The functions of the four-function acupoint model on the head

The four-function acupoint model for the head is a teaching model of traditional Chinese acupuncture that integrates teaching, demonstration and practical training. It is mainly used to show the distribution of acupoints on the human head and the acupuncture operation methods.

This model is made in the scale of a real human head, with multiple meridians and commonly used acupoints on the head marked on its surface, such as Baihui, Taiyang, Yintang, Fengchi, etc., which can clearly display the anatomical positions and functional attributes of each acupoint. Through a four-function design, the model can achieve training in acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion and electroacupuncture, enabling learners to master multiple clinical treatment skills on the same platform.

It is widely applied in the teaching, research and skills assessment of acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine colleges and universities, helping students systematically understand the theory and treatment principles of the meridians on the head. The four-function acupoint model of the head not only enhances the intuitiveness and operability of teaching, but also promotes the organic integration of theory and practice. It is an important teaching auxiliary device for cultivating professional talents in acupuncture and moxibustion.
