Original abstract

This paper introduces Professor ZHUANG Lixing's experience in treating motor complications of Parkinson's disease (PD) with acupuncture combined with medication. Based on the characteristics of the alternation of "movement and stillness" in PD motor complications, Professor ZHUANG divides these complications into three distinct periods: "movement" stage, "stillness" stage and "alternation" stage, and proposes an integrated approach of acupuncture and medication, with staged treatment tailored to each period. The main acupoints include Jin's three needles to regulate spirit (four spirit needles, Shenting [GV 24], Yintang [GV 24+], Shenmen [HT 7], Sanyinjiao [SP 6]), along with hand tremor three needles (Hegu [LI 4], Quchi [LI 11], Dingchan), foot tremor three needles (Yinlingquan [SP 9], Yanglingquan [GB 34], Taichong [LR 3]), and Du's three needles (Dazhui [GV 14], Jinsuo [GV 8], Mingmen [GV 4]). The primary medicinal formulas include Lingjiao Gouteng decoction, Banxia Baizhu Tianma decoction, Bazhen decoction combined with Buzhong Yiqi decoction, Sini decoction combined with Yougui pills, and Xiaochaihu decoction. This integrated approach effectively alleviates the motor symptom fluctuations in PD patients, helping them maintain a stable life.
