Field of the bronze statue
The bronze statue relates to an acupuncture teaching and practicing apparatus, more particularly to an electrical bronze acupuncture statue apparatus.
The Emperor Jen-Jong has ordered Doctor Wang Wei-Yi of Imperial Academy to revise the medical books and check the Bronze Animal Statues in the period of Tensung in Northern Sung Dynasty of China. In Tensung 4 (1026), Doctor Wang Wei-Yi designed a bronze acupuncture statue, which could be used by operators to practice the accuracy for the identification of acupuncture points. Doctor Wang Wei-Yi drew the front view and side view of the human body according to the human shape, and marked the accurate positions of acupuncture points. Doctor Wang Wei-Yi wrote 3 volumes of medical books by collecting the clinical experiences and gathering all acupuncture theories, in which 657 acupuncture points were recorded.
In addition, Doctor Wang Wei-Yi designed and casted two Bronze Mythology Statues. The size of statue was similar to an adult person. The body is composed of a front part and a rear part. The organs were put in the cavity of hollow chest and abdomen. The positions and orientations of meridian points were casted on the surface of Bronze Life Statue, and a hole was drilled in each acupuncture point. When operators want to use the bronze statue to practice the acupuncture, he has to coat a layer of yellow wax on the bronze statue firstly, and fill mercury into the bronze statue, then use the needle to pierce points. If the piercing of needle is accurate, the mercury will flow out from the hole.
However, since from several thousands years ago till right now, there is no advanced pseudo-bronze statue developed for practicing the accuracy for the identification of acupuncture points or teaching and examination purposes. In order to provide the demand for the practice of acupuncture piercing, it is necessary to develop the related techniques of bronze acupuncture statue, so as to save the practicing time and cost and achieve the goal of promoting acupuncture piercing techniques.
