摘要

From a Western perspective, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is often di.cult to access. Its origins date back to a time shaped by mystical thinking, whereas modern medicine is evidence-based and grounded in rational thought. It focuses primarily on anatomical and chemical changes in tissues and bodily fluids. As a result, the functional domain between anatomy and the psyche — particularly the autonomic nervous system — has increasingly moved out of the medical focus. Yet it is precisely in this domain that acupuncture needles exert their effects.

This article builds a bridge between TCM and modern Western medicine: Yin, Yang, and Qi are redefined and related to anthroposophic medicine.

Changes in human lifestyles over the past 500 years have given rise to new disease patterns, including system-relevant disturbances. These may impair the effects of functional medicine, including TCM, and should therefore be specifically diagnosed and treated. The therapeutic approach is based on auriculomedicine according to Bahr, which in turn builds on Nogier’s dynamic pulse palpation, the réflexe auriculo-cardiaque (RAC). The article presents a step-by-step guide to diagnosing and treating these system-relevant disturbances.
