Research and elaboration on quantum effect relations of Tuina manipulations is the weak link of the Tuina basic theoretical system all along. As a therapeutic method, any one can not evade the rule between the physical quatum and therapeutic effect of manipulations so as to make the right selection and control of manipulation in the clinical practice. Lack of the serious analysis and research on the quantum-effect relations of Tuina manipulations in the past led to mistakes in clinical application of manipulations. A lot of clinical practitioners regard manipulations as medications. They assume that the strength, the stimulation, and the duration of manipulations have a simple linear correlation with the therapeutic effects.
Whenever the therapeutic effect is not good enough, they will increase the manipulative force, strengthen the stimulating intensity, broaden the range of joint movement, or prolong the time of treatment to seek a better effect consciously or unconsciously. For example, the so-called "Big Tuina" just reflects clinical practitioners’ viewpoint about quantum effect relations of manipulations in Tuina treatment of spinal diseases. I doubt whether broadening the range of passive movement of the spine will achieve a better effect if the routine Tuina ("Small Tuina") takes little effect. Click to read Scanty Leucorrhea in TCM.
Consequently, to set up the theory of quantum-effect relations of Tuina manipulations is one of the significant projects of the Tuina basic research. If this problem can not be solved, the development of Tuina science will certainly be barricaded. Nonspecificity, multiacting links, and multi-targeting system of Tuina therapeutic effect as well as individual differences of the patients make it difficult to do experimental studies on quantum-effect relations of Tuina manipulations, and moreover, there are still a lot of technical and theoretical problems to be resolved. Understanding this problem from the angle of theoretical analysis may provide a clue or enlightment for experimental research in the future. In order to improve the theoretical system of Tuina science and put forward a theory with reference value for clinical work, we have been considering this problem day and night and have got an elementary understanding on this problem through analyzing the acting mechanism of manipulations in the recent years.
