The function of the head acupuncture model

The role of the head acupuncture model is mainly reflected in three aspects: acupuncture teaching, clinical operation training and acupoint cognition. This model is designed based on the anatomical structure of the human head, clearly marking common acupoints and meridian directions on the head. It can visually display the position, depth and relative relationship of acupoints, providing learners with a visual practice platform.

In teaching, the head acupuncture model helps students quickly identify commonly used acupoints on the head, understand the distribution of meridians and the contraindicated areas for acupuncture, and makes up for the abstractness of learning solely from books or diagrams. Students can conduct simulation exercises on positioning, needle insertion Angle and depth on the model, thereby mastering the needling technique and operation norms. For beginners, the model provides a safe training environment, avoiding the risks of direct operation on patients and helping to develop a sense of touch and accuracy.

In addition, the head acupuncture model can also be used for clinical skills assessment and teaching demonstrations. Teachers can use the model to explain the combination of acupoints and clinical applications, enhancing the intuitiveness of teaching. Some advanced models are equipped with feedback devices that can provide prompts when the operation is correct, helping learners correct mistakes immediately. Overall, the head acupuncture model plays a significant role in enhancing the quality of acupuncture teaching, strengthening operational skills, and ensuring learning safety.
