About This Course
Course Introduction
Qi Bo Shuangshu Needling Method is taught by Li Xianghui. Based on nutritive and defensive qi theory, it takes regulation of defensive qi and nutritive qi as two core steps. It emphasizes a clear approach using fewer needles and assessment through local tender points and corresponding nutritive-qi 'switches.' Topics include the theory of these two types of qi, thirty nutritive-qi switches, reference-table study of common conditions, and foundational practical topics involving facial paralysis, knees, lower-back pain, and the shoulder region. It suits learners seeking to organize needling study into finding points, identifying correspondences, practicing, and reviewing.

Learning Experiences
Student Feedback
The course explains nutritive and defensive qi separately, with clear reasoning that makes note-taking easy.
I like the table-based approach: establish safety boundaries first, then examine the correspondences.
For beginners, knowing where to look first and next matters most. This course addresses that need.
