Ye Family Xinfa Acupuncture — Heritage Tradition
Study individualized point selection in Ye Family Xinfa Acupuncture, centered on yin-yang balance, locating points through bone palpation, and correspondence principles.
About This Course
Course Introduction
Taught by Ye Haokun, Heritage Ye Family Xinfa Acupuncture comes from the family's acupuncture tradition, centring on yin-yang balance in the Huangdi Neijing and the principle of seeking the root of disease. Rather than using fixed points, it studies palpation of bony depressions, prominences and other qi-and-blood response sites, alongside principles such as treating the right for left-sided concerns, lower areas for upper concerns and corresponding joints. Topics include foundational yin-yang needling theory, correspondence principles, palpation-based point location and systematic needling methods.

Learning Experiences
Student Feedback
Locating points by palpating bones gave me a new understanding of point selection, beyond memorizing fixed points.
Correspondences such as addressing left-sided concerns from the right and upper-body concerns from below are explained clearly and work well for review charts.
The course includes many system-based needling methods. I will start by organizing the pain and neck-and-shoulder sections.
