We have been inquiring into the subject of acupuncture training for foreign students who have came to China.Starting from the TCM concept of viewing the situation as a whole,of interdependence and transformation,we emphasize channels,points etc.During the training we use the methods of elicitation,tell the studens about the results frome scientfic research and explain the difficulties of the theory to them.We have improved our translation techniques,so that the students not only understand the meaning of the words,but also grasp their spirits.
