Symbol of Chinese Medicine

Many generations in China have learned the ancient therapy method of acupuncture from a bronze man that is now 1,000 years old. The statue is regarded as a symbol of Chinese medicine par excellence and is held in the highest esteem in China and around the world: in 2016,
Chinese President Xi Jinping presented the World Health Organization (WHO) with an "acupuncture bronze man".
Students can use the 3D model to precisely read all the pathways and acupuncture points. Filled with water on the inside and covered with a layer of wax on the outside, the pathways with acupuncture points are no longer visible. For the examination, the students had to place the needle correctly, which could be recognized by the water flowing out. This had been common practice for examining students since the Song Dynasty around 1000 AD.

True to original single copy in practice

A faithful copy of the bronze man, specially made in Nanjing, can be found in the practice of Prof. Dr. med. Carl-Hermann Hempen & Kollegen in Munich-Schwabing. The renowned specialist in traditional Chinese medicine was one of the few Western TCM doctors to have such a statue brought to Germany. In his practice, the bronze man has symbolized the philosophy and values of TCM with its pillars for 30 years now:

- Acupuncture

- Qigong and Taiji

- Tuina massage and grip technique

- Dietetics / Nutrition

- Phytotherapy, probably the most important component of TCM

The Chinese remedies, unlike drugs of Western medicine, are not often outdated after a few years, but have endured over the centuries.
