The six stages of disease are related to
|
cold disorders only
|
|
|
the six stages of disease were first developed
|
by dr. Zhang Zhone Jing in the Shang Han Lun, Circa 220 AD
|
|
|
the shao yang stage is
|
regarded as mid stage between interior and exterior and is sometimes interpreted in the order of succeeding the yang ming stage
|
|
|
When the body's defensive (wei qi) and nutritive qi (ying ) energies are weak
|
due to external or internal disharmonies a yang disease may develop
|
|
|
In the Yang stage of disease
|
the bodies energies are always greater than that of the pathogen, so herbs and points will be used to direct the body's energy to expel the pathogen
|
|
|
the body reacts to invasion of cold in the yang stage by
|
constriction and contraction, the body's pores close and produce less perspiration, blood circulation is constricted producing chills, affecting elimination processes and bringing about tension
|
|
|
The syndromes for each stage and sub-category are
|
the reflection of the pathological changes of the Zang Fu and channels and collaterals (Jingluo)
|
|
|
Because the six stage theory only focuses on cold pathogens
|
later practitioners developed further theories for heat diseases
|
|

protocol is outlined in chart
