The foot acupuncture model is a teaching aid specifically designed for learning and training the location of meridians and acupoints on the feet and the operation of acupuncture. Its operation norms mainly include the following aspects.

First of all, before use, the integrity of the model should be checked to ensure that the acupoint markings are clearly visible and there is no damage to the foot structure

Secondly, learners need to be familiar with the common meridians and acupoint distributions on the feet, such as Zusanli, Taichong, Kunlun, etc., and clearly understand their corresponding points in the anatomical positions of the feet.

During operation, disinfection treatment should be carried out in accordance with clinical norms. Appropriate needles should be selected, the correct needle-holding technique should be maintained, and the appropriate direction and depth of needle insertion should be mastered based on the characteristics of the acupoints, ensuring gentleness and stability.

During the training process, attention should be paid to the standardization and safety of the techniques to avoid damage to the model due to improper operation. After the drill is completed, the needle should be removed in time, and the surface of the model should be cleaned and maintained to extend its service life. Through repeated operation, learners can not only enhance their ability to identify acupoints on the feet and their sense of touch during acupuncture, but also better integrate theory with practice, laying a solid foundation for clinical acupuncture treatment.
