Abstract:By reviewing the relevant literature on the diagnosis and treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD) by using Governor Vessel in recent years, this paper comprehensively combs the experience, and expounds it from three aspects: the tenderness rule, therapeutic effect and mechanism between GERD and Governor Vessel. It is considered that there is a regular distribution of tenderness response in patients with GERD, especially in the segment of T5-T7, which provides a theoretical basis for the diagnosis of GERD in traditional Chinese medicine. Governor Vessel can achieve a good clinical effect in the treatment of GERD, reduce the symptoms of patients, improve the bad mood of tension and anxiety, fundamentally solve the problem of reflux, improve the quality of life, and the therapeutic effect and markedly effective rate are better than Western medicine treatment alone. Western medicine believes that there is"visceral-somatic reflex" between spine (dorsal segment of Governor Vessel) and viscera, and one of the core contents of traditional Chinese meridian theory is "meridian point-viscera correlation", which is the basis and possible mechanism of Governor Vessel in the diagnosis and treatment of GERD.
