    Abstract:
    In the guidance of qijie (qi street, path of qi ) theory, the thought on diagnosis and treatment with acupuncture and moxibustion for facial spasm is analyzed. Qijie theory is a summary of the horizontal distribution rule of human body and the conclusion of the characteristics of function and indication in a certain area. In terms of spatial location and functional characteristics, facial spasm is related to "head qijie". In treatment with acupuncture and moxibustion, the local acupoints are predominated. Additionally, the distal acupoints are selected based on the characteristics of qijie in pathological condition, "qijie is unblocked even though the obstruction occurs in minor collateral"; and the acupoints for calming the mind are combined based on the relationship between head qijie and the brain function, aiming to regulating the body, qi and spirit. Regarding the techniques of acupuncture and moxibustion, align with the spatial location and hierarchical location of disease, the depth of filiform needle insertion and needling stimulation are specified and the palpation on the local meridians and acupoints are emphasized before acupuncture specially. 在气街理论指导下，梳理面肌痉挛的针灸诊疗思路。气街理论是身形横向分部规律的总结，同时也是对一定区域内功能主治特点的概括。面肌痉挛从空间部位和功能特点上都直指“头气街”。针灸取穴侧重于局部取穴，同时根据病理状态下气街“络绝则径通”的特点进行远端配穴，根据头气街联系于脑的功能特点配合安神、镇静腧穴，旨在调形、调气、调神。刺灸法方面根据空间病位与层次病位，对毫针针刺深度及刺激量加以规范，强调针刺前局部经络腧穴切诊的运用。.
