石学敏院士"气海理论"与"司气海，调血压"针刺技术已在高血压病的防治中取得初步进展，但其降压机制仍缺乏进一步阐释。经临床多年研究验证，石氏"气海理论"与痰湿体质转变间存在重要关联，运用"司气海，调血压"针刺技术可改变原发性高血压患者的"高危体质"，或介入其形成过程，从而对原发性高血压产生防治作用。

Academician Shi Xuemin′s " Qihai theory" and the acupuncture techniques of " Controlling Qihai to regulate blood pressure" have made initial progress in the prevention and treatment of essential hypertension, but the antihypertensive mechanism still lacks further elucidation. After research, there is an important link between Shi′s " Qihai Theory" and the transformation of the phlegm-dampness constitution. With the acupuncture techniques of " Controlling Qihai to regulate blood pressure" , the " high-risk constitution" of hypertensive patients can be changed, or the formation process can be intervened, thus producing a preventive and therapeutic effect on essential hypertension.
