络病理论是建立在经络理论基础上，并对其进一步的补充和发展。经过近年来的研究和发展，络病理论作为中医理论体系的重要组成部分，在中医药领域极大地促进其诊疗体系的发展及完善。针灸疗法是以辨病、辨证、辨经论治为临床辨治特点，然而络病理论作为祖国医学近现代重要的研究成果在针灸中的应用略显不足。有鉴于此，王建明教授基于多年来的临床经验，以络病理论为指导，提出"辨位论治"，同位同治与异位异治，疗效显著。以此理论统驭针灸临床的法、方、穴、术，并提出空间覆盖、针与病相合等理念，为针灸临床诊疗提供新的思路和方法。

The collateral disease theoryis based on the theory of meridian and collaterals, and its further supplement and development.As an important part of the theoretical system of Chinese medicine, the collateral disease theory developed greatly to improve its diagnosis and treatment system in recent years. Acupuncture and moxibustion therapy is characterized by disease differentiation, syndrome differentiation, and meridian differentiation, however, as an important research achievement in modern Chinese medicine, the application of collateral disease theory in acupuncture and moxibustion appears to be relatively insufficient. In view of this, Professor Wang Jianming put forward the theory of " location differentiation and treatment" based on his years′ of clinical experience and under the guidence of collateral diseases theory. This theory includes using same treatment for same disease location, and using different treatments for different disease locations, and this theory was clinical effective. On the basis of the theory, the clinical methods, prescriptions, acupoints and techniques of acupuncture and moxibustion were unified and controlled, and the concepts of space, combination of acupuncture treatment and disease were put forward, which would provide new ideas and methods for clinical diagnosis and treatment of acupuncture and moxibustion.
