The operation process of the acupuncture head training model is mainly used for the teaching and skills training of traditional Chinese acupuncture, which can help trainees become familiar with the distribution of commonly used acupoints on the head and the acupuncture methods. This model is simulated and made based on the proportion and anatomical features of the human head. Its surface is marked with the directions of meridians such as the Governor Vessel, the Bladder Meridian of the Foot Sun, and the Gallbladder Meridian of the Foot Shaoyang, as well as the positions of acupoints like Baihui, Taiyang, Fengchi, and Yintang, which is convenient for intuitive learning.

In terms of the operation process, the model needs to be inspected first to ensure that its appearance is intact and the acupoint markings are clear. Before use, the operator should wash their hands in accordance with the regulations and prepare the needles, and keep the operating environment clean and tidy. Secondly, trainees can accurately locate the target acupoints by touching the surface marker points of the model and combining them with anatomical positioning methods. Then, practice inserting needles. One should master the Angle and depth of needle insertion for different acupoints. Some models are equipped with feedback devices that can indicate whether the needling is correct. Teachers can emphasize common misunderstandings in operations during demonstrations to help trainees correct them.

After the operation is completed, the needles should be properly retrieved and the model cleaned to avoid dirt residue. It should be stored in a dry and dark environment to extend its service life. Through standardized operation procedures, the acupuncture head training model can not only help learners master the key points of head acupuncture, but also enhance the safety and intuitiveness of practical training in teaching, laying a solid foundation for subsequent clinical practice.
