Professor Deng Zhi Gang 邓志刚, the author of this book known as “Shang Han Lun Classical Formulas: Correspondence Between Herbal Indications and Syndromes 伤寒论 经方: 药证对应” has dedicated many years to using classical formulas (Jing Fang) in the treatment of difficult and complex diseases, developing an effective and easy-to-master system of formula-syndrome and herb-syndrome differentiation. This system remains faithful to the original textual meaning of the Shang Han Lun (Treatise on Cold Damage), without relying on overly esoteric theoretical interpretations. It is characterized by precise targeting, rapid efficacy, and has been extensively validated through clinical practice by the Professor Deng Zhi Gang and his disciples, and fellow practitioners. Under the principle of matching formulas and herbs to their corresponding syndromes, remarkable results can be consistently achieved.

He studied classical formulas under Professor Deng Zhi Gang, a renowned practitioner in Jing fang （Classical Formula ）clinical application, and learned the techniques of needle-knife therapeutic approaches from Professor Gao Yu, an expert in needle-knife medicine.
Dr. Tang specializes in using classical formulas to treat gastroesophageal reflux, bile reflux gastritis, menopausal syndrome, post-stroke sequelae, hypertension, and diabetes management. He adeptly applies Professor Gao Yu’s needle-knife theory—particularly the concepts of “overall force line” and the “chronic nerve stimulation syndrome”—starting with posture assessment and treating diseases through comprehensive needle-knife regulation techniques.
