Wang Weiyi was a renowned acupuncturist in the Song Dynasty. In his childhood, he experienced a nearly fatal illness, which was later cured using acupuncture. From then on, he dedicated himself to the study of acupuncture. While researching acupuncture points, he found inconsistencies and errors in various books. For this reason, he devoted himself to compiling a correct acupuncture point map and created a bronze man for practicing acupuncture points. These two achievements remain important references in the field of acupuncture to this day.
