1. There are also kidney tonifying points in the lung meridian: Chize
[How to select acupoints] Chize acupoint is located at the elbow. When selecting acupoints, sit upright, palm up (palm up), slightly bend the elbow, and there is a thick tendon in the center of the cubital fossa, which is located on the outside of the tendon.
During self massage, you can flex the elbow joint, lean against the chest, press the thumb of the other hand against the outside of the muscle key, and then apply force to the lower part of the muscle key. "You can also use moxibustion with other acupuncture points mentioned above, once a day, for 30 minutes each time, which can play a good role in nourishing the yang and kidney.".
"Chize point is the combined point of the lung meridian, which belongs to water, and the lung meridian belongs to gold. According to the mutual relationship of the five elements, gold generates water, while the kidney belongs to water. Therefore, the water points of the gold meridian have the effect of tonifying the kidney.".
Stimulating this acupoint can tonify the kidney by lowering the lung qi, which is suitable for people with upper excess and lower deficiency. Hypertensive patients who rely on drugs to reduce blood pressure throughout the year often have this constitution, with symptoms of dizziness and weakness at their feet. "If you feel pain, you should continue to massage the chize acupoint twice a day, each side for 5 minutes, until there is no pain.".
For enuresis in children caused by deficiency of kidney qi, Chize point can also be selected as the main acupoint.
2. Pinch the sore throat: Shao Shang
[How to Choose Acupoints] "Shaoshang Acupoint" is located on the finger, the radial side of the tip of the thumb, and 0.1 inch above the corner of the nail root.
3. Star Points on the Lung Meridian: Lie Deficiency
[How to select acupoints] The missing acupoints are located at the radial edge of the human forearm, above the radial styloid process, and 1.5 inches above the wrist transverse line (based on the width of the interphalangeal joint of the thumb of the acupoint taker), between the brachioradialis muscle and the abductor pollicis longus tendon.
Lie deficiency is a famous acupoint, and the "Song of Four General Acupoints" says, "Search for Lie deficiency on the head.". "Lie deficient acupoint is still the intersection of the eight meridians, which connects the Ren meridian and is a pair of Zhaohai acupoints. As the song goes," Lie deficient Ren meridians line the lung system, and Yin Qiao illuminates the throat of the sea diaphragm. "Therefore, massage at Lie deficient acupoint is helpful in treating head and face diseases such as migraine, headache, pharyngitis, and toothache.". For lung diseases such as colds, coughing and asthma, it is also possible to massage the missing points.
Lie deficiency acupoint has the function of communicating the Qi and blood of the Ren pulse. Pressing it upwardly against the meridian for 35 minutes per side can significantly improve symptoms after 2-3 days.
