Q

describe the SI primary channel

A

From the ulnar side of the little finger it ascends up the arm, connects to LI 14, *zig zags from the inferior fossa to the superior fossa, connects to Du 14, UB41, and UB11. Crosses over to ST 12 and connects with the *heart organ. Descends to Ren 17, passes through the diaphragm to the stomach. Intersects Ren 13 and Ren 12 before entering the small intestine organ.

Q

describe the first branch of the SI primary channel

A

the branch ascends from the supraclavicular fossa to cross the neck and cheek to the outer canthus of the eye to meet GB 1. It then travels around the ear connecting with GB 11, SJ 20 and SJ 22 before entering the ear at SI 19.

Q

describe the small intestine sinew channel

A

from the little finger it binds all the way up to the shoulder, surrounds the upper scapula and connects to the bladder sinew channel. Binds at the mastoid process and enters the ear, ascends to the forehead to connect with ST 8
