- Diffuses LU and dispels cold
- courses channels and frees connecting vessels
LU LUO
LU 7
- discharges LU fire
- downbears counterflow
- clears upper burner heat
LU 5
He Sea
-regulates LU qi and courses LU qi to descend
LU xi cleft
LU 6
- regulates LU qi (breathing)
- supplements taxation & detriment
- clears vacuity heat
- harmonizes construction and blood
LU Shu
UB 13 Fei Shu
clears and diffuses upper burner and courses LU qi
LU front MU
LU 1
- clears construction and cools blood
- downbears counterflow and stops vomiting
- eliminates vexation and settles tetany(often caused by LV qi stagnation)
PC 3
He Sea
- clears heat & eliminates vexatio
- loosens chest and rectifies qi
- downbears counterflow and checks vomiting
PC 6 LUO
*best at relaxing the diaphragm
PC 6 + Ren 17 - loosen chest, frees breathing
PC3 doesn’t loosen chest and rectify qi
- removes obstruction in channel
- stops pain
- calms HT
- opens chest
- regulates blood
- cools blood
- strengthen the mind
PC 4 xi cleft
*symptoms look like onset of HT attack (esp for women), call 911
- frees channels and quicken connecting vessels
- soothes LV and rectifies qi (helps regulate up and down movt of diaphragm to sooth LV
UB 14 Jue Yin Shu
PC shu
- regulates qi and downbears counterflow
- clears LU and transforms phlegm
- loosens chest and disinhibits diaphragm
Ren 17
front mu of PC
*also influential of Qi (movt of qi)
- courses HT qi, clears PC
- stabilizes spirit disposition
- transforms phlegm drool
HT 3 He Sea
- stabilizes spirit disposition by cooling HT fire
- usu fx of he sea is to downbear counterflow, but HT doesn’t get this, instead it gets stagnant
- quiets spirit and regulates HT qi (regulates HT beat)
indications: aphasia
HT 5 LUO
*luo goes to HT, tongue, and eyes, treats aphasia due to HT qi deficiency (sadness and not wanting to speak), or regulates HT beat to help with speaking
- clears heat
- stops sweating
- calms mind
- nourishes HT yin
HT 6 - xi cleft
- stops yin def night sweating
- HT 6 + KD 7 (nourish KD yang) -> stops yin def night sweating caused by yin def.
- nourishes HT and quiets spirit
- clears heat and stabilizes disposition
- loosens chest and regulates qi
UB 15 Xin Shu / HT shu
- disperses congealed phlegm in chest and diaphragm
- transforms damp stagnating in central burner
- clears HT and stabilizes mind
- rectifies qi and frees center
Ren 14 Front Mu of HT
fx of
HT 5 - Luo
HT 6 - xi cleft
HT 7 - yuan
HT 5 - regulate HT qi
HT 6 - nourishes HT yin
HT 7 - tonifies HT blood
HT 7 + KD 6 (tonifies KD yin) = insomnia caused by yin/blood def
HT 7 + KD 6 + SP 6 = tonifies yin & blood
- courses pathogenic heat
- disinhibits joints
- eliminates water damp
- course wind and resolves exterior
- harmonizes qi and blood
LI 11 He Sea (weak he sea fx)
*master pt for any pathogenic heat
LI 11 + SP 10 - skin / heat in blood
LI 11 + ST 9 + Er Jian + GB 20 - high blood pressure
- regulates the waterways
- frees connecting vessels
LI 6 LUO
*helping pair zang by regulating waterways
- clears heat
- stops pain
- expels wind
- acute throat issues
LI 7 Xi Cleft
- courses and regulates LI and SI
- rectifies qi and transforms stagnation
UB 25 Da Chang Shu / back shu of LI
*hollow organ - transforms stagnation
- restores up and down bearing of qi dynamic
- courses and regulates LI
- support earth and transforms dampness
ST 25 - Front Mu of LI
- transforms phlegm damp in channels and connecting vessels
- courses fire qi in triple burner
- phlegm nodule in neck
SJ 10 - He Sea
- channel comes up to neck, this is where we get swelling, nodules, goiter, etc.
- courises fire qi in triple burner - resolves intense migraine headache
