Comments on the Specific Acupoints——My Experiences about the Application of Eight Confluence Acupoints

总结了八脉交会穴在临床运用中的经验及体会 。

In the present paper, the author introduces his/her experiences about the clinical application of eight confluence acupoints [Gongsun (SP 4), Neiguan (PC 6), Waiguan (TE 5), Zulinqi (GB 41), Houxi (SI 3), Shenmai (BL 62), Lieque (LU 7) and Zhaohai (KI 6)]. It is well known that the eight confluence acupoints are located at the extremities connecting the Eight Extraordinary Meridians with the Twelve Regular Meridians. In clinic, Gongsun (SP 4) is frequently used together with acupoints of the Chong Meridian; Neiguan (PC 6) used in combination with those of Yinwei Meridian; Waiguan (TE 5) used in combination with those of Yangwei Meridian; Zulinqi (GB 41) used together with those of Dai Meridian; Houxi (SI 3) used together with those of Du Meridian; Shenmai (BL 62) used in combination with those of Yangqiao Meridian; Lieque (LU 7) used in combination with those of Ren Meridian, and Zhaohai (KI 6) often used in combination with those of Yinqiao Meridian. Clinical practice demonstrates that the eight confluence acupoints are fairly effective in the treatment of disorders occurring in the distal part of the body and in the brain.
