Kneading these two acupuncture points, yin deficiency and fire, dry mouth, immediate effect


Today, Su Mu will introduce to you two acupuncture points that are aimed at yin deficiency and fire and cause dry mouth.


1. Symptomatic acupuncture points - column missing acupoints


It belongs to the hand Taiyin lung meridian, which has the effect of relieving and treating cough and asthma, cough, sore throat, cold, bronchitis and so on.



The column is missing on the inside of our wrist, where we can feel the pulse beating. Open the palms of your hands, cross your hands, straighten your wrists, place your index finger on the side of your wrist, and reach the tip of your index finger to be the missing point.


Interestingly, when we gently rub on this acupuncture point, we will find that the mouth slowly begins to secrete fluid, which we call Jinli, that is, some essence substances of human yin fluid. The fluid begins to moisturize, and the dryness of the mouth begins to relieve immediately, so this is a symptomatic acupuncture point.


2. The acupuncture point of the root cause - Zhaohai acupoint


It belongs to the foot and yin and kidney meridians, and has the effect of treating dry throat, red and swollen eyes.



First find the tip of our inner malleolus, from the tip of the inner malleolus vertically down 0.4 inches, there is an obvious depression, there will be obvious soreness when pressed, this is our Zhaohai acupoint.


Su Mu suggested that everyone should rub the sea cave at the evening time, because night is the best time to nourish yin.


You can sit on the bed, put your right foot on the sitting leg, press the right Zhaohai acupoint with the thumb of your left hand, so that the acupuncture point has a local soreness feeling, rotate and knead, and press and knead for 5-10 minutes on each side.



This is an acupuncture point that treats the root cause, and since it is an acupuncture point that treats the root cause, it will not be effective immediately, and it requires you to persist for a long time.


In the law of action of acupuncture points, we found that all acupuncture points close to the wrist or ankle have a pharyngeal effect on our throat, the kidney is the foundation of the body, and the kidney yin is also the root of the yin of the body.


Therefore, we come to this acupuncture point to nourish yin and clear heat, which can moisten dryness, improve the throat, and play a significant role in relieving the dry mouth and tongue caused by yin deficiency and fire.


A Lie Missing acupoint of the Taiyin Lung Meridian close to our wrist, and a Zhaohai acupoint of the Zushaoyin Kidney Meridian at the ankle, these two acupuncture points are matched together, which is called the Eight Veins Intersection Acupoint.
