The seven key golden acupoints in the human body

1. The Qihai acupoint is located 1.5 inches below the navel on the midline of the abdomen. To locate it, one can lie on their back; this acupoint is found in the lower abdomen, along the line that connects the navel to the top of the pubis. If this line is divided into ten equal parts, the acupoint is at the 3/10 mark from the navel. 2. The Guanyuan acupoint is located in the lower abdomen, on the anterior midline; by drawing a line from the navel to above the pubis and dividing this line into five equal parts, the acupoint is found at three-fifths of the way down from the navel. 3. Zusanli is located on the anterolateral side of the lower leg, 3 inches below the kneecap, and at a distance of one finger’s breadth from the anterior edge of the tibia. 4. The Hegu point is located on the back of the hand, between the 1st and 2nd metacarpal bones, at the midpoint of the radial side of the 2nd metacarpal bone. 5. The Yongquan acupoint is located on the sole of the foot; it lies at the front one-third of the line connecting the tips of the creases between the 2nd and 3rd toes in the anterior part of the foot and the heel. It is the lowest of all the Shu acupoints in the body, and it is also the primary acupoint of the Kidney meridian. 6. The Tanzhong acupoint is located on the chest, at the midpoint of the line connecting the two nipples. 7. The Fengchi acupoint is located at the back of the neck, below the occipital bone, in the indentations on the outer edges of two large tendons; it is at about the same level as the earlobes. It is a place where wind pathogens accumulate, which is why it is called Fengchi. Finger measurement: When locating acupoints, traditional Chinese medicine relies on the concept of \"body proportions.\" Although the location of acupoints is the same for everyone, the size and width of each person’s fingers vary greatly depending on age, build, and gender. Therefore, one must use one’s own fingers to locate the acupoints. One finger’s width – the width of the first joint of the thumb, that is, one inch. Two finger widths – the sum of the widths of the index finger, middle finger, and their first joints, which is one and a half inches. Four finger widths – the sum of the widths of the second joints of the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger, plus the width of the first joint of the little finger; that is, three inches.
