Qi pathologies

• Heart Qi :Descends and partly goes up
• Spleen Qi :Goes upwards
• Stomach Qi :Goes downwards
• Large intestine Qi : Goes downwards
• Liver Qi :Goes in all direction but mainly

Pain due to Qi stagnation
• The pain caused by qi stagnation can be
identified as:
• Dull or aching in nature
• Mobile, moving from place to place within the
body
• Relieved by heat, pressure or movement
Shock can kill
• Sp8
Acute menstrual pain , Dysentery,
Nocturnal emissions and
spontaneous seminal loss
especially Harmonizes
Qi and Blood
• Ht6
• Night sweats, Hot flashes , Chest pain
• Promotes diaphoresis (sweating, especially to an unusual degree as
a symptom of disease or a side effect of a drug.)
• Sweat is the fluid of the Heart due to its relationship with Blood
• SI6
• Pain in the shoulders & neck
• Tonify for longevity
• Bl63
• Acute lower back pain
• Seizures/epilepsy
Ki5
Painful urination
Menstrual pain
Lung Bi-obstruction
Pain of Kidney Stone
• Bl-59:-
• (Xi Cleft point of
• Yangchiao Mai)
• Pain of the lower limbs
• Blindness in one eye
• Eye pain
• Kid-8
• (Xi-Cleft point of
• Yinchiao Mai)
• Uterine and testicular pain
• GB35 (XiCleft point of Yangwei Mai)
• Chest/rib pain radiating
• towards the back
• Lower back pain
• Ki9 (XiCleft point of
• Yinwei Mai)
• Urogenital pain due to
• masses (e.g., kidney stones),
• Shan Pain
• Aids in detoxification
• Moves stagnation
• during
• the detoxification process
• (like constipation)
• P4
• Chest/heart pain

• More calming than Ht6
• SJ7

• Liv6
• Pain related to hernias
• Retention of placenta
• Genital pain
• Kidney stones
• VI) ZhiTong Points
• Points which by themselves have the ability to
relieve pain
• LI11 or LI12
• For stiff (trigger) fingers
• Needle superficially
• Circular dispersal
• Snap muscles
• in that area
• Find where you can get the most “snap”
• St4 and St6
• Analgesic points for the face
• St26
• Relieves pain along the ST6
• trajectory of the
• Stomach meridian
• St31 St37
• All analgesic points
• St37 treats LI pain
• St26 also treats LI pain;
• it is a local point
• St41 and 42
• Analgesic points
• (St42 slightly less)
• Sp6
• Pain along the trajectory
• of the Spleen meridian
• Sp12 and Sp13
• Analgesic points
• Blood letting
• (for tailor position)
• Ht8 and Ht1
• Analgesic for pain
• along the Heart meridian
• (Ht1 slightly less so)
What did we learn?
• 1) Locate the problem area and understand which
meridian is responsible
• 2) Release the exterior
• 3) Do blood letting ( Acubekam or Hijama
therapy)
• 4) Use specific point manipulation
• 5) Use needling on Xi cleft or bleed it
• 6) Use dual points which interact
• 7) Keep the patient in correct position
Acute disorders practical examples at
my clinic
• 1) Epilepsy or Vasovagal syncope : K1 and or
DU26.
• Du26 yin and yang separates K1 is the most yin
point which can treat brain.
• 2) Headache : Bleed corresponding distal points
like GB44,SJ1,BL67,ST45. Distal treats proximal
diseases
• 3) Vertigo : Empirical point SI6
• Ask the patient to do
Low BP point
• Shaoshang LU11 has a particularly strong
action on the opposite end of the channel
and may be needled or pricked to bleed in all
acute disorders of the throat and surrounding
tissues due to excess heat and fire poison.
