Anmerkungen
- This point's principal role is regulating Qi in the Liver channel's Lower Jiao portion — the genitals, urinary system, and the area around and below the umbilicus.
- Indicated when a condition stays unchanged after eating — neither worsening nor improving.
- It can also be used to help detoxify the Liver.
