[Four General Acupoints Song] For abdominal and epigastric disorders, retain Zusanli (ST36); for lower back and back disorders, seek Weizhong (BL40); for head and neck disorders, search for Lieque (LU7); for facial and oral disorders, He Gu (LI4) collects them.
[Qianjin Xue Ge] Zusanli (ST36) and Neiting (ST44) are the wonderful secret for treating abdominal and epigastric disorders; Quchi (LI11) and Hegu (LI4) can thoroughly cure head and facial disorders; lower back and back pain are interconnected, seek Weizhong (BL40) and Kunlun (BL60). Head and neck disorders are not beyond the use of Qianjin acupoints.
First, Zusanli (ST36) is located three cun below the knee, between the two tendons on the lateral side of the tibia. It effectively unblocks heart and epigastric fullness, treats cold in the stomach, borborygmus and diarrhea, leg swelling and knee soreness, emaciation due to Cold Damage (Shanghan), Qi distension, and various miscellaneous diseases. After the age of thirty, acupuncture and moxibustion at this point can improve heavy eyelids. The location must be precise; needle eight fen deep, moxa three zhu for safety.
Second, Neiting (ST44) is on the lateral side of the second toe, belonging to the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian. It treats cold extremities, preference for quietness and aversion to sound, urticaria, sore throat, frequent yawning, and toothache. It treats deficiency conditions where one cannot eat; after needling, the patient feels refreshed. (Needle three fen, moxa three zhu.)
Third, Quchi (LI11) is taken by bending the arm; seek the depression at the lateral end of the elbow crease. It treats elbow pain, hemiplegia with inability to extend the arm, inability to draw a bow, flaccid sinews and fear of combing hair, laryngeal obstruction with suffocating breath, unremitting fever, and widespread skin sores and leprosy-like lesions; upon needling, recovery is immediate. (Needle five fen, moxa three zhu.)
Fourth, Hegu (LI4) is in the tiger's mouth, between the diverging bones of the first and second metacarpals. It treats headache and facial swelling, malaria with alternating chills and fever, dental caries and epistaxis, trismus with inability to speak. Needle five fen deep, and the person immediately finds peace. (Moxa three zhu.)
Fifth, Weizhong (BL40) is in the popliteal fossa, at the center of the transverse crease and the arterial pulse. It treats low back pain with inability to rise, a heavy sensation pulling along the spine, soreness with stiff sinews unable to stretch, wind-bi syndrome that recurs unpredictably, and knees difficult to flex or extend; upon needling, health is restored. (Needle five fen, moxibustion prohibited.)
Sixth, Chengshan (BL57), named Yufu, is located in the fleshy separation between the bellies of the gastrocnemius muscle. It treats waist pain, hemorrhoids and difficulty in defecation, jiaogix disease (foot qi) and knee swelling, tossing and turning with trembling pain and soreness, cholera-like disorder with muscle spasms; upon needling the point, peace is found. (Needle seven fen, moxa three zhu.)
Seventh, Taichong (LR3) is behind the big toe of the foot, two cun posterior to the joint. The pulsation here indicates life and death prognosis; it treats convulsive epilepsy and wind-stroke. It treats sore throat and chest/epigastric fullness, inability to walk with both feet. It treats seven types of hernia and unilateral scrotal swelling, cloudy vision, and also treats low back pain; there is divine efficacy in the needle. (Needle three fen, moxa three zhu.)
Eighth, Kunlun (BL60) is sought above the calcaneus, posterior to the lateral malleolus. It treats muscle spasms, low back and sacral pain, sudden asthma and chest fullness. Walking is impossible, and any movement causes groaning. If one seeks well-being, one must needle this point. (Needle five fen, moxa three zhu.)
Ninth, Huantiao (GB30) is at the hip pivot; take it while lying on the side with the leg flexed. It treats inability to look back due to waist injury, cold wind and damp-bi. Pain connects the thigh, hip, and buttocks; turning over is difficult accompanied by sighing. After acupuncture and moxibustion, the illness is eliminated in an instant. (Needle two cun, moxa five zhu.)
Tenth, Yanglingquan (GB34) is below the knee, one cun anterior to the fibular head. It treats knee swelling and numbness, cold-bi and hemiplegia. Lifting the leg is impossible; sitting and lying down resembles a decrepit old man. Needle six fen deep; its divine efficacy is extraordinary. (Moxa two zhu.)
Eleventh, Tongli (HT5) is posterior to the radial side of the wrist, one cun from the wrist crease. When one wishes to speak but cannot produce sound, it treats restlessness and palpitations. In excess patterns, limbs feel heavy, and the head, cheeks, and face turn red. In deficiency patterns, one cannot eat, and sudden aphonia occurs with a sallow complexion. Gently insert the filiform needle; only then believe in its divine power. (Needle three fen, moxa three zhu.)
Twelfth, Lieque (LU7) is on the radial side of the wrist, found where the index finger rests when crossing hands. It treats migraines, generalized wind-bi with numbness. It treats frequent accumulation of phlegm and saliva, and trismus with inability to open the teeth. If one understands tonification and seduction techniques, the effect is immediate. (Needle three fen, moxa five zhu.)
