Twenty-six Acupoints on the Left and Right of the Shoulder and Upper Arm Region
Jianjing (GB21, Shoulder Well) [two points]. Also known as Bojing. Located in the depression on the shoulder. (*Mingtang* has the character "Zhong" here.) It is located one-and-a-half cun anterior to the greater bone above the Keyhole (Quepen). Press with three fingers; the point is where the middle finger falls into the depression. The *Jia Yi Jing* states: only needle five fen. This Bojing pulse is an intersection of the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian, and its qi connects to the Five Zang Organs. If needled too deeply, it may cause fainting and loss of consciousness. One must immediately needle Zusanli (ST36) to direct the Qi downward. Apply tonification first, then sedation. After a short while, the patient will recover as usual. Whenever needling Jianjing, one must always use Zusanli to descend the Qi; this is highly effective. Moxibustion: seven moxa cones. *Mingtang* states: needle four fen. Tonify first, then sedate. Specifically, moxibustion is contraindicated. Do not needle deeply; deep needling causes faintness and stuffiness. In cases where a woman suffers from retained placenta with slight injury and weakness of the limbs, needling Jianjing brings immediate cure. Moxibustion is superior to needling. Moxa seven cones daily, up to one hundred cones. If needling Jianjing, one must use Zusanli to descend the Qi. If Zusanli is not moxa-ed, the Qi will ascend rebelliously.
*Mingtang* says moxibustion is specifically contraindicated, yet also says moxibustion is superior to needling, seven cones daily, up to one hundred cones. This implies moxibustion is permissible. I do not know where this contradicts its own statement. Perhaps Jianjing is generally contraindicated for moxibustion, except in cases of retained placenta and limb weakness?
Tianding (SI10, Heavenly Tripod) [two points]. Located at the junction of the shoulder and Quepen, above the clavicle, in the central depression. Needle eight fen, moxa three cones.
Jugu (SI11, Great Bone) [two points]. Located in the depression between the two diverging bones ascending from the acromion. Moxa five cones, needle one-and-a-half cun. *Mingtang* states: Jigu one point, located at the heart-spleen bone. Moxa three to seven cones daily. Needling is prohibited. If needled, it causes a sensation of inversion/hanging upside down; after about the time it takes to eat one meal, normal posture can be resumed. Needle four fen, apply sedation, do not tonify. Only lie flat after removing the needle. Contraindications are the same. The text below states: Jugu two points, located in the depression between the two rows of bones above the acromion. Moxa one cone. (*Tongren* states: Yunmen (LU2) is two cun lateral to Qihu (ST15) below Jugu; Shufu (BL14) is two cun lateral to Xuanji (CV15) below Jugu; Qihu (ST15) is two cun lateral to Shufu below Jugu.)
*Tongren* states: Jugu one point, located between the two diverging bones above the acromion. *Mingtang Xiajing* agrees. However, *Mingtang Shangjing* states: Jugu one point, located at the heart-spleen bone. Not only does the number of points differ ("one" vs "two"), but the location description differs as well. Could the "one point at the heart-spleen head" refer to a different point than Jugu? Otherwise, it might be a scribal error writing "one" instead of "two". The scapula region corresponds to the Heart and Spleen.
Huizong (SI13, Meeting) [two points]. Also known as [missing character]. Located in the hollow depression three cun anterior to the shoulder tip. Needle seven fen, retain for three breaths. Upon obtaining Deqi, apply sedation. Moxibustion. (*Suwen* annotation: anterior border of the arm, shoulder tip.) Jianyu (LI15, Shoulder Joint) [two points]. Located in the hollow depression between the two bones at the shoulder joint. Locate by raising the arm. Moxa seven cones, up to fourteen cones. Stop when cured. For hemiplegia or paralysis, moxa forty-nine cones. Do not exceed this amount, lest the arm become thin. If wind-disease causes weakness of sinews and bones with chronic non-resolution, moxibustion is safe even if the arm becomes thin. Needling drains heat and Qi from the shoulder and arm. In the Tang Dynasty, Kudi Qin suffered from wind-bi syndrome with inability to extend his limbs. Zhen Quan needled this point and instructed him to shoot arrows with bow and arrow, resulting in recovery. *Mingtang* states: needle eight fen, retain for three breaths, sedate during five inhalations. Moxibustion is less effective than needling. Locate with the arm relaxed. Moxa seven cones daily, increasing to fourteen cones. For hemiplegia, moxa up to two hundred cones. If moxa more, fear the arm becoming thin. If needling wind-bi or wind-paralysis, use fire-moxa; fear not the arm becoming thin. Contraindications are the same. (*Qianjin* states: the midpoint between the two bones at the shoulder tip is named Zhongjianjing. *Waitai* names it Bangu.)
Jianliao (TE14, Shoulder Crevice) [two points]. Located in the depression above the humerus at the shoulder tip. Locate by raising the arm. Needle seven fen, moxa three cones. *Mingtang* states: five cones.
Jianzhen (SI9, Shoulder Truth) [two points]. Located in the depression between the two bone joints below the scapula, posterior to Jianliao. Needle five fen.
Tianzong (SI11, Heavenly Palace) [two points]. Located in the depression below the great bone posterior to Bingfeng. Moxa three cones, needle five fen, retain for six breaths.
Bingfeng (SI12, Holding Wind) [two points]. Located posterior to the small bone on the shoulder. An empty space appears when raising the arm. Moxa five cones, needle five fen.
Shenmai (SI12? Note: Text says "Yu", likely referring to a specific point contextually, possibly Shenmai or similar, but literally "Yu") [two points]. Located in the depression on the upper edge of the scapula below the great bone posterior to Jianliao. Needle eight fen, moxa three cones. *Suwen* states posterior to Jianliao. Locate by raising the arm.
Quyuan (SI13, Shoulder Curved Wall) [two points]. Located in the curved depression of the scapula in the center of the shoulder. Tender to palpation. Moxa three cones, needle five fen. *Mingtang* states: nine fen.
Jianwaishu (SI14, Shoulder External Shu) [two points]. Located on the upper edge of the scapula, three cun from the spine, in the depression. Needle six fen, moxa three cones. *Mingtang Shangjing* states: one cone.
Jianzhongshu (SI15, Shoulder Middle Shu) [two points]. Located on the medial edge of the scapula, two cun from the spine, in the depression. Needle three fen, retain for seven breaths, moxa ten cones.
