Fourteen Acupoints on the Fourth Row of the Abdomen, Left and Right
Qimen (LR14): Two acupoints. The Front-Mu point of the Liver. Located 1.5 cun lateral to Burong (ST19), directly at the end of the second rib below the nipples. Needle depth: 0.4 cun; Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones. (*Qianjin Fang* records: directly at the end of the second rib below the nipples, 1.5 cun lateral. Another view states: 1.5 cun directly below the nipple.)
Riyue (GB24): Two acupoints. The Front-Mu point of the Gallbladder. Located in the depression 0.5 cun below Qimen (LR14). Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones; Needle depth: 0.5 cun. (*Qianjin Fang* names it Shenguang, also known as Danmu.)
Fuai (SP16): Two acupoints. Located 1.5 cun below Riyue (GB24). Needle depth: 0.3 cun.
Daheng (SP15): Two acupoints. Located 3.5 cun below Fuai (SP16), directly lateral to the umbilicus. Moxibustion: 3 moxa cones; Needle depth: 0.7 cun.
Huangshu (KI15) is 1.5 cun lateral to the umbilicus; Tianshu (ST25) is 2 cun lateral to the umbilicus; Daheng (SP15) is 4.5 cun lateral to the umbilicus. Their distance from Zhangmen (LR13) sums to 6 cun. *Nan Jing Shu* states that Zhangmen is 2 cun above the umbilicus and 9 cun lateral, which is questionable.
Fujie (SP14): Two acupoints. Also known as Changku. Located 0.3 cun below Daheng (SP15). Needle depth: 0.7 cun; Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones.
Fushe (SP13): Two acupoints. Located 3 cun below Fujie (SP14). It is the intersection of the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian, Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian, and Yinwei Vessel. These three meridians enter the abdomen vertically, connecting the Liver and Spleen, linking the Heart and Lungs, and ascending from the hypochondrium to the shoulder. This represents the divergent pathways of the Taiyin, Shaoyin, and Yangming meridians. Needle depth: 0.7 cun; Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones.
Chongmen (SP12): Two acupoints. Also known as Cigong. Located 5 cun above Daheng (SP15), in the middle of the arterial pulse between the two ends of the transverse bone below Fushe (SP13). Needle depth: 0.7 cun; Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones.
The above fourteen acupoints are each located 4.5 cun from the midline of the abdomen.
Twelve Acupoints on the Lateral Hypochondrium, Left and Right
Zhangmen (LR13): Two acupoints. Also known as Changping and Xieliao. The Front-Mu point of the Spleen. Located laterally to Daheng (SP15), directly opposite the end of the floating ribs at the level of the umbilicus. To locate, lie on the side, flex the upper leg while extending the lower leg, and raise the arm.
Needle depth: 0.6 cun; Moxibustion: 100 moxa cones. Ming Dynasty texts state: 7 moxa cones per day, up to a maximum of 500. Contraindications are the same as above. (*Nan Jing Shu* and *Canghui*: At the floating ribs lies Zhangmen. Zang organ diseases can be treated here, referring to the short ribs under the hypochondrium, 2 cun above the umbilicus and 9 cun lateral.)
Jingmen (GB25): Two acupoints. Also known as Qijie and Qifu. The Front-Mu point of the Kidney. Located at the root of the floating ribs in the waist, adjacent to the spine, near the iliac bone. Moxibustion: 3 moxa cones; Needle depth: 0.3 cun. Retain the needle for seven breaths.
Daimai (GB26): Two acupoints. Located in the depression 1.8 cun below the floating ribs. Needle depth: 0.6 cun; Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones. Ming Dynasty texts note: 7 moxa cones. (The acupoint encircles the body like a belt, binding the various meridians. *Qianjin Fang* states: at the end of the floating ribs.)
Wushu (GB27): Two acupoints. Located 3 cun below Daimai (GB26). One view states: in the depression 1.5 cun lateral to Shuidao (ST28). Needle depth: 1 cun; Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones. Ming Dynasty texts note: 3 moxa cones.
Shuidao (ST28): Two acupoints. Located 5.3 cun below Zhangmen (LR13). Needle depth: 0.8 cun; Moxibustion: 3 moxa cones.
Juliao (GB29): Two acupoints. Located 8.3 cun below Zhangmen (LR13), in the depression above the iliac bone. Moxibustion: 3 moxa cones; Needle depth: 0.8 cun.
Xietang: Two acupoints. Located in the depression between the two bones under the axilla. To locate, raise the axilla. Moxibustion: 5 moxa cones.
The *Mingtang Jing* of the Ming Dynasty includes the Xietang acupoint, indicating its indications as chest and hypochondriac fullness, belching, hiccups, wheezing with counterflow qi, yellow eyes, and blurred distant vision. However, it is absent in the *Tongren Yuxue Zhenjiu Tujing*, so it is appended here.
