1. Qiayin (Jing-Well Point)
Location: Located at the lateral corner of the nail of the fourth toe.
Indications and Treatment: Hypochondriac pain, cough with reversed qi leading to dyspnea. Restlessness and heat in the hands and feet. Anhidrosis. Carbuncles and sores. Dry mouth and painful mouth. Throat obstruction (Hou Bi). Tongue stiffness. Deafness. Tendon spasm. Inability to lift the elbow.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Needle insertion depth is 1 fen. Moxa moxibustion: 3 moxa cones.
Commentary: Qiayin is the Jing-Well point where the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian emerges. It is located posterior to the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian and serves as the starting point for the Lower Shu-Stream points of the Hand-Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian. Shaoyang represents one Yang; Yang roots in Yin, hence it is named Qiayin. There is also a Qiayin acupoint on the superior aspect of the Wangu bone of the head, which is an intersection of the Hand-Shaoyang, Foot-Shaoyang, and Foot-Taiyang meridians, thus sharing the same name.
2. Xiaxi (Ying-Spring Point)
Location: Located in the depression anterior to the proximal interphalangeal joint, between the metatarsals of the fifth and fourth toes.
Indications and Treatment: Fullness and distension in the chest and hypochondrium. Anhidrosis in cold damage febrile diseases. Red eyes. Swelling of the mandible. Chest pain and deafness.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Needle insertion depth is 2 fen. Moxa moxibustion: 3 moxa cones.
Commentary: Xiaxi is the Ying-Spring Water point where the Qi of the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian flows. Here, the Lower Shu-Stream of the Sanjiao intersects with the Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoyang meridians. The acupoint is narrow, hence the name Xiaxi.
3. Linqi (Shu-Stream Point)
Location: Located in the depression posterior to the proximal interphalangeal joint of the fifth and fourth toes, 1.5 cun distal to Xiaxi.
Indications and Treatment: Chest fullness and asthma. Vertigo. Heart pain. Scrofula (Ma Dao Yang Lou) in the supraclavicular fossa and axilla. Generalized bi-syndrome with wandering pain. Reversal syndrome with asthma and inability to walk. Malaria occurring in the late afternoon, characterized by shivering and aversion to cold. Irregular menstruation in women. Distension and fullness in the costal margin. Mastitis.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Needle insertion depth is 2 fen. Moxa moxibustion: 3 moxa cones.
Commentary: Linqi is the Shu-Stream point where the Qi of the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian pours. On the head, there is another Linqi point located 0.5 cun within the hairline above the eye, which is an intersection of the Foot-Shaoyang, Foot-Taiyang, and Yangwei Vessels. Needling this point can treat various eye disorders such as vertigo and nebula formation due to tearing. Named "Linqi" because it overlooks from a high position. The foot Linqi point is also an intersection of the Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoyang meridians, hence the same name. This point connects upward to the Dai Mai (Belt Vessel); in the Ling Gui Ba Xue method, this is an open point used according to time, possessing great efficacy. Later acupuncture practitioners distinguished them as Mu Linqi (Eye Linqi) for the head point and Zu Linqi (Foot Linqi) for the foot point. Since the starting points of the Foot-Taiyang and Foot-Shaoyang meridians are near the inner and outer canthi, and tears originate from the eyes, it is called Linqi.
4. Qiuxu (Yuan-Source Point)
Location: Located in the depression anterior and inferior to the lateral malleolus, 5 cun distal to Xiaxi.
Indications and Treatment: Chest and hypochondriac fullness, pain causing dyspnea. Alternating chills and fever. Nebula formation in the eyes. Head swelling. Chronic malaria with chills. Wei-Jue syndrome (flaccidity and cold limbs). Soreness and pain in the waist. Pain in the hip pivot. Tendon spasm. Thin lower legs and calves with a hard abdomen. Acute hernia.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Needle insertion depth is 5 fen. Moxa moxibustion: 3 moxa cones.
Commentary: Qiuxu is the Yuan-Source point of the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian. A large mound is called Xu. The Book of Songs (Odes of Bei) states, "Ascend that Xu," pronounced with the rising tone, implying elevation. The six points of the Gallbladder Meridian rise here, hence named Qiuxu.
5. Yangfu (Jing-River Point)
Location: Anterior to the fibula above the lateral malleolus and at the end of the Juegu (fibular notch). That is, midway between Guangming (GB37) and Xuanzhong (GB39), 4 cun above the lateral malleolus.
Indications and Treatment: Waist feeling loose and weak as if sitting in water. Swelling of the skin below the knee. Tendon contraction. Soreness and pain in all joints. Wei-Bi syndrome. Scrofula. Neck and nape pain. Throat obstruction. Anhidrosis. Chills. Malaria. Soreness and pain in the waist with inability to stand or walk.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Needle insertion depth is 5 fen. Moxa moxibustion: 3 moxa cones.
Commentary: Yangfu is the Jing-River point where the Qi of the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian travels. Yang meridians belong to Fire, while the Gallbladder is Yang Wood. Wood generates Fire, and Fire flares upward. This point assists the ascent of Yang Qi. Located anterior to the fibula above the lateral malleolus at the end of the Juegu, it is named Yangfu.
6. Yanglingquan (He-Sea Point)
Location: In the depression lateral to the knee. Specifically, the concave area anterior to the lateral condyle of the tibia, one cun below the knee. Take the point while squatting or sitting.
Indications and Treatment: Inability to flex the knee when extended. Cold Bi syndrome with numbness in the feet. Hemiplegia due to wind-stroke. Cold feet lacking blood color.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Needle insertion depth is 6 fen. Moxa moxibustion: 7 moxa cones.
Commentary: Yanglingquan is the He-Sea point where the Qi of the Foot-Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian enters. This point protrudes laterally on the knee, higher than a mound (Qiu). Below this point are Waixiu (GB36) and Qiuxu (GB40), diagonally opposite to Lingquan (LR34) on the medial side of the knee. Hence named Yanglingquan. Any disease located high and lateral can be treated by needling this point.
