Acupuncture points for nourishing Yin

Men need to replenish yang, while women need to nourish yin. Nourishing yin for women is actually very beneficial to the body's endocrine system. Because the lack of Yin energy in women's bodies reduces their femininity and also affects the secretion of some hormones in the reproductive system. If you find that you are lacking in Yin Qi, you can adjust it by pressing the Yin-nourishing acupoints. So which acupoints on the human body can nourish Yin?

1. Dadun Point

Dadun point is on our feet. It is very easy to locate the point. You can sit upright or lie on your back to locate the point. Dadun point is located about two millimeters from the edge of the big toe nail, close to the side of the second toe. Regularly massaging the Dadun point can effectively regulate the liver and kidneys, extinguish wind and open the orifices, and it can also calm the mind and nourish the blood. The effect is very good.

In addition to massaging, we can also use moxibustion on this acupoint, which can achieve the effect of clearing the liver and improving eyesight, making our mind instantly clear and refreshed. Since ancient times, Dadun acupoint has been regarded as an important acupoint for calming down and restoring rationality. Dadun acupoint is the starting point of the liver meridian, so massaging Dadun acupoint can nourish the liver and improve eyesight, nourish yin and replenish blood, and the effect is very good.

2. Zhaohai Point

Zhaohai point is also on our feet, located on the inner side of the foot. There is a depression below the tip of the inner ankle, and this depression is the Zhaohai point. When we press the Zhaohai point, we will feel soreness, numbness, swelling and pain. Moreover, Zhaohai point connects to the Yin Qiao meridian of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, so Zhaohai point has the effect of nourishing Yin and is very suitable for massage for people with Yin deficiency. Regularly massaging the Zhaohai point can effectively relieve the symptoms of kidney yin deficiency. It is best not to talk when massaging. Close your mouth and feel saliva appearing in your mouth, and be sure to swallow it into your stomach.

Generally speaking, when we massage the Zhaohai point for three to five minutes, we can clearly feel saliva appearing in the throat, and the pain will be relieved immediately. Because ancient practitioners paid great attention to refining body fluids into essence, if more body fluids are produced, the kidney meridian in our body will naturally become fuller, which will objectively play a role in nourishing yin and strengthening the kidneys.

3. Xuehai Cave

As the saying goes, if you want to replenish blood, you have to find the Xuehai acupoint. Xuehai point is the place where blood produced by the spleen meridian gathers. It has the function of transforming blood into qi and transporting spleen blood. It also has the effect of guiding blood back to the meridians and treating blood diseases. Regularly tapping or massaging the Xuehai point is very effective for women with dysmenorrhea or abnormal menstrual blood flow. If you combine it with massaging the Sanyinjiao point and Taixi point, the effect will be even better. If dysmenorrhea is accompanied by vomiting, massaging this point and kneading the Zusanli point at the same time can immediately relieve the symptoms.

It is most effective to pat and massage the Xuehai point between 9:00 and 11:00 in the morning every day. Massage for ten seconds each time, and massage five times in a row or massage the Xuehai point for three minutes. Then, moxibustion this point in the evening, which has a very good effect on replenishing blood or treating blood stasis.

4. Taixi Point

Taixi point is located on the inner side of the foot, in the depression between the back of the medial malleolus and the heel bone tendon. That is, in the depression between the medial malleolus and the Achilles tendon, it is symmetrical on both sides, which means there are two Taixi points. Taixi acupoint is an important acupoint for health preservation. It is a "large warehouse" for storing the kidney's vitality. The liver belongs to wood and the kidneys belong to water. Trees need water to grow healthily. So if we want to nourish the liver, we must nourish yin. Utilizing the Taixi acupoint to mobilize this nourishing function can better nourish the wood. If our liver is nourished, our eyes will become bright. Therefore, Taixi acupoint can not only nourish yin and blood, but also nourish the liver and improve eyesight.

5. Tianshu Point

Regularly massaging the Tianshu point can keep the stomach meridian and large intestine meridian active at all times, promote the circulation of qi and blood in the stomach meridian, and help transport qi and blood from the stomach meridian to the large intestine meridian. The stomach meridian is full of qi and blood, and the digestive function is also enhanced, which provides sufficient subtle substances to the qi and blood system, providing the most basic power for blood replenishment.

When the large intestine meridian is full of qi and blood, the circulation and excretion functions can be guaranteed to be normal, and diarrhea can be stopped and bowels can be relieved, thus keeping the intestines clean and protecting us from toxins. Therefore, we can often massage the Tianshu acupoint, press down with the thumbs of both hands with moderate force, and massage in circles from the outside to the inside. Massage two hundred times a day to replenish blood and detoxify, with very good results.
