ST29
Stomach 29
The acupuncture point ST 29, known as 归来 (Guilai) in pinyin and "Return" in English, is located 2 cun lateral to the anterior median line (AML) level with CV 3.
Clinical Applications:
Guilai can be used to address various conditions, particularly those involving excess or deficient disorders of the lower abdomen.
While it is uncommon to rely on a single acupuncture point to address a specific Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) diagnostic pattern, ST 29 stands out as a powerful option. It is particularly effective when treating conditions related to Kidney Jing Deficiency and Liver Blood Stagnation.
Incorporating ST 29 into a comprehensive acupuncture treatment protocol may help influence conditions such as:
Amenorrhea
Dysmenorrhea
Erectile dysfunction
Genital pain and swelling
Hernia
Infertility
Irregular menstruation
Leukorrhea
Organ prolapse
Running Piglet Disorder
Seminal emission
