Continuing with the Balm and acupoint techniques, let’s do the next one, the HUG! All 3 wise balms are available now. ❤️🔥
YANG QI ADRENAL HUG BALM
~ example techniques
🔥Moxa balm with a supporting formula of warming herbs, like cinnamon & ginger.
Patterns treated: Yang qi deficiency, Spleen and Kidney Yang qi deificency, Kidney qi deficiency (qi, yin or yang xu), cold extremities, internal cold, qi stagnation, damp, unanchored yang qi, shao yin disharmony (Love & Fear imbalances, trauma healing).
Thermal value: warming but not immediately warming to the skin. A gradual warmth spreads to the extremities from the centre of the torso after about 15 minutes.
Excellent for: fatigue, adrenal fatigue, imbalanced cortisol or adrenalin metabolism, cortisol related insomnia, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, cold people (core or extremities or both), inflammation with cold bi, gynecology, fertility to boost LH and FSH, yang xu loose stools, asthma, frequent urination from cold BL, weak lower back or legs, tired spirit, emotional exhaustion.
SPLEEN AND KIDNEY PATHWAYS
These two pathways are to be combined with either the damp detox technique OR the gynecology and fertility techniques. Read on to see how to use these calf pathways in context.
GYNECOLOGY & FERTILITY with SPLEEN & KIDNEY PATHWAYS:
Have your patient lying on their back. Apply the balm to the chosen points on the SP and KD calf pathways via acupressure only. Continue up to choose relevant points on the abdomen for acupressure only, as suits the treatment.
I recommend using relevant SP, KD and Ren points for each person, rather than just one section. Eg. SP6, KD7, Ren 4, Ren 6 with Yang Qi Balm to support ovulation and healthy oogenesis. Or SP4, SP9, SP10, KD6, whole lower abdomen with Rapid Pain Relief for irregular and painful menstruation. Use any balm as suits.
BLADDER AND DETOX DAMP + SPLEEN & KIDNEY PATHWAYS
Have your patient lying on their front. Massage up the spleen and kidney channels along the calf sections with long strokes. Then continue down the bladder detox pathway on the back starting from BL11. Go up the spleen and kidney pathways on the calves, starting at KD3, then down the bladder pathway on the back. Continue this up/ down loop for 10 minutes. Best with Resolve Damp and combine with the other two balms if they suit the presentation.
🌱🌱🌱 You can combine all 3 Wise Balms, the other two are:
🩸Rapid Pain Relief - for blood stagnation, excellent for gynecology eg. Menstrual pain, endometriosis. I’ll post techniques for this one next.
💧Resolve Damp Move Lymph - for damp, phlegm and Qi stagnation patterns. See my post from two days ago for techniques for this one.
