Zhongwan (CV12), also known as Taicang, is the Front-Mu point of the Stomach. It is located one cun below Shangwan (CV13), situated midway between the xiphoid process and the umbilicus. Moxibustion of seven moxa cones (one "yi" equals seven) treats Qi accumulation in the five Zang organs. The *Jia Yi Jing* states: This point is where the Hand Taiyang, Hand Shaoyang, and Foot Yangming meridians originate and converge with the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel). Pathogenic factors knot within the "Qi bag," a location inaccessible to acupuncture and herbs; therefore, moxibustion on the Huang Mu (Blindness-Mu) points is indicated. The number of moxa cones should correspond to the patient's age (Sui Nian Zhuang).
There are two Huang Mu points. One can be located by measuring diagonally from the nipple to the umbilicus and taking the midpoint, or by measuring vertically downward from the nipple to the head level. This point descends rebellious Qi. Moxibustion of 100 cones on Feishu (BL13) and 50 cones on Taichong (LR3) is also prescribed.
For pain below the umbilicus radiating into the genital region, occurring at irregular intervals due to Cold Qi, moxibustion of 100 cones on Quanyuan (CV4) is indicated. This point is located three cun below the umbilicus. Additionally, salt-moxibustion on the umbilicus for 14 cones (two "yi") is recommended.
For shortness of breath and inability to speak, moxibustion of 100 cones on Tianjing (TE10) is indicated. This point is located between the two tendons behind the elbow. Furthermore, moxibustion corresponding to the patient's age on Dazhui (GV14); 100 cones on Feishu (BL13); 100 cones on Ganshu (BL18); 100 cones on Chize (LU5); seven cones on the crossing vessel above the space between the fourth and fifth fingers; and ten cones total on the tips of all ten fingers are prescribed.
For deficiency of Qi, moxibustion corresponding to the patient's age is applied below the fifth thoracic vertebra.
For Ben Tun (Piglet Rushing) syndrome, moxibustion of 100 cones on Qihai (CV6) is indicated. This point is located one and a half cun below the umbilicus. Additionally, 100 cones on Guanyuan (CV4) are prescribed, located three cun below the umbilicus.
For Ben Tun syndrome with Qi rushing to the heart causing dyspnea, moxibustion of 50 cones on Zhongji (CV3) is indicated. Zhongji, also known as Yuquan, is located four cun below the umbilicus.
For Ben Tun syndrome with Qi attacking up and down, causing pulling pain between the abdomen and waist, moxibustion of 100 cones on Zhongfu (LU1) is indicated. This point is located in the intercostal space of the third rib above the nipple.
For Ben Tun syndrome, moxibustion of 100 cones on Qimen (LR14) is indicated. This point is directly below the nipples at the lateral end of the second rib, one and a half cun lateral.
For Ben Tun syndrome with Qi attacking up and down, moxibustion of 14 cones (two "yi") on Siman (KI25) is indicated. These points flank Dantian, spaced three cun apart laterally, corresponding to eight cun below the epigastrium and the transverse crease below the umbilicus.
For Ben Tun syndrome accompanied by abdominal swelling, moxibustion of 100 cones on Zhangmen (LR13) is indicated. Zhangmen, also known as Changping, is located outside Dahan (SP15), directly opposite the umbilicus and the costal margin.
For Lung Wind Qi leading to flaccidity and collapse, fullness and distension of the four limbs, wheezing, rebellion of Qi, and chest fullness, moxibustion of two cones on each side of Feishu (BL13) is indicated. Feishu is opposite the nipple; using a cord to measure, it is located below the third thoracic vertebra, one and a half cun lateral on both sides.
For vomiting and rebellious Qi, moxibustion of 21 cones (three "yi") on Chize (LU5) is indicated. Chize is located in the transverse crease of the elbow, posterior to the wrist.
For borborygmus resembling thunder in the abdomen, undigested food, and rebellious Qi, moxibustion of seven cones on Taicang (Shangwan, CV13), located one cun below Shangwan, is indicated.
For Lung Distension with Qi rushing to the hypochondrium causing hot pain, moxibustion corresponding to the patient's age on Yindu (ST15) is indicated. This point is located one cun lateral to either side of the epigastrium. The epigastrium is located three cun below the heart pit.
