As we have discussed on the main web page, one of the benefits of 423 Meridian Qi Gong is the freedom it gives you to tailor the various techniques to suit your individual needs.
To help you better understand how to do this we have set out some health issues that many women, whether they are young, middle aged or mature may find they are faced with. All of these ways of enhancing the health of specific organs are currently used by many of Prof. Liu’s female patients.
RULE 1.
If you are treating a current health problem, increase the number of times you activate the relevant pressure points, and increase the time you spend activating those points.
RULE 2.
The more severe the problem, the greater the incremental changes should be.
For all women the two critical points are San Yin Jiao (spleen 6) and Zu San Li (stomach 36). The other two points Nei Guan (pericardium 6) and He Gu (large intestine 4) gain importance as one gets older.
1. San Yin Jiao
(spleen 6)
San yin Jiao is located just above the ankle on the inside of each leg. This point is the intersection of the spleen, liver and kidney meridians, so is of special interest to women as it directly and effectively affects
these organs. The liver and kidneys have been found to have a direct effect on hormone
metabolism. This point is largely responsible for regulating and maintaining a healthy hormone balance. The importance of this point in women’s’ health cannot be overstressed.
Women who frequently suffer from period pain, irregular periods or periods that are too light or too heavy/too long or too short, have gained a significant benefit from massaging San Yin Jiao more often and/or for longer than the time suggested for normal health maintenance. It has also been found to be very useful in preventing and treating problems related to the female reproductive system, and in particular the uterus.
Hormone imbalance is a surprisingly common problem faced by women of all ages as hormones influence a lot of organs.Women suffering hormone imbalances can feel depressed, withdrawn or temperamental. 
Some other more common problems, such as dry skin, loss of skin elasticity, wrinkles, and uneven skin color, low energy levels, and loss of interest in sex, are also found to be associated with hormone imbalance. Women going through menopause are at more risk of experiencing many of these problems at the same time.
Increasing the time and/or frequency spent activating San Yin Jiao will greatly improve you body’s ability to prevent or treat these problems. The key is if you are treating a current problem, INCREASE THE NUMBER OF TIMES YOU PERFORM THE TECHNIQUE AND INCREASE THE TIME YOU SPEND ON THE TECHNIQUE. Remember that even if you are on medication you can still safely use any meridian pressure points to improve your health.
Use this important meridian point to prevent health problems or to treat yourself with your own tailor made programme.
2. Zu San Li
(stomach 36)
Zu San Li is sited just below the knee on the outside of each leg. This point has a major effect on boosting the immune system. Recent research in China has shown that this is the best point for boosting the immune 
system in women and men of all ages. More than 90% percent of all people tested showed significant immune system gains in blood tests done immediately after this point was activated. This has direct implications for women’s health.
A deficiency in the immune system can cause muscle pain, and pain in the knees, ankles, elbow
or shoulders this is often diagnosed as the onset of arthritis or arthritis. If the pain moves around or comes and goes, you know the real culprit is an immune system deficiency, not arthritis. Increase the time and frequency you spend activating Zu San Li. The bigger the problem the more time you need to invest to treat the problem.You can adjust to suit your needs, as you start to improve so you can reduce the time and frequency to suit your improved health situation.
The importance of a strong immune system to aid in the prevention and treatment of health problems of all kinds regardless of age cannot be ignored. Your immune system is a major part of your body’s defense system. UTILISE IT, MAKE IT WORK FOR YOUR BENEFIT.
3. Nei Guan
(pericardium 6)
While San Yin Jiao and Zu San Li are considered to be the two most important points for women’s health in TCM, We must not forget the others. Nei Guan is used to prevent breast cancer. If you have this in your family history use this point now and use it often along with Zu San Li.
Nei Guan gains in importance as we start getting older. It is of great use for the heart/lung trachea system and 
prevention or treatment of coronary disease and if you are or were a smoker this has just become VERY important to you. Increase your time and frequency activating this point. It is another way of how you can use the 423 meridian qi gong system to suit your particular situation. It is also very good for those women who suffer from arrhythmia, irregular heartbeat and palpitations. It regulates and normalizes the heartbeat and does so quite quickly. It is good for a speedy recovery from a strenuous workout or hard run where you have an elevated heart rate.
4. He Gu
(large intestine 4)
Now we have come to He Gu (large intestine 4) This is another point that we start paying more attention to, as we get older. Having made it past all the other health obstacles we now find ourselves happily and healthily on the far side of 50. If you have things such as Strokes or Parkinson’s disease in your family history you will need
to step up your activation of this point. He Gu has a direct positive effect on the health of your brain and its potential problems. So to drastically lower the risk of a brain hemorrhage or stroke give this point some extra attention. If you were or are a smoker you will definitely need this meridian point on your list of extra must do’s.
YES these are very personal issues, yes they can directly affect your happiness and well-being you may even find them a bit scary, but help is quite literally at hand. Only as far away as your own fingertips. Join the growing number of women who are being pro-active and taking control of their health. Start using the 423 meridian qi gong health system.
