Lung Channel
1/31
Which point is used to open the Ren Mai (Conception Vessel), meaning it can treat certain uterine and genital issues such as retention of lochia, genital pain, or urination problems?
LU-7 is the master point (or confluent point) of the Ren channel. The Ren channel runs along the anterior midline and is connected to the uterus and genitals. That is why LU-7 can treat these problems, even though the Lung channel does not go to the uterus or genitals.
