CORE DEFINITION

A method for treating flaccidity syndrome (muscular atrophy, paralysis). The Inner Canon states: "In treating flaccidity, take Yangming alone." Because Yangming (spleen and stomach) is the source of qi and blood generation and governs the moistening of the sinews.

SCAFFOLDING EFFECT

Reduce cognitive load

Reconnecting severed supply. Muscle atrophy is not that the muscle is damaged, but that the supply chain is broken. Do not just massage the muscles; repair the spleen and stomach (Yangming). When provisions (qi and blood) are supplied, the muscles will naturally fill out.

Acupuncture treatment emphasizes the Yangming meridian (especially the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian), because the Yangming meridian is abundant in qi and blood and is the source of qi and blood generation. The mechanism is to regulate and supplement qi and blood.
