Function and Significance: The Large Intestine meridian is responsible for the transformation and excretion of waste, supporting the Lung in controlling the skin and influencing the quality of the skin by facilitating toxin removal.
Nervous System Correlation: The meridian is linked to the ANS and the regulation of peristalsis.Additional Insight:Large
Intestine’s function extends beyond digestion, influencing the body’s
ability to release not only physical waste but also emotional burdens.
- Front Mu Point: ST-25 (Tianshu)
- Location: 2 cun lateral to the center of
the umbilicus on the abdomen.
- Tonification Point: LI-11 (Quchi)
- LI-11: Located at the lateral end of
the transverse cubital crease, this point is associated with the brachial
plexus innervation, particularly involving the radial nerve that runs
near this point. The point is significant for reflexive action in the
forearm's extensor muscles.
- Supplemental Acupuncture Points:
- ST-36 (Zusanli): Aligns with the lower leg
muscles and supports digestive and reflex functions, closely tied to the Solar
Plexus.
- PC-7 (Daling): Located in the carpal tunnel
area, aligning with the muscles controlling grip and extension reflexes.
- Associated Reflexes: Grasp Reflex (flexion), Crossed
Extension Reflex (extension)
- Muscular/Fascial Structures: Abdominal muscles, extensor
muscles of the forearm.
- Fascia Lines: Superficial Front Line (SFL)
- Plexus: Brachial Plexus
