entry exit points for colon to stomach channels

Submitted by Tao29 on Sat, 10/11/2008 - 4:42am

Colon 20 crosses to the opposite side of the body at the nose.  Does anyone know if it it crosses back to its original side before entering Stomach 1 or if it stays crossed over and continues to Stomach 1 on the opposite side? This is important when chasing entry exit blocks.

This is a good question and

This is a good question and I may not be the best person to ask as I don't use the five element theories of the entry/exit points very often.  My understanding is that yes, LI 20 will connect with the stomach meridian at ST 1 on the opposite side of the body.
